Semiconductor

When companies in the semicondcutor and electronics industry look for flow instrumentation they have three things in mind: Clean, clean and clean.

When you are working with components that can be smaller that grain of dust and are completely sensitive to static discharge every step must be taken to avoid compromising the cleanliness of the manufacturing process. It is for this reason that many companies are turning to non-invasive measurement techniques and specifically Katronic Technologies for their measurement solutions.

Our KATflow transit-time flowmeters are ideal for the measurement of the ultra pure water used in the electronics industry. Furthermore, as semiconductor and circuit board manufacturers use highly toxic chemicals such as hydrofluoric acid, non-invasive flowmeters also promote improved safety when compared to standard measurement techniques.

By monitoring flows through critical pipelines it is possible to ensure the quality of the product, reduce wastage and eradicate costly plant shut downs.

Typical Applications:
• Ultrapure water measurement
• Monitoring of hydrofluoric acid systems
• Pump testing
• Board cleaning system metering
• Effluent process discharge testing
