PC100 Series Pressure Controllers for Gases

Accuracy under pressure. Precision under control.
Models PC115 / PC125

The PC100 Series pressure controllers and meters combine a host of high-performance technology features to deliver a new level of pressure control accuracy and reliability to demanding semiconductor, vapor deposition and other ultra-precise manufacturing processes.

Built on the proven Brooks GF100 mass flow controller technology, the PC100 Series features a high-purity all-metal flow path, enhanced sensor technology engineered specifically to eliminate sensor drift and a user interface and device diagnostics capability that makes it much easier to conduct device evaluation and troubleshooting, resulting in limited service interruption and reduced downtime.

PC100 Series Data Sheet

Features

  • Response time: <1 second
  • Full-scale flow rates up to 10 slm
  • Transducer pressure range: 1000 Torr FS
  • All-metal seal flow path: 5µ inch Ra surface finish
  • PC125 with embedded flow meter includes a highly corrosion-resistant Hastelloy® C-22 flow sensor combined with high-speed ARM processor
  • Fast-acting diaphragm-free valve assembly
  • High-visibility LCD display with easily accessible push button for local indication of flow, temperature and network address
  • Independent diagnostic/service port
  • DeviceNet™ protocol

Benefits

  • High-performance components enable fast response and setting time for improved pressure control
  • Reduced diverted gas consumption and associated abatement costs
  • All metal, corrosion resistant SEMI F20 compliant wetted flow path with overall reduced surface area and un-swept volumes ensures faster dry-down during purge steps
  • Long-term thermal or pressure sensor device stability maximizes yield and throughput
  • User-programmable start-up function for processes requiring a slow-ramped pressure control

Applications

  • Semiconductor advanced etch tools
  • Thin-film chemical vapor deposition systems (CVD, MOCVD, PECVD, ALD)
  • Physical vapor deposition (PVD) systems
