Horizontal Furnace - Products & Upgrades

Upgrade your Atmoscan® with a new Trolley

InVac Systems & innovative Silicon Systems offers a replacement Trolley with an enhanced scissor action giving a smooth elevated movement with just a 1/4 turn of the T-handle.  The Trolley has an adjustable base to set the loading height of the entire platform for alignment with an Atmoscan® horizontal furnace.

If space is a consideration, we offer a unique swivel turn-table with pull handle.  We have equipped our turn-table with a load carrying bearing to give even movement with no friction or particles.

The adjustable boat supports are available in most Semiconductor grade plastics such as Vespel, Peek, or Ultem.

Multi-Channel H20 Flow Monitor

 

InVac Systems & innovative Silicon Systems offers a compact, cost effective unit designed to closely monitor and control multiple cooling water flows to critical equipment components, such as LPCVD vacuum flanges on horizontal furnaces.  The Multi-Channel Flow Monitor (MFM) is available in configurations for 2-6 cooling water loops, each incorporating a metering valve and a flow rate sensor with digital readout, visual alarm, and both analog and digital outputs.

Each leg of the MFM can be configured for one of the three different standard flow rate ranges:

  •         0.3 - 3.2 gph  (20 - 200 ml/min)
  •         1.0 - 16  gph  (60 - 1000 ml/min)
  •         3.2 - 32  gph  (200 - 2000 ml/min)

Each leg can be configured with either 1/4" or 3/8" compression fittings for easy connection.

FlowGuard - Water Flow Monitor

 

InVac Systems & innovative Silicon Systems  introduces a new line of low-cost cooling water flow monitors with the all the features of the more expensive models. The FlowGuard is capable of measuring extremely low flow rates from 0.3 GPH to 32 GPH and provides a two digit LED put readout of flow, a user-settable alarm, a 0-5V analog output signal and a digital alarm output signal.

The flow sensor is small and uses a Pelton-type turbine wheel to determine the flow rate of the water. The rotation rate of the turbine wheel is linear over a large dynamic range. Infra-red light is alternatively reflected and absorbed from spokes on the small turbine wheel as it rotates in response to flow. A photo-diode detects the pulses of reflected light and the electronics converts these pulses into a dc voltage that is proportional to the flow. The signal is very stable, repeatable and has no zero drift.

The electronics module provides power to the flow sensor and receives its output signal. It converts the signal, displays it in GPH on a 2 digit LED and provides a 0-5 VDC linear output signal for remote monitoring or data logging. The module also features a user-settable alarm level. If the monitored flow falls below that level, a visual alarm comes on (audible alarm optional) and a digital output (contact closure) is provided.

All the components are mounted in a tough PVC enclosure.

Each leg of the MFM can be configured for one of the three different standard flow rate ranges:

  •         0.3 - 3.2 gph  (20 - 200 ml/min)
  •         1.0 - 16  gph  (60 - 1000 ml/min)
  •         3.2 - 32  gph  (200 - 2000 ml/min)

Each leg can be configured with either 1/4" or 3/8" compression fittings for easy connection.

TIPS:  Do you know the State of your Furnace?

  Try our Light Status Panel

InVac Systems & VAutomation offers a unique tool for viewing the status or your horizontal furnace or other tools.  Our panel includes five large color indicator lights (1.6") with four levels for a complete four stack.  The five color-coded indicators are: Abort, Alarm, In-Process, Idle and Cool-Down.  The red and yellow indicator lights for Abort and Alarm flash for warning.

The panel is easy to install and connects directly to the furnace (I/O) Relay module.  You can connect directly at the tool, or use as a remote display panel.

The individual Light Status Panels can be connected via RS485 to a Remote Status Panel that would show the status of an entire facility.  You can connect up to 127 different pieces of equipment.

The panel can be customized for single/multiple tool applications at your request.
