Product Specifications

Reactor Chamber

  • Unimpeded work volume: 12 in. H x 12 in. W x 12 in. D
  • Primary plasma design
  • 5 removable tempered glass shelves
  • Front-loading door
  • RF- and UV-shielded view port
  • Dielectric isolation of electrodes (prevents RF interaction with chamber walls)
  • Front-to-back laminar distributed gas flow

    Control System
  • Microprocessor controller stores ten process recipes in nonvolatile memory, each capable of up to five separate steps
  • Three digital displays for:
    1. PROCESS TIME
    2. PRESSURE
    3. VARIABLE (operator addressable for monitoring any other parameter, i.e. percent of gas flow, percent of forward power, temperature, time, and/or pressure)
  • Key switch selects AUTOMATIC, MANUAL, and PROGRAMMING modes
  • Status LED's indicate SYSTEM DELAY, MANUAL operation, DOOR OPEN, and RF AT SETPOINT
  • Alarm LED's indicate HOLD (interrupted process), flow, temperature, and interlock failures
  • Self-diagnostics displayed automatically on VARIABLE readout Automatic error checking of gas flows, RF power, and reflected power. An "out-of-tolerance" puts the process in HOLD, sounds an alarm, and displays an error code
  • Single mass flow controlled process gas inlet as standard
  • Second or third mass flow controlled gas inlets available as an option Stainless steel isolation valve

    RF Generator/Automatic
    Impedance Matching Network
  • 0-200 watt, 13.56 MHz, solid-state generator
  • 0-500 watt, 13.56 MHz, solid-state generator (optional)
  • Automatic impedance matching network - LCD alphanumeric display for diagnostics - Fast manual or automatic tuning

    Power Distribution Module
  • Distributes power to all components, (including vacuum pump, if purchased from Plasma Science), providing single--point power connection
  • Circuit breaker with LED indicator for main power
  • SYSTEM OFF, EMERGENCY OFF (EMO) button shuts off power to all components, including vacuum pump
  • Keyed EMO prevents unauthorized use by locking out system power

    Standard 27 cfm Vacuum Pump Package
  • Turn key installation (includes flexible plumbing and all fittings)
  • Pump lubricated with inert oil
  • Integral pump starter with control panel
  • External filtration system with pressure gauge and oil mist separator

    System Dimensions:
    72 in. H x 25 in. W x 24 in. D

    Installation Requirements:
  • PS 0150 Plasma System
  • Electrical Power:

    - Dedicated 208 VAC, 10 with neutral, 20 amp required for 27 cfm pump
  • Compressed Air: ¼" Swagelok™ fitting (regulated dry air with an inlet pressure greater than 60 psi to be supplied by the user) 
  • Vacuum Pump
  • Electrical Power: If purchased from Plasma Science, power source is pre-wired to system power distribution module
  • Exhaust: Adequately rated, sealed exhaust line at 30 cfm connected to pump with a 1" tube fitting (11/2" for high capacity pump)
