Lighthouse 2014ip In-Process Particle Counter

"...Lighthouse 2014ip In-Process Wafer Pod Particle Counter can monitor the particles that your product sees in real time..."
0.2 -2.0 micron, 0.1 CFM (2.83 LPM)

Now it is possible to truly monitor the particles that your product sees. Lighthouse Introduces the In-Process Particle Counter 2014ip to help you reach into your process and take control of contamination where it counts.

The 2014ip can be placed in a standard FOUP or SMIF wafer carrier and sent through your process to monitor particles, temperature, and relative humidity in each tool, as well as on your transport system. A 9 hour battery life and data buffer of 3000 records allows for complete monitoring of multiple process steps. Alarms can be seen in real time via an LED alarm light on the back of the unit. Sample times and location labels are user configurable.

A remote start /stop switch allows the user to control the instrument without having to open the wafer carrier. Once the sampling is complete, data is easily download to any PC via LMS Exchange data transport software that is included with the 2014ip In-Process Particle Counter.
