What it is

The Semitool SST C 421 280 is a batch wafer processing system manufactured by Semitool. The system is available in configurations for 6-inch and 8-inch (200 mm) wafers.[1][2][3][4]

How it works

The Semitool SST C 421 280 incorporates a heat exchanger and provides vacuum capability. Utility requirements for the system include compressed dry air (CDA) at 65–70 PSI, deionized water at a minimum of 35 PSI, and process gas supplies for nitrogen and carbon dioxide. The system's electrical power requirement is 208 VAC, three-phase, at 50/60 Hz, with a full load current of 30 A, a largest motor load of 10 A (15 HTR), and a short-circuit interrupting rating of 10,000 A.[1][2]
