Mass-Vac, Inc. MV Multi-Trap Vacuum Inlet Trap

A line of high-capacity vacuum pump foreline traps for silicon solar cell processing including CdTe and CIGS that can help prevent premature pump failures has been introduced by Mass-Vac, Inc.

PROTECT PUMPS FROM PARTICULATES AND VOLATILES

The MV Multi-Trap Vacuum Inlet Trap combines several trapping methods and multiple stages to condense, absorb, and neutralize process byproducts that generate particulates, volatiles, organic solvents, and acids. Ideally suited for silicon solar cell processing equipment, the trap’s first stage is a 200 square inch baffle shield surrounded by 3/8 inch I.D. cooling coils for condensing volatile solvents and chemicals on a large cooled surface.

ADAPTABLE AND DURABLE

Featuring user-selectable filter elements to address specific processes, the MV Multi-Trap Vacuum Inlet Trap is capable of up to 2,500 cubic inches of solids accumulation and is offered with a solid stainless steel knock-down stage instead of a water cooled baffle shield. Available filter elements include activated alumina or charcoal, SS- and copper-gauze, Sodasorb and other types of to remove residual solvent vapor acids and particulates.
