Granvillle-Phillips® 835 VQMTM Differential
Pump System to include EXT turbomolecular pump from Edwards
Edwards Group Limited (NASDAQ: EVAC), a leading manufacturer of
sophisticated vacuum products and abatement systems and a global
provider of related value-added services, is to supply the EXT75DX
compound turbomolecular pump to Granville-Phillips® to form a part
of their 835 Vacuum Quality Monitor (VQM™) Differential Pump
System. The 835 VQM Differential Pump System (DPS) provides
real-time information that can be used to optimize physical vapour
deposition, ion implant, reactive ion etch and any vacuum dependent
process, particularly in solar and semiconductor manufacturing, and
also for vacuum system monitoring and diagnostics in a wide range
of other vacuum processes in thin film coating, research and
development, high energy physics or other applications where
precise understanding of the vacuum environment is critical.

Granville-Phillips' 835 VQM Differential Pump System including EXT
turbomolecular pump from Edwards
Edwards has been working with Granville-Phillips, part of Brooks
Automation Inc, on their 835 VQM DPS, a diagnostic tool used to
monitor the quality of the vacuum environment in a variety of
vacuum systems. A pressure differential between the vacuum chamber
and the VQM gauge is achieved by limiting the conductance to the
sensor using an orifice in the systems gate valve, and pumping the
sensor with a turbopump. This enables the VQM DPS to monitor the
vacuum quality of a system at pressures between 3 Torr and 5x10-9
Torr.
The key reasons that Granville-Phillips selected Edwards’
EXT75DX compound turbopump were its ultra clean ultra high vacuum
performance, low vibration, high backing pressure tolerance, low
power usage, and the compact size.
Crucial to Granville-Phillips’ decision making process was that
Edwards were able to supply a product that would be rugged and
dependable, in line with their GUTS® (Guaranteed Up Time Support)
program, to ensure reliable performance for their customers using
this system.
David Steele, Market Sector Manager at Edwards, commented, “The
VQM’s innovative design sets it apart from conventional gas
analysis tools. Edwards is committed to supplying the highest
quality vacuum system to Granville-Phillips with the right
performance and the right price.”
