The FTPA2000-SC series is a wet process analyzer designed for real-time, non-intrusive monitoring of up to eight chemical baths in semiconductor, solar cell, and flat panel display manufacturing. It uses FT-IR technology to measure bath compositions without contact, preventing contamination through a Teflon-based sample interface that clips onto ½ or ¾ in tubing. The analyzer can be mounted up to 100 m from the baths and communicates via Modbus, Ethernet, or 4 to 20 mA analog outputs. It supports trend analysis, end-of-bath alarms, and closed-loop dosing with guaranteed stability and drift-free performance. Custom calibration models are available, and the system requires minimal operator training.
ABB supplies the semiconductor, solar cell and flat panel display industries with the first in-situ, real time, non-contact analyzer for wet bench monitoring. ABB is not only a global leader in real time measurements for process control but the leading supplier of fiber optic multi-bath FT-NIR instrumentation to the electronics and solar power industries.
With numerous standard calibrations and a scientific staff dedicated to custom applications, the ABB Wet Process Analyzer has been installed in over a thousand baths worldwide. The WPA is the only analyzer with a lifetime warranty on its optical “engine:” this is a robust, stable, low maintenance analyzer providing unsurpassed results. When the WPA shows a property trending up or down, it is a real trend not analyzer drift.
