Vacuum and Convection Ovens

FLO-10C-12W Thermal Chamber

The SunRay FLO-10C-12W Thermal Chamber is a high
performance ISO Class 4 Cleanliness oven for wafers up to 300mm and temperatures up to 250C ideal for applications such as;
  • Moisture removal
  • Re-flow
  • Single layer thermal processing
With its proprietary multi-zone coordinated heating control technology, the temperature uniformity is better than ± 3.5°C under wide operation temperature with gas consumption programmable from 0 to 50 litre per minutes.
Its superior ISO Class 4 cleanness is suitable for baking processes of semiconductor wafers, MEMS, LED and touch panels.
