UltraPure™ PF Series™
Point-of-Use UHP Gas Purifiers

 

UltraPure™ PF Series™
FEATURES
 
  • Purifier / Particle Filter combination
  • Improves equipment performance and process economy
  • Sub-ppb removal of impurities from Inert Gases, Nitrogen, Hydrogen, Acid Gases, Oxygen and Hydride Specialty Gases
  • Integral 0.003µm Sintered Stainless Steel Filter Media (9 log reduction)
  • 316L stainless steel (< 10Ra) or 316L VAR (< 5Ra) electropolished wetted surface finish
  • Optional Hastelloy C-22 filter media / housing or Nickel filter media
  • In-Situ regeneration and bakeable to 450o C
APPLICATIONS
  

  • Semiconductor Industry

  • High Purity Welding

  • Gas Analyzer Carts

  • Analytical Industry

  • Research and Development

  • Gas Bottle Filling Plants


The PF Series™ Purifier-Filter reduces gaseous impurities, H2O, O2, CO, N2, CO2, CH4 and (H2)1 to sub-ppb levels from Inert Gases, Hydrogen and Hydrides, Acid Gases and Oxygen, and includes filtration to 0.003 µm in one single unit.

The PF Series™ gas purifiers come in a standard range of 0 - 100 slpm. High flow purifier units (XL-Series) are available for components sets and bulk purifier systems.

High pressure purifiers (max 3000 psig) available upon request, are ideal for gas bottle filling plants and other similar high pressure applications.

 Lifetime is inversely proportional to the total inlet impurity level and to the average flow. Lifetime for H2O/O2 removal only using getter purifiers is approx 4 years at the stated flows / inlet gas. Room temperature getter purifiers will require periodic regeneration to achieve this total lifetime.

UltraPure™XL Series
The XL Series of Gas Purifiers are available in the above dimensions for applications requiring < 1 ppb with high flow performance. For Semiconductor Applications, a sub-micron filter should be installed downstream of the purifier. See NuPure Metal and Ceramic Filter data sheet for a full selection of Gas Particle Filters.

 

UltraPure™ Standard Series
The Standard Series of Gas Purifiers are available in the above dimensions. They are recommended for Industrial, Research and Analytical applications requiring <10 ppb with high flow performance.
 

For regeneration, and for applications requiring removal of all impurities, an external band heater, digital temperature controller with solid state relay and thermal insulation blanket is recommended.
