Metal Sealed Thermal & Pressure-based Gas Mass Flow Controllers & Meters

Highest-purity flow path. Ultra-precise, contaminant-free control.
Many of today’s advanced electronic device fabrication processes require extremely accurate and highly repeatable measurement and control of expensive ultra-pure gases and liquid precursors. Brooks Instrument meets those needs with our game-changing metal sealed thermal and pressure-based mass flow controllers and meters. Precise chemistry control is achieved through the combination of ultra-stable, highly accurate measurement sensors, fast precision control valves and powerful digital electronics. Purity of the process chemistry is ensured by our high-integrity (leak tight), ultra-high purity, all-metal wetted flow path, designed to keep outside contaminants like moisture and oxygen from corrupting the process media. 

Key Applications

  • Silicon semiconductor device fabrication processes – Etch, Strip, CVD, ALD, PVD, Epi, Diffusion, Implant and RTP
  • Compound semiconductor device fabrication processes – MOCVD
  • Precision engineered surface coatings
  • Analytical systems
  • Vacuum processes applications
Select the mass flow device that best serves your process requirements.
