Innovation.
Efficiency.
Reliability.
Sustainability.
Based on high end engineering innovation, the Trebor Ultra-Pure Water Heater Quantum NXT (QNXT) provides the required performance with the environment sustainability.
Leading Edge Heating Technology:
Patented thin-film on quartz electric resistance heating element provides exceptional temperature response (ultra-efficient heat transfer) and drastically improved reliability, without the necessity of O-ring seals.
Multi-loop PID control with zero crossfire SSRs provide exceptional temperature control.
This proprietary thin-film on quartz has no metal exposure and eliminates contamination risk in the event of element failure. No external air or nitrogen purge is required with the Quantum NXT.
Versatile Control Options:
Multiple communication options are available to meet virtually all unique requirements and protocols. These heaters can be customized to communicate with any wet process tool in the semiconductor industry.
Compact & Convenient:
The modular element allows for very compact system design and can be changed out in less than 15 minutes when required. LCD color touch screen display provides easy user input and diagnostic feedback.
True Eco-Innovation:
The Quantum NXT technology provides both energy and water savings without affecting the demanding requirements of the application.
Ultra Clean Design:
High purity flow path of GE 214 semiconductor grade quartz, PTFE, and PFA with no elastomer O-rings and no NPT threads or dead-legs to create particle traps.
Dual Process Available:
Just one QNXT-D can provide heated DI water for two separate tools, lowering the overall integration cost and saving space, energy and water.
Water Stop Option: 
• Utilizing the Quantum NXT’s Stop-Flow-Technology
, allows near instant heated DI water with next to no waste, allowing to cut off IDLE mode water usage.
Recirculation Option:
Another unique option offered by the Quantum NXT heater is a recirculation loop for the process water line. This option is the perfect combination of immediate “to-the-point” temperature controlled UPW dispense whenever needed and significant water and energy savings.

S3 Alliance® Gmbh is a certified Signature Service Provider (SSP) for Trebor Products, which describes the qualification to repair the pumps. We repair all Trebor Diaphragm Pump Models in our workshop in Germany, next to Stuttgart.We have not only the facility (wet bench, compressor) and toolsets to pursue this task but also a variety of rebuild kits available for immediate repair out of our stock.
The process steps are as follows:
- Delivery of a quote for the repair of your Trebor Pump Model (including the rebuild kit that is needed for most repairs)
- Sending the pump after safe flushing and rinsing together with the Trebor Return Data Sheet
- Inspection and test run of the pump by S3 to confirm the failure mechanism
- Disassemble of the pump and evaluation of the defect parts
- Pre-report sent to the customer to confirm the level of repair chosen
- Repair after agreement with the customer
- Test with DI Water and CDA for compliance to the specification
- Final report and shipping to the customer

S3 Alliance® Supplier CEK has recently overhauled a 300 mm Yaskawa robot coming from a semiconductor player in Germany. The equipment engineer stated: “The process went very smoothly and professionally. Compared to the OEM, we were able to save both costs and time without having to accept any loss of quality. Therefore we are planning to use the S3 Alliance® service for our Yaskawa and Kawasaki robots again in the future.”

]]>The post SONOTEC® and S3 Alliance® agree on distribution partnership appeared first on S3 Alliance.
]]>SONOTEC® holds a world leading position in ultrasonic-based technologies for liquid flow monitoring on flexible and rigid tube systems. Non-contact flow meters and bubble detectors can monitor and control liquid flow processes without any risk of leakage or contamination and without causing any downtime of machinery. Therefore, SONOTEC’s contactless measurement technology has proven ideal for sensitive semiconductor processes in which a number of abrasive, adhesive, corrosive, and high-purity liquids are applied.
S3 Alliance is a market driven organization with more than 20 years of experience in the field of distribution, service, and project management bringing manufacturers of highly specialized capital goods and consumables into Semiconductor, Green Energy, Life Sciences and related market segments.
“The cooperation brings together the strengths of two companies that are perfectly complementing each other. This opens up the opportunity to significantly yield market synergies for a successful operation in the European semiconductor industry”, emphasizes Michael Münch his expectations towards the agreement.
“We are very happy to collaborate with a German high-tech sensor company that is already successful in other industries. SONOTEC® products fit perfectly into the S3 Alliance portfolio that has strengths in CMP and wet chemical processing applications. Using accurate contactless technology enables easy and safe integration, with the possibility to control more accurately demanding semiconductor applications, which is required by the market. We will support SONOTEC® with access to an existing customer base in the industry and are looking forward to develop a strong and successful relationship for the future.”, describes Thomas Riedel the framework and cooperation goals.
With its product development specifically targeted to the semiconductor industry, SONOTEC® benefits substantially from decades of experience in designing non-contact ultrasonic flow sensors for highly sensitive applications in biopharma as well as for medical devices with strict safety regulations.
“Thus, certain sensor performance features such as high accuracy real-time instantaneous flow measurement of up to 400 L/min, the implementation of a volume-totalizer, a broad range of standard industrial interfaces, and the expertise in handling a wide range of tubing properties and geometries could be successfully adopted to the needs of semiconductor applications”, adds Anika Baumhauer, Strategy & Sales Manager for the semiconductor industry.

]]>Foamtec’s Foam face masks are not impacted by recently implemented export or import restrictions, so are a more readily obtained mask for semiconductor, pharmaceutical, aerospace and medical device cleanrooms.
Most importantly, the use of Foamtec’s foam face masks does not take supply away from hospitals and medical clinics treating the Corona Virus.
While foam face masks do not have filtration capabilities against viable particulates, the table below demonstrates the low particle counts vs. three-ply non-woven masks. As an added benefit, foam face masks significantly reduce the fogging of safety glasses, primarily when employed as under mask.
