Bronkhorst® Starting up Check properties Before installing a Vapor Delivery Module it is important to read the attached labels and check: Model key Pressure rate Temperature (ambient) Power supply Power Rated pressure test inspection Each Vapor Delivery Module is pressure tested to at least 1.5 times the working pressure of the process conditions stipulated by the customer, with a minimum of 8 [bar].
Bronkhorst® Technical specification Physical dimensions For overall dimensions please consult supplied dimensional drawing 7.05.901. This documents is available on: http://www.bronkhorst.com/en/downloads or can be obtained by contacting our local sales & service representatives Environmental conditions • Ambient temperature : 5°C - 40°C.
Bronkhorst® 3.4.3 Capacities Figure 1: Capacity SW-100 Vaporizer Figure 2: Capacity SW-200 Vaporizer 3.4.4 Pressure rating • Gas supply = max. 10 bar(g) • Liquid supply = max. 10 bar(g) • Vapor pressure = atmospheric Piping For optimal performance of the system it is recommend to have at least 10 pipe diameters distance between the angle and the equipment inlets.
Bronkhorst® 3.6.2 Tracing Optionally, the Vapor Delivery Module can be provided with a trace temperature control. In this case, the VDM-Series is provide with a tracing output IEC 60320-2-2 / C13 female connector. This connector is intended for connecting tracing tape, which is not supplied.
Seals Bronkhorst® has gathered a material compatibility chart from a number of sources believed to be reliable. However, it is a general guide only. Operating conditions may substantially change the accuracy of this guide. Therefore there is no liability for damages accruing from the use of this guide. The customer’s application will demand its own specific design or test evaluation for optimum reliability.
Bronkhorst® Purging / filling 4.6.1 Startup without using vacuum 4.6.1.1 To fill the system Procedure: Actions: Purge all lines Close V2, V3 and V7 Open V1, V4, V5 and V6 Give setpoint 100% to MFC Give setpoint 0% to LFC Purge for a long time.
Bronkhorst® 4.6.1.2 To start the process Procedure: Actions: Set the heater at right temperature Give set point to the heater; wait until the temperature is stabilized Start gas flow Give setpoint to MFC Make sure that the carrier gas is always flowing when the liquid flow is on.
Bronkhorst® 4.6.2 Startup with using vacuum 4.6.2.1 To fill the system Procedure: Actions: Evacuate the lines “Vacuum” Start pumps Evacuate all lines Close: V1, V2, V3, V4, and V6 Make sure that “waste” and “process” are vacuum Connect inert gas on carrier gas inle.
Bronkhorst® 4.6.2.3 To stop the process Procedure: Actions: Disconnect process Open V6, close V7 Stop liquid flow Give setpoint = 0 to LFC Optional: Stop gas flow Give setpoint = 0 to MFC Make sure that the carrier gas is always flowing when the liquid flow is on.
Bronkhorst® Operation Power- and warm-up Before switching on the power, be sure that: System is checked for leakage of gases and liquids All connections have been made Flow-set points are zero No liquid has been spilled into the equipment Switch on and then: Allow 30 minutes (from switching on) to warm up (common for thermal flow controllers) Wait until pre-set temperatures are reached.
Bronkhorst® 5.2.3 Select Instrument The Vapor Delivery Modules contains liquid and gas flow controllers. Also a temperature controller for evaporation and optional trace heating is provided. These integrated instruments have unique node addresses. Factory default node addresses are: Node address...
This chapter explains the most important user interface options. For more information please check the E-8000 manual 9.17.076 at: http://www.bronkhorst.com/en/downloads Operating settings Make sure that the tracing and heating temperatures are well above the dew point of the desired vapor flow at the process conditions.
/min Air has to be moistened. Which water flow is needed for a r.h. of 50%. The vapor pressure of water at 80°C is 473.3 mbar according to FLUIDAT®. FLUIDAT® on the Net: Bronkhorst High-Tech's interactive Flow Calculations and routines generating Physical Properties. Visit www.fluidat.com Assumptions: Consider water vapor as an ideal gas, 1 mole of ideal gas at normal conditions = 22.4 l, 1 mole of water is 18 g and 1 hour is 60 min.
