NOTE:

 If the Brush Station

 

is set up to process chemical,

 

then chemical will be 

dispensed to the brush, even if the DRIP CHEM button (operational during the 

coinciding

 

EVENT

) is toggled to the 

OFF

 

position.

Change DRIP WAFER COUNT

6 Touch

 

DRIP WAFER COUNT for Brush Station #1 Cleaning to 

display the

 NUMBER PAD 

and set the number of wafers between 

brush cleaning cycles. This option is only used when DI water, 
(not chemical) is used to process each wafer. Periodically (based 
on wafer count) NH

4

OH is introduced to clean the brushes.

7 Enter the desired count on the 

NUMBER PAD

 (not shown), and 

touch ENTER.

Use the DRIP WAFER COUNT button to set the number of wafers 
that can pass through the Brush Station without interruption. When 
the number is reached, processing is halted, no incoming wafers are 
allowed into the Brush Station(s), and the brushes are cleaned.

If Brush Station #2 is processing with NH

4

OH, then the process is 

identical to Brush Station #1 processing with NH

4

OH.

8 Touch

 

DRIP WAFER COUNT for Brush Station #2 Cleaning to 

display the

 NUMBER PAD 

to set the number of wafers between 

brush cleaning cycles.

9 Enter the desired count on the 

NUMBER PAD

 (not shown), and 

touch ENTER.
