2.2.4 Supply Gases
The customer is required to supply all gases, filters, check-valves, and regulators. Ensure
that the required gases are available in close proximity to the ChemGuard® CG050
installation site. (see Chapter 3 for further details).
Ensure there are shutoff valves and filters for gas lines feeding the ChemGuard® CG050.
Ensure the correct gases are used for the process chemical and the properties of the gas are
correct for the process chemical (i.e. dry N2). (See Table 2-5).
To reduce the potential of flow fluctuations, the end-user must properly design the facilities
for the ChemGuard® CG050, i.e. incoming gas supplies and chemical delivery line layouts
with adequate line size, vertical rise, horizontal length between the ChemGuard® CG050 and
the process tool(s).
To avoid potential process failures here are some guidelines the end users should consider
when facilitate ChemGuard® CG050 cabinets at central location.
•ChemGuard® CG050 cabinets centrally located and within close proximity to the
process tool (s) to minimize the vertical and horizontal length of the chemical delivery
lines.
•The incoming main gas supply to multiple ChemGuard® CG050 cabinets should be
properly sized to provide adequate pressure and flow before branching out to multiple
ChemGuard® CG050 cabinet connection points.
•After the main gas supply has been branched off to the individual ChemGuard®
CG050 cabinets, Individual gas supply lines are equipped with individual regulators,
check valves and isolation valves which have been properly sized to meet the
pressure and flow requirements of the process tool (s).
A gas filter is required on the houseline supplying the ChemGuard® CG050 push gas.
Failure to install a filter will void regulator and valve warranty if failed component found to
have particles embedded on the seat. See Addendum B for recommended setup.
Minimum filter specifications:
• Filter = 0.003 micron.
• Flow = 50 slpm.
• Material = Electropolished 316L Stainless Steel.
DO NOT deliver process/purge gases from a high pressure gas cylinder source. The supply gases must be
delivered from the house line gas source regulated to no more than 120 psig with flow not greater than
250 slpm.
A pneumatic supply of inert gas without oxygen is recommended for the controller. It is
strongly advised to not use clean dry air for pneumatic supply. The pneumatic supply may be
shared in the controller between the pneumatic solenoids and the enclosure
inerting/pressurizing service (Z-purge). Based on results from DC power harness testing,
clean dry air may promote the corrosion of electrical connectors for interconnecting power
cables. The presence of oxygen enhances the corrosion effect and may result in deterioration
of controller performance.

2.3 Tag and Lockout Routine
When performing certain maintenance procedures described in this manual, electrical power
to the ChemGuard® CG050 must be de-energized, using site lockout/tag out procedures.
Consult your company’s safety procedures for tagging and lockout instructions to be followed
when performing such maintenance.
It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure compliance with local electrical regulations
1. Notify all affected employees that a lockout or tagout system is going to be utilized and
the reason therefore. The authorized employee shall know the type and magnitude of
energy that the machine or equipment utilizes and shall understand the hazards thereof.
2. If the machine or equipment is operating, shut it down by the normal stopping procedure
(depress stop button, open toggle switch, etc.).
3. Operate the switch, valve, or other energy isolating device(s) so that the equipment is
isolated from its energy source(s). Stored energy (such as that in springs, elevated
machine members, rotating flywheels, hydraulic systems, and air, gas, steam or water
pressure, etc.) must be dissipated or restrained by methods such as repositioning,
blocking, bleeding down, etc. (Type(s) of stored energy methods to dissipate or
restrain).
4. Lockout and/or tagout the energy isolating devices with assigned individual lock(s) or
tag(s) (Method(s) selected, i.e., locks, tags, additional safety measures, etc.)
5. After ensuring that no personnel are exposed, and as a check on having disconnected
the energy sources, operate the push button or other normal operating controls to make
certain the equipment will not operate (Type(s) of equipment checked to ensure
disconnections).
CAUTION
Return operating control(s) to neutral or off position after the test.
6.The equipment is now locked or tagged out.
2.4 Spill Cleanup Routine
In dealing with chemical spills/mitigating releases, always use proper personal protective
equipment, including gloves, face and eye protection, respirators, and protective clothing.
Due to various factors in each spill incident, it has been determined unsafe to provide generic
spill instructions for each type of chemical delivered by ChemGuard® CG050 cabinets. For
example, two spills of the same type of chemical could have two different spill procedures.
Therefore, in the event of a spill, we recommend immediately contacting your chemical
provider for specific chemical spill recommendations and environmental regulatory
NOTE: Maintenance personnel shall make use of a step stool or small
ladder to safely access the ChemGuard® GEN III controller. Operating personnel
shall make use of a step stool to access the touch screen monitor as required.
3.1 Introduction
This chapter describes the installation of ChemGuard® CG050 GEN III cabinet.
Because each customer application may vary, these instructions are provided as a
guideline and should not be considered as comprehensive.
Please do not begin installing the ChemGuard® unless trained individuals are
present.
The ChemGuard® CG050 comes pre-calibrated and cabinet-tested. The
ChemGuard® Bulk Scale, dual float spill detector, combustible vapor detector
(option) and UVIR (option) are setup prior to leaving the factory. These items
should not require calibration during installation. Please contact Versum Materials,
Inc. if any of these components do not function properly.
NOTE: When highly flammable chemicals are used and present within
the equipment you must:
• Ensure the all connections made to the cabinet are leak tight.
• Use an inert gas purge to dilute the concentration of highly
flammable vapors in the exhaust header to which the vent
piping is connected.
• Use an inert gas purge to the vacuum pump gas ballast
connection.
3.2 Reference Documents
For Installation and P&ID system drawings, facilities inspection, pre-startup and
commissioning procedure and check-off/sign-off lists refer to;
• SW017054_Installation Drawing
• DOC000191 for the ChemGuard® CG050 GEN III P&ID Drawings
This chapter describes items that should be identified and resolved prior to
installing ChemGuard®.
The end user must have knowledge of process flow requirements, prepare flow
calculations for sufficient flow and have a carefully designed layout plan for the
installation of the ChemGuard® cabinet – preferably at a central location where
the facilities will meet the process tool requirements. Proper facilitation and
installation will reduce and avoid potential failures, tool downtime and rework
costs.
Chemical delivery line to each process tool(s) should be designed and install with
minimum distance in vertical rise (height) and horizontal length between
ChemGuard® cabinet and the process tool (s) to meet process operating pressure
and flow rate required of the process tool (s).
• The maximum range that a standard ChemGuard® can deliver chemical is
dependent on the chemical and the pressure of the push gas. Contact
Versum Materials, Inc. for any specific delivery requirements beyond 250
meters of horizontal run and 10 meters of vertical run. These distances
could be increased contingent on bends and valve count in the system.
• Install ChemGuard® using the earthquake bolt down points. Verify that the
location has the stability and strength to permit the installation of support
bolts.
• Verify AC power is available for ChemGuard®. Power requirements are
described in Chapter 2.
• Verify all required gases are delivered to an area near the final position of
ChemGuard®. Refer to Chapter 2.
NOTE: All chemical delivery line requirements are the customer’s
responsibility.
• Gases required for ChemGuard® cabinet operation are described in
Chapter 2.
• The ChemGuard® CG050 GEN III cabinet uses venturi vacuum as the
vacuum source so no vacuum pump is required. The vapor pressure of the
chemical used in the ChemGuard® CG050 GEN III cabinet is high enough
for the venturi vacuum to completely remove all chemical vapors from the
lines during maintenance operations.
• The ChemGuard® requires an exhaust flow of 30 CFM. In addition to
cabinet exhaust, ChemGuard® contains a reservoir vent function that
permits the removal of pressure from the reservoir container. This vent
should be connected to the appropriate abatement system for the chemical
used.
• Coaxial chemical delivery lines are recommended for all process chemicals.
In the event that a leak or rupture occurs in the main delivery line, the liquid
will be contained and be prevented from entering the environment.
• The liquid from any leak will be contained in the ChemGuard® cabinet and
be detected by the spill detector, and container then relieved to prevent any
further spillage.
3.3.2 Available Configurations
The ChemGuard® CG050 GEN III cabinet is used in an epitaxial process.
Hydrogen gas is “bubbled” thru an onboard container typically containing
Trichlorosilane, (TCS) and vapor is then delivered to a Process Tool. This
application is limited to one ChemGuard® per tool or chamber.
3.4 Installing the ChemGuard® CG050 Cabinet
Verify that the cabinet is in a level location with enough clearance around it so that
its doors can be fully opened and so that it can be serviced easily.
Set the ChemGuard® cabinet over the bolt-down points and attach securely.
Per current United States UBC and SEMI requirements, floor bolts must be at
least Grade 5 (metric Grade 8.8), at a recommended minimum length of 2.5 in.
(6.35 cm).
The ChemGuard® must be grounded in accordance with Article 250 - Grounding,
The National Electrical Code 1993. See Figure 2-1 for the location of the
grounding lug. Versum Materials, Inc. recommends a ground resistance of <1
Ohms.
3.4.1 Electrical Connections
Versum Materials, Inc. recommends that the customer electrically ground
ChemGuard® cabinet and plumbing. OSHA standards require customer to install
lockout-type circuit breaker for AC power. Per SEMI S2-93A requirements, all
electrical work for ChemGuard® GEN III is Type 1 and Type 2.
