Torrey Pines Scientific HP90 Waferplate Digital Programmable Hot Plate

The HP90 features a large circular milled-flat aluminum surface with temperature uniformity better than 1% across the heating surface. Designed specifically for working with 12” (304.8mm) diameter or smaller silicon wafers and other samples where temperature accuracy and surface uniformity are a must.

The Torrey Pines Scientific HP90 WaferPlate™ Programmable Bake Plate is a fully programmable digital hot plate designed specifically for baking silicon wafers. In manual operation simply set a target temperature and the unit will go to and hold that exact temperature to within ± 1 °C. In the programmable mode routines can be stored in memory for instant recall and use. The stored routine will be run automatically, and exactly the same, again and again.

Programs can be simple or complex depending upon need. Multiple temperatures, temperature ramp rates if wanted, and dwell times can be stored. These programs can be written and stored in the remote controller provided with the unit, or the programs can be as simple or complex as needed when written by the user on a PC and run by that PC via the RS-232 I/O port on the rear of the heater.

• 13.875 in (354.24 mm) diameter heater surface
