machinery. The Line Vac (shown right) has
special flanges that permit direct mounting to a
machine used in the manufacturing of silicon
wafers for the semiconductor industry.
This flanged Line Vac is used to remove acidic
vapors resulting from surface etching of the
silicon wafer. Ordinarily, EXAIR's Stainless Steel
Air Amplifier would have been used since it
moves much higher volumes of air. In this case,
the Line Vac was the better choice since the
exhaust piping was long with many bends that
would have created high back pressure. The
directed nozzles of the Line Vac overcomes this
downstream resistance.
