Trimethylaluminium Fire Safety
Trimethylaluminium Fire Safety

Trimethylaluminium fire safety in the semiconductor manufacturing has recently come to the forefront of fire safety risk in high-tech processes that use this organoaluminium compound in increasing volumes. Trimethylaluminium is used in various semiconductor processes, usually for the purpose of depositing a layer of Aluminum Oxide as an electrical insulator, in microcircuitry / nanocircuitry device architectures.

Why Global Fire Safety Solutions?

Please consider for a moment, the advantage of choosing a fire safety system that has global compliance. Whether it’s new semiconductor equipment being manufactured by an original equipment maker, or used equipment being retrofitted or recommissioned for a new application, it is a point of rudimentary prudence to design the equipment and all of the sub-assemblies, including the safety systems, to comply with any and all foreseeable installation and operation requirements.

Ansul Sapphire Clean Agent Fire Suppression
Ansul – SAPPHIRE® Clean-Agent Fire Suppression Systems

ANSUL® SAPPHIRE® Clean-Agent Fire Suppression Systems are clean-agent fire suppression systems that are designed for use in protecting against fire hazards in occupied or non-occupied where electronic or other equipment is sensitive, and might be damaged by water sprinkler, mist, or other fire suppression agents. These sophisticated fire safety systems are particularly useful for suppressing fires in hazards where an electrically non-conductive medium is essential or desirable, where clean up of other agents presents a problem, or where the hazard is normally occupied and requires a non-toxic agent. The ANSUL® SAPPHIRE® Clean-Agent Fire Suppression System utilizes 3M Novec™ 1230 Fire Protection Fluid as the suppression agent.

Old Fire Safety Equipment
Cheap Fire Safety Systems Aren’t Cheap!

Why even bother having a fire safety system, if it’s not going to work? Why buy one if it is going to become defective in a few months’ time? At KFPI, we realize how bothersome fire safety systems can be. We understand how challenging it is to maintain a semiconductor process line. Having to worry about a fire safety system is an added responsibility that few people desire to shoulder. We get it! We really do. But please don’t underestimate the importance of having one, and having one that works.

When is Fire Safety Equipment Obsolete?

Some things get better with age. Fire safety equipment is not one of these things. Obsolete fire safety equipment is no cause for nostalgia. Blindly believing that one’s rusty fire safety system will be there when you need it, is not a recommended EHS protocol. Check your fire safety systems, and check them frequently. A non-functioning fire safety system is sometimes worse than none at all.

Don't let the gremlins get you down
Don’t Let the Gremlins Get you Down!

Fire is one of the gremlins of semiconductor process equipment. Great thought and energy have been dedicated to the task of designing process tools that have the lowest probability for fire hazard. But, all of the elements for equipment fire are still rooted in the reality incompatibles like heat, electricity, and flammable chemistries in ample quantities.
