Standard Wet Bench, shown with optional Vertical Laminar Flow Hood
  • Economical turnkey solutions for a wide range of cleaning and processing requirements
  • Versatile deck configurations accommodate up to 7 sinks, rinsers, and other processing modules (deeper decks available for up to 14 modules)
  • Bi-directional exhaust system safely removes hazardous fumes
  • Fits beneath Terra's Vertical Laminar Flow station to allow HEPA-filtered processing and exhaust ventilation
  • Optional control modules isolate bath controls from the processing area
  • Custom engineered to meet specific application requirements!
These modular benches accommodate a complete line of baths, rinsers, cleaners, and other processing modules to suit your application.

All-polypropylene models are compatible with most acids and other process chemistries. 304 Stainless steel models are suitable for solvent cleaning. Both standard systems include a raised lip to contain spills and a sub-deck plenum with a 2"-diameter drain valve for safe collection of overflow chemicals. An optional plenum flush feature lets you wash this sink with water as it drains.

Versatile Configurations
Select from among three configurations (see illustrations below). The standard bench is designed for operation with Terra's Vertical Laminar Flow Station and features controls mounted at the rear of the processing area. The Vertical Laminar Flow Station provides a continuous flow of filtered air to the work area. It incorporates HEPA filters and operates at only 50dBA.

These benches accommodate a complete line of baths, rinsers, cleaners, and other processing modules to suit your application. All polypropylene models are compatible with most acids and other process chemistries. 304 Stainless steel models are suitable for solvent cleaning applications. Select among these standard configurations:


 
Standard Wet Bench Standard Wet Bench
For use with Vertical Laminar Flow Hood

This economical design allows placement beneath a laminar flow hood, which provides a downward flow of HEPA-filtered air to prevent particulate contamination in the work area. A 10"-diameter flange is provided on the rear of the station for connection to your in-house ventilation system. A 2.5" raised lip surrounds the work area to prevent floor spills, and perforations along the front lip safely drain spills into the full-length plenum sink located under the work surface. An optional plenum flush quickly empties the plenum through a drain valve.

Convenient front-panel valves control operation of nitrogen or auxiliary gas equipment, DI water, exhaust venting, and power. A storage area below the deck holds collection tanks or reserve chemicals.

In this configuration, process bath controls are mounted at the rear of the station, immediately above air-flow control baffles.

—with Overhead Control Case

As an alternative to a side control module, process bath controls are mounted inside an overhead control case. This configuration eliminates the need for operators to reach over baths in order to access controls. For additional safety, an optional vapor containment hood is installed over the work deck.

 

These modular, economical stations are configured to meet your processing requirements for bath layout, particle-free laminar flow, exhaust fume removal—even robotic transfer.

Standard Wet Bench —with Side Control Module
For use with Vertical Laminar Flow Hood
In many applications, safety dictates that process bath controls be isolated from the process baths. A side control module allows operators convenient access to all system controls without the need to reach over potentially hazardous process chemicals. The housing includes all electronics, and allows convenient service access from the right side of the unit.

Adjustable baffles let you balance the bi-directional air flow at the work surface.

Fire-retardant polypropylene available!
       
Adjustable baffles on the wet processing station let you balance this flow of air between the front and the rear of the processing deck, as your application requires. Opening them completely ventilates fumes away from the operator; closing them increases the force of the filtered-air curtain at the front of the station.

Whatever your application, Terra engineers will work with yours to develop a deck configuration that's right for your process. Baths, rinsers, and other process modules can be arranged in a single or double row.

Standard systems include a reinforced bench of the specified size and material, a storage cabinet, and a 10"-diameter exhaust flange. Polypropylene leveling feet are included; specify optional 4"-diameter retractable casters for easier positioning. Convenient front-panel valves control operation of nitrogen or auxiliary gas equipment, DI water, exhaust venting, and power (order separately).
