The need to reduce energy is a major subject for sustainability. Manufacturers employ large numbers of aging dry vacuum pumps. Depending on the process, the vacuum system alone can contribute up to 60% of the total electricity demand for a process tool. Upgrading the vacuum pumps can reduce the fab’s energy consumption and save your money.

EBARA has developed a new and more efficient vacuum pump designed by improving motor efficiencies, optimized number of compression stages, enhancing motor control and adding intelligent communications, the energy consumption of the dry pump will be significantly reduced. This results in lower operation costs and improved profitability for our customer.
