Low Flow Pumps

High-purity pumps with low flow rates

White Knight Metering Pumps

Metering Pumps

Metering pumps offer adjustable flow rates for use in single-wafer processing tools or premix vessels to ensure exact chemistry mixtures, and allow for in-situ mixing directly at the head. They accurately dispense high-purity chemicals for replenishing, blending, dosing and spiking applications. They are ideal for photoresist, etch and clean processes.

  • Fully adjustable stroke speed controlled manually or electronically
  • Dispense volume ≤ 50 or ≤ 100 ml, depending on model
  • Highly accurate; ± 0.01% or ± 0.1% repeatability, depending on model
  • No exposed metals prevents corrosion and contamination
  • PTFE fully-swept fluid path for ultra-pure chemicals
  • PEM pump features programmable system logic, and can have 2-6 ports

White Knight PPMC Mini-Pump for High-Purity Chemicals

Mini Pumps

PPMC mini pumps are capable of up to 300 ml/min flow rates and 160 psi discharge pressures. They feature PTFE and PFA fluid paths, and spring-loaded checks enable the pump to mount in any direction. Solenoid valves actuate each suction and dispense.

  • ≤ 300 ml/min flow rates
  • ≤ 11 bar (160 psi) fluid pressure
  • ≤ 7 Bar (100) psi supply air
  • ≤ 100°C (212°F)
  • ≤ 0.5 m (20 in) suction lift
  • Metal-free fluid path

*Suction lift diminishes over time. Recommended installation level less than 4.6 m (15 ft.) above source.
**Optimized parameters can improve repeatability. Minimize suction lift to maximize repeatability. Contact White Knight for details.
Tests conducted with water at ambient temperature. Dispense range measured at full stroke with maximum and minimum supply pressures at 80 psi and 60 psi.
