Title:
VACUUM TREATING DEVICE AND VACUUM TREATING METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/080934
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An exhaust mechanism (24) evacuates the inside of a vacuum transporting chamber (10) at a constant exhaust amount or exhaust rate. An exhaust valve (36) is kept normally open, and purge gas (N2 gas) is supplied from a purge gas supply source (30) into the vacuum transporting chamber (10) via an MFC (34) and an on/off valve (36). A main control unit (38) controls a pressure in the vacuum transporting chamber (10) to within a specified range through a flow rate value set to the MFC (34), monitors, at the same time, a pressure in the vacuum transporting chamber (10) via a vacuum gage (40), and judges abnormality when the pressure exceeds a specified upper limit to take such actions as changing a flow rate value set to the MFC (34), giving an alarm and stopping a device operation.
