What it is

The Pfeiffer / Adixen ADS 501 is a dry vacuum pump. The model is also known as the Alcatel Adixen ADS 501 and as the Alcatel ADS-501.[2][1]

The ADS 501 has an ISO100 inlet and a KF40 exhaust. At 60 Hz operation, the pump delivers a pumping speed of 300 CFM. At 60 Hz operation, the pump reaches an ultimate pressure of 6 x 10-4 Torr. The ADS 501 weighs 844 lbs.[1]

Applications

The ADS 501 is used in semiconductor processes that include stripping, etching, PECVD, LPCVD, MOCVD, and epitaxy. The pump also serves scientific research applications. The ADS 501 is suited to clean and corrosive processes.[1]
