The PC-1100A, PC-2200A, PC-3300A and PC-4420A erasing cabinets are compact, portable, heavy-duty units designed for high-volume chip erasure! High UV intensity! Fast erasing times! Large load capacities!

All four models feature high-intensity, short-wave UV (254 nm), ozone-free, low-pressure mercury vapor, modular quartz grid lamp assemblies mounted on specular aluminum reflectors. The cabinets have large loading drawers with erasing capacities ranging from 84 to 336 EPROMs. Units also accommodate PC boards, metric cards and silicon wafers up to 8 inch (203 mm). In addition, the PC-3300A and PC-4420A cabinets accept open-faced stocking tubes. All of these units provide outstanding UV irradiance uniformity to ensure quick and complete erasure of programmed memory from every EPROM, chip or wafer. The PC-1100A, PC-2200A and PC-3300A can each produce erasing times as fast as 5.4 minutes*, while the PC-4420A can complete an erasing cycle in just 4 minutes!**

Innovative Features:

  • Electronic timer — Minimizes operator error and provides automatic shut-off at the end of the erasing cycle. Pre-settable up to 60 minutes.
  • UV-absorbing light indicators — Alert user when the corresponding grid lamps are operating
  • Safety interlock — Will not allow unit to operate unless the loading drawer is fully closed. Protects the user from accidental exposure to hazardous short-wave UV (254 nm) radiation
  • Powerful internal cooling fans — Control cabinet temperature to ensure optimum UV intensity, maintain uniform output and provide efficient erasing conditions. Helps prolong the life of the grid lamps.
  • Removable tray insert with built-in conductive foam pad is provided with the PC-1100A, PC-2200A and PC-3300A units for quick loading and unloading and to protect the devices from electrostatic damage. The tray insert is height adjustable to maintain the optimum UV exposure distance. A choice of 6 in (152 mm) or 8 in (203 mm) tray inserts is available for the PC-4420A cabinet.
