Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics Showcases New Products at 2016 SEMICON West Show

Solon, OH, July 08, 2016 --(PR.com)-- The Process Systems business unit of Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics introduces its new Furon® 2" HGV/HGVM Valve and Furon® Q-Valve improvements at this year’s SEMICON® West show held in the Moscone Center, San Francisco, CA, from July 12-14, 2016.

At the industry’s premier semiconductor industry show, Saint-Gobain will demonstrate the highest Cv valve in the industry based on its full-injection molded Furon 2" HGV/HGVM Valve, which is specifically designed to withstand harsh chemicals while offering an excellent level of purity and optimum flow performance. The valve is ideal for semiconductor, laboratory and environmental applications where ultrapure chemicals — including water — require precise quality control.

Saint-Gobain will also showcase an improved dual O-ring guiding system for its pneumatically actuated Furon Q-Valves. The system helps customers achieve maximum uptime performance for fluid delivery applications where reliability and performance are critical, such as semiconductor processing, chemical processing and delivery and photovoltaic.

“Saint-Gobain is committed to understanding, reproducing and explaining how components impact a specific system in order to provide customers with a high-performance solution tailored to their application needs,” said Stephane Domy, global marketing manager of High Purity Systems, for the Process Systems business unit. “This includes benchmark testing of our Furon Q- Valve, Inline Valve and Gemu high-flow and standard valves, which we’ll be sharing in our booth at SEMICON West.”
