Edge 300 R 40 A E 11 RevE

The MKS Edge 300 R 40 A E 11 RevE belongs to the lab and support equipment category. Machines in this class are used around process tools, test setups, and engineering stations to supply a needed support function such as gas handling, pressure-related service, metrology support, environmental conditioning, or general subsystem control, depending on the exact device type within the broader category.

Such systems are not usually the core patterning, deposition, etch, implant, or inspection tool in a manufacturing line. Instead, they help create stable operating conditions, provide measurement or regulation capability, or enable safe and repeatable operation of adjacent equipment and experiments.

Machines of this class generally operate by monitoring or influencing a supporting physical variable needed by another process or test activity. Depending on the subclass, that can include sensing a condition, regulating flow or pressure, conditioning an input stream, isolating a subsystem, or providing a controlled interface between a utility source and a process chamber or laboratory apparatus.

Such systems typically combine a sensor, actuator, control element, and user or equipment interface. In routine use, the equipment receives an input condition or command, compares actual state to the intended state, and then adjusts a valve, pump-related path, electrical signal, or other control element so the downstream process sees a stable and repeatable support condition.
