Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a safety detection system for special gas analysis, in particular to an integrated special gas cylinder detection cabinet. BACKGROUND

[0002] Special gases have played an important role in semiconductor processes, such as dry etching, oxidation, ion implantation, thin film deposition, etc. A considerable amount of special gases must be used. However, the special gases are corrosive, flammable, or even toxic, and must be used with caution. These special gases are almost always supplied in steel cylinders.

[0003] During use, general visual inspection cannot determine the purity of the special gas in the gas cylinder. The gas cylinder may contain impurities, insufficient purity, or incomplete cleaning, which may mix with one or more other special gases. If not tested, direct use may cause problems due to the purity of the special gas, resulting in major problems in the entire semiconductor process (causing significant losses). Therefore, a purity detection system for special gas cylinders has been developed.

[0004] In a semiconductor manufacturing plant, a large amount of different special gases are required, and some of these special gases are corrosive or toxic, which are highly hazardous to the human body. Therefore, in the purity detection system for special gas cylinders, it is necessary to monitor whether the special gas leaks during the detection process to prevent harm to the human body and cause industrial safety incidents.

[0005] The purity detection system of special gas cylinder is composed of several parts according to known technology: gas pipeline, including two parts, one is special gas detection and purging pipeline, and the other is waste gas discharge pipeline; purging gas cylinder cabinet, loaded with purging gas cylinder, generally nitrogen; special gas cylinder cabinet, which is sealed and has an exhaust port connected to the outside (negative pressure generated by the external exhaust system to make the special gas cylinder cabinet gas fixedly exhaust to the exhaust port), the exhaust port has a special gas detector, which can detect the leakage of the special gas cylinder cabinet; pipeline purging switch valve disc, which first separates the gas in the pipeline to the waste gas treatment system, and then controls the purging gas cylinder to open, and the residual special gas in the special gas detection and purging pipeline is cleaned by nitrogen; gas detector switch valve disc, which is used to control the special gas cylinder to open, and then the special gas is transported to the gas detection analyzer through the special gas detection pipeline; gas detection analyzer, which is usually used to analyze the content of impurities / moisture / purity of special gas, and the gas detector switch valve disc can open and close the switch valve in the process of pipeline purging (pre-purging, post-purging), special gas detection, waste gas discharge, post-purging after detection, etc.; purging gas cylinder cabinet, special gas cylinder cabinet, pipeline purging pipeline control valve disc, gas detector switch valve disc and gas detection analyzer are connected in series by gas pipeline, and the opening and closing of the switch valve of pipeline purging switch valve disc and gas detector switch valve disc controls the process of pipeline purging (pre-purging, post-purging), special gas detection, waste gas discharge, post-purging after detection, etc. The above control mode is the content of known technology, which will not be described here.

[0006] The above known special gas cylinder purity detection system integrates the purging gas cylinder cabinet and the special gas cylinder cabinet, which are provided by the same gas supplier, and the pipeline purging switch valve disc and the gas detector switch valve disc are provided by another switch valve manufacturer. As mentioned above, the special gas cylinder cabinet that may leak has a special gas detector on the exhaust port that can detect the leakage, and the leakage can be discharged to the external waste gas treatment system. In other words, the special gas cylinder cabinet itself has a hazard control means. The pipeline purging switch valve disc and the gas detector switch valve disc have many gas switch valves, which may leak due to poor quality, aging, etc. At present, when the pipeline purging switch valve disc and the gas detector switch valve disc leak, a vacuum degree measuring instrument is used to measure whether there is a leakage. That is, a pump is used to make the gas pipeline approach a vacuum state; when the vacuum degree measuring instrument detects an abnormal result, it means that there is a switch valve leakage. If leakage is found, the switch valves in the pipeline purging switch valve disc and the gas detector switch valve disc can be checked one by one by manual method.

[0007] The above manner cannot rule out the situation that the switch valve in the pipeline purging switch valve disc and the gas detector switch valve disc suddenly leaks during the special gas detection process. In other words, the known technology still has the possibility of causing a hazardous event during the special gas detection process.

[0008] Therefore, how to prevent the leakage of special gas caused by the pipeline purging switch valve disc and the gas detector switch valve disc during the special gas detection process in the purity detection system of the special gas cylinder becomes an important technical development focus in the technical field. Practical new type content

[0009] In order to solve the problems and defects of the known technology, the integrated special gas cylinder detection cabinet integrates the pipeline purging switch valve disc and the gas detector switch valve disc into the integrated special gas cylinder detection cabinet, uses the special gas detector in the exhaust hole in the special gas cylinder detection cabinet as a tool for detecting whether the switch valve in the pipeline purging switch valve disc and the gas detector switch valve disc leaks, effectively solves the possible leakage problem in the detection that cannot be solved by the prior art, and achieves the special technical effect of preventing the leakage hazard that may occur during the special gas detection process.
