IS-8F is an On-Board IS 8F cryopump identifier from the CTI-Cryogenics / Brooks Automation cryogenic vacuum product line, now supported through Edwards. The exact installed part number and array or valve configuration can vary by unit, but Brooks documentation identifies the On-Board IS 8F flat cryopump as a high-vacuum capture pump with integrated roughing/purge hardware, temperature sensing, heaters, RS-232 communication, and On-Board IS controller/network operation
Configurations vary. Verify the exact unit before choosing a replacement.

Brand lineage
CTI-Cryogenics / Helix / Brooks Automation product line with current Edwards vacuum support context
Documented reference configuration
Brooks On-Board IS 8F cryopump table references part number 8185038 with chevron array
Configuration
Configured-unit rule
Installed part number, chevron or sputter/inlet configuration, multi-function valve options, controller/module presence, AMAT/OEM part number, and service state vary by physical unit
Applications
Application domain
High-vacuum and semiconductor process-chamber cryogenic pumping
Operating principle
Pump type
Capture cryopump using cryogenic condensation and adsorption on first-stage and second-stage arrays
Operating pressure context
Brooks manual describes On-Board IS cryopumps as pumping gases in the 10^-3 to 10^-9 torr range
Performance
Water pumping speed
4,000 liters/sec for the documented On-Board IS 8F chevron-array configuration
Nitrogen pumping speed
1,500 liters/sec for the documented On-Board IS 8F chevron-array configuration
Hydrogen pumping speed
2,200 liters/sec for the documented On-Board IS 8F chevron-array configuration
Argon pumping speed
1,200 liters/sec for the documented On-Board IS 8F chevron-array configuration
Argon throughput at 20K
250 to 700 sccm, depending on system configuration
Capacity
Argon capacity
1000 standard liters at 5 x 10^-6 torr; 750 standard liters at 5 x 10^-7 torr with recovery in 30 seconds
Hydrogen capacity
12 standard liters at 5 x 10^-6 torr
Nitrogen capacity
550 standard liters with recovery to 5 x 10^-7 torr in 30 seconds

Regeneration
Full regeneration
Cold-to-cold full regeneration is documented at 90 minutes or less for one pump/one compressor, and 120 minutes or less for five pumps/one compressor, with one minute extended purge
Fast regeneration
Fast regeneration is documented at 35 minutes or less for one pump/one compressor, and 60 minutes or less for five pumps/one compressor
Microprocessor-based On-Board IS control system for monitoring and control of vacuum-system functions
Remote and host communication
Remote control through RS-232 protocol; multiple cryopumps can be networked through BITBUS to an IS Controller for coordinated operation and regeneration
Network address context
On-Board IS module address selector establishes network address 0-9, with channel B used for pump addresses 10-19
Mechanical
Weight
67 lb for the documented On-Board IS 8F chevron-array configuration
Installation
Mounting orientation
Brooks installation manual states the On-Board IS cryopump may be installed on the vacuum-system high-vacuum valve flange in any orientation without affecting performance
System components
Typical system includes the cryopump, On-Board IS compressor, helium supply/return lines, IS Controller, host RS-232 connection, and intercomponent network
Thermal stages
First-stage array
First-stage array normally operates at 65K to 120K and primarily pumps water vapor and hydrocarbons
Second-stage array
Second-stage array operates at 10K to 20K for gases including nitrogen, oxygen, argon, carbon dioxide, and carbon monoxide; activated charcoal cryoadsorbs hydrogen, helium, and neon
Compressor compatibility
IS-1000 compressor context
Edwards states the IS-1000 compressor supports up to six On-Board IS-8F cryopumps in the same footprint as a 9600 compressor
