Pall Introduces Long-Life Gas Purifiers for High Brightness LED Producers
New Purifiers Address Need for Luminosity and Cost Control
Business Wire
PORT WASHINGTON, N.Y. -- March 18, 2013
Pall Corporation (NYSE:PLL) has introduced Gaskleen® High-Bright purifiers to
remove molecular contaminants from ammonia used in the manufacture of high
brightness light emitting diodes (HB-LEDs). The new purifiers will help ensure
consistent, cost-effective delivery of the pure ammonia needed to make LEDs
with the highest luminosity. Featuring twice the service life of other
commercially available technologies, Gaskleen High-Bright purifiers offer the
enhanced performance and cost control that are critical to the economics of
LED production.
"With this new purifier, Pall has addressed the industry demand for the
brightest LEDs at the lowest operating cost," said Jan-Paul van Maaren, vice
president of strategic marketing, Pall Microelectronics. "The cost of LEDs
needs to drop and the performance has to rise to accelerate the adoption of
LED lamps as replacements for incandescent and CFL bulbs. This new technology
will give our customers both a performance and cost advantage.”
Gaskleen purifier assemblies combine Pall’s proprietary purification materials
and Ultramet-L® stainless steel filter media. They remove moisture and other
oxygenated compounds from process gases to sub ppb levels while providing
3-nanometer or 0.4-micron filtration. Additionally, they do not release
aluminum or other metal ions into the process stream, further increasing
luminosity.
