NCC-3100 series Water-cooled   Type B, Circulating water: Tap water, Circulating pump 0.21MPa
Temperature control range: 10 to 80℃   Type C, Circulating water: Tap water・Purified Water, Circulating pump 0.1MPa
Temperature control accuracy:  ±0.1 to 0.2℃   Type D, Circulating water: Tap water・Purified Water, Circulating pump 0.2MPa

 

♦ It is approximately 77% more energy-efficient than the conventional product (Model NCC-1120), contributing to reductions in energy consumption and CO2 emissions.

♦ With highly accurate temperature control using a heater and refrigerator, it circulates liquid with temperatures controlled from -10 to 80°C. The NCC-3100 series uses a water-cooled refrigerator, making it possible to use it in clean rooms and places with high ambient temperatures.

♦ It can be used for temperature control in various applications such as light sources for electron microscopes and spectrophotometers, reaction chambers, exposure systems, and lapping machines (semiconductor manufacturing equipment).

Types C and D can circulate purified water (electrical conductivity of 0.1mS/m (1μS/cm) or higher). They are suitable for temperature control in cleanrooms and semiconductor manufacturing equipment.

Types B and D are high-pressure pump types capable of delivering a discharge pressure equivalent to tap water pressure (0.2MPa). If higher discharge pressure is required, we can manufacture a custom type capable of delivering up to 0.4MPa. 

♦ Considering its use in industrial fields, it is equipped with an independent variable overheat protector, an emergency stop button, and an alarm output terminal.

 

• Characteristics

• Easy-to-read display and user-friendly control panel

 

• Emergency stop, alarm output

♦In the event of liquid leakage during piping or abnormalities at the circulation destination, the system can be shut down immediately at the press of a button.

♦In the event of a chiller malfunction, an alarm is transmitted to the connected equipment via contact output.

 

 

 

 

• Achieves a compact design for space-saving installation

♦ Compared to the previous model (NCC-2120A), the unit volume has been reduced by approximately 61%.
♦ Its compact design allows for installation in space-constrained facilities and laboratories.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Suitable for semiconductor manufacturing lines

• Compatible with purified water circulation (Type C・D)

In applications requiring precise temperature control, such as various semiconductor manufacturing equipment, purified water is often circulated to regulate the temperature of stages that hold substrates or wafers.

Since the wetted parts are made of stainless steel, the unit supports purified water circulation (with electrical conductivity of 0.1mS/m (1µS/cm) or higher), making it suitable for use in semiconductor manufacturing lines, cleanrooms, and systems requiring insulated heat transfer media for static electricity prevention.

 

• Comparison of running costs

CO2 emissions, electricity rate comparison data
NCC-1120A
(conventional model)
CO2 Emissions (kg/year) 9081 Electricity Annual rate  ¥386,487 Max. energy saving effect
Approx. 77%
NCC-3000A 2061 ¥87,732
Reduction (kg/year) 7020 Annual reduction ¥298,755

♦ This table refers to continuous, around-the-clock operation—24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

♦ The amount of CO2 reduction is calculated using the emission coefficient of 0.457 (kg-CO2/kWh) from the “CO2 Emission Coefficients for FY2024” published by the Ministry of the Environment (TEPCO Energy Partner website).

♦ Electricity rates are calculated at 19.45 yen/kWh (TEPCO Energy Partner, contracted electricity for business use of 500kW or more, full year including summer).
