Publication number: 20060272576Abstract: A piping system structure of semiconductor equipment comprises a vessel, a nozzle and a pneumatic pump. The pneumatic pump drains a fluid material in the vessel and transmits the fluid material to the nozzle to spray on the wafer. The piping system structure further comprises a first sensor, a second sensor and a processor. Wherein, the first sensor and the second sensor are disposed at the pneumatic pump to sense whether a valve in the pneumatic pump is at a first position or at a second position and generate a first sensing signal and a second sensing signal to the processor, respectively. When the difference between the time of receiving the first sensing signal and the time of receiving the second sensing signal exceeds a preset value, the processor determines that the operation of the pump is abnormal. Then, the processor controls the semiconductor equipment to generate a warning message.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 2, 2005Publication date: December 7, 2006Inventors: Chain-Chi Huang, Tsung-Han Peng, Ching-Hui Wang, Sue-Peng Wang
