Abstract: A liquid supply device includes a tank storing a processing liquid, a circulation line, a pump, and a supply line for supplying the processing liquid to a liquid processor. The circulation line includes a main line, and first and second branch lines branching from the main line. The supply line includes first and second supply lines connected to the first and second branch lines, respectively. The first and second branch lines includes first and second heating mechanisms, first and second filters, first and second drain lines for draining the processing liquid, first and second branch circulation lines for returning the processing liquid to the tank, and first and second valves provided to switch a destination of the processing liquid, respectively.

Abstract: A liquid supply system includes: a tank that stores a processing liquid; a circulation line that returns the processing liquid sent from the tank, to the tank; a pump that forms a circulation flow of the processing liquid in the circulation line; a filter provided on a downstream side of the pump in the circulation line; a back pressure valve provided on a downstream side of the filter in the circulation line; and a controller that controls each unit. When stopping an operation of the pump, the controller controls the pump and the back pressure valve such that a differential pressure between an upstream side and a downstream side of the filter becomes equal to or less than a predetermined threshold value, during a period from when a discharge pressure of the pump starts to decrease until the operation of the pump is stopped.

Abstract: An apparatus includes: a tank storing a processing liquid; a circulation line; a branch line; a processing part for supplying the processing liquid to a substrate at the branch line; a discharge part for reducing a storage amount of the processing liquid; a supply part for supplying a new processing liquid to the tank; and a controller including: a first determination part for determining whether the storage amount is less than a lower limit value; a first replenishment controller for replenishing the processing liquid to the tank when the storage amount is less than the lower limit value; a calculation part for calculating a replenishment amount of the processing liquid; and a second replenishment controller for reducing the storage amount and replenishing the processing liquid to the tank when a calculation value of the replenishment amount is less than a set value.
