BATCH CLEANING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR BATCH CLEANING PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARDS

摘要

A batch cleaning apparatus includes a housing including a process chamber, a fluid holding tank supported by the housing, and a fluid delivery manifold assembly removably disposed in the process chamber of the housing and in fluid communication with fluid holding tank. The fluid delivery manifold assembly includes a fluid inlet port selectively coupled to the fluid holding tank, a plurality of distribution manifolds in fluid communication with the fluid inlet port, and a plurality of spray bars in fluid communication with the distribution manifolds. The spray bars are configured to provide support for printed circuit boards during a cleaning operation. Other embodiments of batch cleaning apparatus and methods of batch cleaning are further disclosed.
