The units are suitable for many applications including thermal testing of sensitive components such as semiconductoer devices, wire products, and delicate transducers. They can also be used as a constant temperature environment for chemical reactions. Due to their exceptional temperature uniformity and fast temperature immersions, processing time is between two to three minutes per item for immersion in the bath, followed by quenching in cold fluid. Because the fluidized bed is a fine dry powder, it does not have surface tension effects of liquid baths, and does not wet any objects immersed in it. The basic electrical insulating property of the aluminum oxide used in the baths is not affected by fluidization, making it possible to conduct electrical measurements on immersed objects such as assembled printed circuit boards.
