ENVIRONMENTAL, SAFETY, AND HEALTH GUIDELINES FOR
SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING EQUIPMENT
MINIENVIRONMENTS
1 Purpose
1.1 These guidelines are intended as a minimum set of
performance-based environmental, health, and safety
considerations for minienvironments used in
semiconductor manufacturing.
1.2 These guidelines are intended to be a supplement
to SEMI S2 (see Section 3.1).
2 Scope
2.1 These guidelines apply to minienvironments used
in the manufacturing, metrology, assembly, and testing
of semiconductor products.
2.2 Equipment enclosed by, or used in conjunction
with, the minienvironments is addressed separately by
SEMI S2 (see Section 3.1). Examples are process tools
and exhaust emissions abatement devices.
2.3 For “integrated minienvironments,” only the
minienvironment enclosure portion is addressed by
these guidelines.

4 Terminology
4.1 closed loop air supply — A system in which air is
recirculated from the minienvironment and returned to
the minienvironment with minimal make-up air.
4.2 emergency off (EMO) — Control circuit which
when activated, places the equipment into a safe shut
down condition.
4.3 integrated minienvironment — The
minienvironment that is an integral part of the tool.
4.4 minienvironment — A localized environment
created by an enclosure to isolate the product from
contamination and people.
4.5 minienvironment end user — The facility which
uses a minienvironment for semiconductor fabrication.
4.6 minienvironment supplier — The party that builds,
sells, or otherwise provides minienvironment
enclosures.
4.7 tool supplier — The party that builds, sells, or
otherwise provides the tools that are used together with
the minienvironments.
5 General Requirements
5.1 Safety and Health Design Requirements —
Minienvironment manufacturers should consider site-
specific design requirements but must not compromise
compliance with applicable regulatory requirements.
The requirements covered in these guidelines are not
all-inclusive. The minienvironment supplier should
employ any additional applicable regulatory and
industry standards that govern associated components.
It is the minienvironment supplier’s responsibility to
work with the user and tool supplier to understand the
local codes and variances.

5.2 Environmental Design Requirements
5.2.1 In order to assess the environmental impact of
minienvironments, the minienvironment supplier
should provide a listing of materials of construction
showing the compatibility with chemical and process
materials typically used in the given minienvironment.
In the case of “non-typical” chemical and process
chemicals, the minienvironment supplier and
minienvironment end-user will evaluate the particular
materials involved to ensure compatibility.
“Nonprocess” chemical wastes (i.e., wastes not in
contact with the product such as oil filters, pump oils,
etc.) that are generated by routine preventative
maintenance should be included.
5.3 Materials of construction should be in
conformance with SEMI S2, Section 19.
6 Enclosure Interlocks
6.1 Not all enclosure panels, doors, and hatches
require interlocks. There may be cases where the
customer requires ports for manual access for product
load/unload or tool adjustment without process tool
interrupt. The need for interlocks should be assessed. If
the overall level of safety is not compromised,
interlocks need not be provided.
6.2 Interlocks are required when the minienvironment
replaces an interlocked door or panel on the process
tool or where the minienvironment provides the
primary barrier to operator exposure to chemical,
electrical, mechanical, thermal, radiation or other
recognized hazards.
7 Chemical and Physical Ha zards
7.1 The addition of the minienvironment and its
associated components should not compromise
equipment safety and health considerations required for
conformance with SEMI S2.
7.2 Shut-off Valves — Manual shut-off valves for
hazardous materials should be clearly visible, labeled,
and easily accessible. Access to these valves should not
be restricted by any part of the minienvironment.
8 Noise
The addition of a minienvironment system should not
cause the noise level to exceed conformance with SEMI
S2, Section 9 (see Section 3.1).
9 Ventilation & Exhaust
9.1 Recirculating air ducts, connectors, and ventilation
components within the minienvironment, should be
constructed of noncombustible material of Class 0 or
Class 1 materials as tested in accordance with UL 181,
Standard for Safety Factory-Made Air Ducts and Air
Connectors.
9.2 Recirculating air duct materials should be
compatible with chemical processes used in the given
minienvironment; the minienvironment supplier should
provide a listing of materials of construction showing
the compatibility with chemical and process materials
typically used in the given minienvironment. In the case
of “non-typical” chemical and process materials, the
minienvironment supplier and minienvironment end-
user will evaluate the particular materials involved to
ensure compatibility.
9.3 Exhaust should not be altered in any fashion to
accommodate a process where flammable liquids are
used or flammable vapors present. Dampers, where
required for balancing or control of the exhaust system,
should be of the locking type.
9.4 Primary exhaust and monitoring of the
equipment/process enclosed should be incorporated as
defined in SEMI S2 (see Section 3.1).
9.5 Minienvironments with a closed loop air supply
should control fugitive emissions in accordance with
SEMI S2, to prevent the buildup of gases and vapors
within the enclosure.
9.6 Ventilation of tools and areas i n which hazardous
materials are used, should comply with the ACGIH
reference in Section 3.2.
10 Electrical
The addition of the minienvironment and associated
equipment should be in compliance with SEMI S2 (see
Section 3.1).
11 Emergency Shutdown
Emergency off (EMO) buttons should be relocated, or
additional EMO buttons installed, if the original EMOs
are out of reach or obstructed due to mini-environment
installation.
12 Ergonomics/Human Factors
12.1 Ergonomics/human factors should comply with
SEMI S8 (see Section 3.1).
12.2 Areas of particular concern for minienvironments
include load/unload ports and maintenance accesses.
The design should discourage extended reaching,
lifting, pulling, and manual orientation of product
and/or containers.
