Use Case 1 - Detection of Cooling Water Leaks in Semiconductor Manufacturing Equipment

Semiconductor Manufacturing UV Equipment
Semiconductor Manufacturing Fab
UV Equipment
(Our Semiconductor Fab)
Internal Coolant Lines
(Our Semiconductor Fab)
Company / Organization
ABLIC Inc. (Our semiconductor fab)
Background
The device is equipped with a wired leak sensor, but detection timing is slow, so water leaks need to be detected much earlier.
Reason for Selection
- No wiring required
- Retrofittable design
Results / Benefits
- Now possible to detect leaks before damage becomes significant.
- Early leak detection minimizes equipment downtime.

Use Case 2 - Water Leak Detection in Piping under Cleanroom Floors

Underfloor Leak Detection

(Our Semiconductor Fab)
Underfloor Leak Detection
for Cleanrooms
(Our Semiconductor Fab)
Company / Organization
ABLIC Inc. (Our semiconductor fab)
Background
Leaks in piping installed in areas normally out of sight, such as beneath gratings or under floors within cleanrooms, can lead to delayed detection.
Reason for Selection
- No wiring required
- Retrofittable design
Results / Benefits
- Leaks can now be detected early at any time, even when unattended.
- Early detection enables response before leak damage escalates.
Leak Detection Notification Method
Email notification

Use Case 3 - Drainage Leak Detection behind the Equipment

Factory wastewater pipe

Receiver and Tower Light Location
Receiver and Tower Light
(Our Semiconductor Fab)
Company / Organization
ABLIC Inc. (Our semiconductor fab)
Background
In the unlikely event that drainage leaks from behind the equipment, delayed detection could result in damage occurring both inside and outside the factory.
Reason for Selection
- No wiring required
- Retrofittable design
Results / Benefits
- Detects leaks behind equipment inaccessible to personnel, minimizing damage.
- Adoption of a tower light system enables notification to nearby workers.
Leak Detection Notification Method
Tower light notification
