What to Check Before Buying a Used SMIF Pod (200mm) in 2026

Crack inspection: Use a 10x magnifier; reject if >2 hairline fractures (>0.1mm deep) on interior walls.
Seal integrity: Perform pressure decay test (500 Pa for 5 mins); >1.2% pressure loss indicates failed O-ring.
Hinge wear: Measure door hinge play with dial gauge; >0.5mm lateral movement disqualifies.
Contamination history: Request particle count log; >1,000 particles/ft³ (0.5µm) suggests improper cleaning.
Cycle count: Pods with >7,000 cycles (avg. 2020–2022 usage) require full refurbishment. Use a digital counter or check wear on load-lock seals.
