FSI Refresh Program™ Assessment
Returned POLARIS® systems are put through a comprehensive FSI evaluation:
- All modules undergo testing equivalent to new system standards.
- All parts in the fluid path are replaced.
- All defective parts identified during testing are replaced.
During this process, FSI will add customer-specified upgrades to enhance the performance and reliability of the system. FSI customers benefit by receiving a fully functional, up-to-date system at a fraction of a new tool price.
We know our customers are satisfied with their refreshed systems, as three out of four customers place POs for additional refreshed POLARIS® systems within 6 months of delivery.
FSI Refresh Program™ Certified Systems
To be certified, a POLARIS® Refresh Program™ system must pass the same required testing as a new POLARIS® system. As the OEM, FSI is able to clearly identify defective parts and will replace them during the testing and certification process.
Over the years, FSI has implemented POLARIS® system product improvements. To improve a pre-refreshed tool reliability and performance, other parts are replaced, which can result in increased tool life and product performance.
FSI Refresh Program™ Certified Warranty
System warranties cover parts for a specified time period. Labor is covered under a separate, pre-purchased on-site service retainer contract.
The FSI Refresh Program™ encompasses a variety of options:
- Utilization of current layouts to produce a system suited for a specific need. With over 150 layouts to choose from, FSI will find one that meets every customer’s needs.
- Upgrade/update or modify an existing system to match other tools in a customer’s fab.
- Move systems from one location to another location within a fab.
- Relocate systems from one fab to another fab.
- Remove a system, refresh it, and reinstall it in any fab location.
