About NEHP's Semiconductor Modularization

Modularization Reduces Construction Time and Cost

P&ID with NEHP modules

P&ID with NEHP modules noted in orange. Simply source is the interconnecting pipe work.

The advantages of modularization include significant financial and time savings. In addition, these savings can materialize into a competitive advantage for your business. With NEHP modules replacing stick-built construction, the following savings are typically realized:

 

 

 

 

  • Time to installation reduced by 17%-47%
  • Cost of installation reduced by 10%-20%
  • Footprint reduced 10%-15%
  • On-site labor reduced up to 44%
  • On-site activity reduced by 50%
  • Complexity of procurement reduced with fewer vendors and fewer purchase orders

 

The Benefits of Modularization Over Stick-Built

NEHP modules replace complicated and costly stick-built gas and water support systems with pre-designed units that fit conveniently into the fab room floor or sub-fab room, depending upon the application. NEHP keeps your project's design and construction process simple with pre-designed modules for specific tool types. Simply select your tool type and find detailed specifications for the available modules. As this P&ID illustrates, the integration of NEHP modules simplifies design, procurement and construction—all that you have left to source is the interconnecting pipe work.

By utilizing pre-designed modules from NEHP, the design, procurement and construction processes are streamlined—saving you time and money.
