Abstract
A cleaning apparatus includes at least one cleaning module configured to treat electronic substrates and a conveyor system configured to transport the electronic substrates through the at least one cleaning module. The at least one cleaning module includes a fluid management system having a manifold coupled to a source of fluid. The manifold includes at least one outlet. The at least one cleaning module further includes an automatic valve coupled to the at least one outlet and to a conduit leading to one or more first spray nozzles and a pressure sensor coupled to the automatic valve. The pressure sensor is configured to measure pressure of fluid flowing through the conduit. The automatic valve is configured to adjust the flow of fluid through the conduit based on the pressure measured by the pressure sensor.
