Embodiments of the present disclosure generally provide a disc-valve design with a self-cleaning feature. The self-cleaning feature may be integrated into the valve, for example, by removing a “cut-out” portion between sealing surfaces of ports. These cut-out portions may create vortices that might clean debris from the sealing surfaces. The cut-outs may also provide a place for debris to collect-keeping it away from the sealing surfaces. In addition, or as an alternative to cut-outs, some other type of mechanism, such as sealing members designed to disturb flow to sweep away debris near a sealing surface or helical grooves (rifling) formed in the ports, may also be used to promote self-cleaning.

A tank, such as a fermentation tank, includes a scraper blade assembly slideably coupled to a bottom surface of the tank. The scraper blade assembly includes a blade arranged to displace solids deposited on the bottom surface of the tank out through an aperture arranged flush with the bottom surface of the tank.

A high pressure fluid system including enhanced safety, maintenance and servicing features. The system can include a CAM assembly module, having a valve seat assembly, seal cartridge assembly and inlet manifold, that is easily installed in and removed from a frame and/discharge manifold as a single unit. A discharge manifold can isolate different pressure rated passageways of the system, and multiple rupture discs associated with the same. A discharge manifold end plate can be included to provide ease of repair of discharge outlets and to establish a plumbing system for the rupture discs. A quick coupler can facilitate connection between a plunger of the seal cartridge assembly and a cross head stub connected to a power frame. A lubrication valve assembly can provide and meter lubrication from a high pressure inlet source to a plunger and packing of the seal cartridge assembly.

A cleaning fixture assembly for protecting an electrostatic chuck suitable for supporting semiconductor substrates during a cleaning process contains a plate configured to align with and engage a backside of the electrostatic chuck, the plate having an annular seal portion surrounding a pocket. The cleaning fixture assembly also contains a first O-ring engaging the annular seal portion of the plate, a plurality of through-holes in the pocket of the plate, and a plurality of O-rings surrounding the plurality of through-holes in the pocket of the plate. The plurality of through-holes are configured to be aligned with and in fluid communication with lift pin holes and helium holes in the backside of the electrostatic chuck, and the plurality of O-rings are positioned to allow cleaning media to engage the lift pin holes and helium holes in the electrostatic chuck during a cleaning process while sealing the cleaning media from reaching the backside of the electrostatic chuck.
