Frequently Asked Questions

The OZPEN™ generates and propels an adjustable spray of clean dry air or nitrogen containing small CO2 particles to efficiently remove foreign matter from a surface. It delivers a precisely controlled accelerated stream of solid carbon dioxide particles (i.e. snow) at high velocity. The snow is created from the conversion of liquid CO2 to solid CO2 particles and CO2 gas at the spray nozzle.

The OZPEN™ is superior to solvent cleaning wiping techniques and offers a quick dry and solvent-free cleaning process. It is more economical and versatile than snow guns with enclosures. It cleans a variety of substrates such as glass, metal, etc. and removes dust particles, polishing compounds, fingerprints, surface films, and other surface residues.

The OZPEN™ is a small surface area cleaning system designed for critical fiber optics and other manufacturing operations. It removes various residues, including dust particles, polishing compounds, fingerprints, and surface films, from critical substrate surfaces.

The OZPEN™ is effective in cleaning various high power fiber optic connectors and other components, optical elements, electro-optic sensors, medical devices, semiconductor and biomedical components surface cleaning, and optical coating preparation/cleaning.

Yes, the unique dry process of the OZPEN™ can remove very small particles (< 100 nm in size) without the need for using other wet cleaning techniques. However, embedded debris must be removed using other techniques.
