Wisdom Industrial Co., Ltd., a long-established supplier specializing in vacuum pumps and related filtration products, has introduced professional filtration solutions from U.S.-based **SOLBERG® Manufacturing** to the Taiwan market. By incorporating SOLBERG® technologies in vacuum filtration, gas-liquid separation, and contamination control, Wisdom is further expanding its presence in the semiconductor and advanced manufacturing sectors.
SOLBERG® has extensive expertise in industrial and vacuum filtration, gas-liquid separation, and oil mist control technologies. Its products can be integrated with vacuum pumps, blowers, air compressors, and a wide range of vacuum process equipment. The solutions are designed to protect critical equipment against dust, liquids, oil mist, vapors, and other contaminants generated during manufacturing processes, thereby reducing the risk of contamination entering key equipment, extending vacuum pump service life, and lowering maintenance costs.
SOLBERG® offers a comprehensive portfolio covering vacuum inlet filtration, gas-liquid and oil mist separation, vapor condensation, chemical adsorption, and high-vacuum filtration. The **ST/CT Series** is designed for rough- to medium-vacuum applications, while the **CSL Series** is suitable for both dry and oil-sealed vacuum pumps. For medium- to high-vacuum and high-cleanliness processes, the **WL Series** incorporates vacuum-specific connections and a variety of filtration media. Each unit is subjected to **100% helium leak testing** to help maintain vacuum system integrity.
As semiconductor manufacturing continues to advance toward finer geometries and higher cleanliness requirements, vacuum contamination control has become increasingly critical. Processes such as wafer fabrication, **Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD)**, and **Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD)** can generate particulates, dust, chemical vapors, and other by-products. If these contaminants continuously enter vacuum pumps, they may lead to reduced equipment performance and increased risks of maintenance requirements and production downtime.
SOLBERG® filtration solutions can be configured according to vacuum level, gas conditions, and contaminant characteristics. From the interception of particles and liquids at the vacuum inlet to the treatment of oil mist, vapors, and chemical contaminants, SOLBERG® enables a multi-layered protection strategy tailored to different process requirements. These technologies can also be extended to advanced manufacturing applications including vacuum coating, electronics, and solar energy production.

In addition to standard products, Wisdom can develop customized solutions using SOLBERG® products based on application-specific requirements such as gas flow rate, temperature, piping configuration, pressure drop, and contaminant characteristics.
One example is **rice husk biomass energy generation**. When rice husks are gasified to produce **syngas**, the resulting gas can be used by power generation equipment for energy conversion. However, the syngas may contain moisture, tar, oil mist, and fine contaminants that can adversely affect downstream equipment efficiency and long-term operational reliability.
For such applications, a Gas/Liquid Separator** combined with a two-stage filtration system can be implemented. The first stage removes liquid droplets, moisture, and tar, while the second stage uses high-precision stainless-steel filter elements to capture residual oil mist and fine contaminants. This configuration improves gas cleanliness while maintaining a low pressure drop.
The ability to move beyond standard filtration products and provide system solutions engineered around specific process conditions demonstrates the flexibility of SOLBERG® technologies across a broad range of industries.
By combining Wisdom’s filtration expertise with **Yuh Guan’s extensive experience in vacuum equipment**, the companies are integrating vacuum equipment, pump protection, and contamination control into a more comprehensive solution offering. Going forward, they will continue to expand their presence in the semiconductor, electronics, biomass energy, and advanced manufacturing markets, transforming vacuum filtration from a component used primarily for equipment protection into an essential element for improving overall process reliability.
