Description
Baldor ASR BTS10-5/10-24-RL-708 Servo Drive Control Board FSI Polaris
The Baldor ASR BTS10-5/10-24-RL-708 is a servo drive amplifier and control board designed for use in the FSI Polaris wafer processing and handling system. Manufactured in Germany by Baldor's ASR (Advanced Servo Robotics) division, this plug-in card-cage module handles closed-loop servo motor control functions including velocity regulation, current limiting, and protection logic for the wafer handler's axis drives. The board carries internal assembly number 21005B-001 and ID number 22542BA.

Applications
The Baldor ASR BTS series servo drive modules were used in automated semiconductor wafer handling and processing equipment — most notably the FSI Polaris wet processing and surface conditioning systems widely deployed in semiconductor fabs from the late 1980s through the 1990s and into the 2000s. Within these systems, servo amplifier boards like the BTS10 control the precision motion axes (wafer carrier lifts, robot arms, cassette handlers) that move wafers through chemical process baths. Baldor's ASR division specialized in servo drives for cleanroom and semiconductor automation environments, and these card-cage modules were typically housed in a central controller chassis that coordinated all motion functions of the tool. Replacement and spare BTS series boards remain in demand for facilities still operating FSI Polaris tools in legacy production or R&D environments.
This Baldor ASR BTS10-5/10-24-RL-708 servo drive control board has been inspected and appears to be in good condition. It was kept as a backup spare by a local semiconductor company and was never put into service — the company no longer needed the spare parts inventory and the board was released for resale. The PCB shows no obvious signs of damage, and the front panel faceplate and trim pot controls look clean. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
