Abstract

The present disclosure generally relates to an isolation device for use in processing systems. The isolation device has a body with an inlet opening disposed at a first end coupled to a processing system component such as a remote plasma source and outlet openings, for example two, disposed at a second end which are coupled to a processing system component such as a process chamber. Flaps disposed within the body are actuatable to an open position from a closed position or to a closed position from an open position, to selectively allow or prevent passage of a fluid from the processing system component coupled to the isolation device to the other processing system component coupled thereto.
