In the electronics world, moisture creates a host of reliability problems including:
We wanted to dive into moisture mitigation, so Mike Konrad invited two guests to discuss this very topic. Dan Jenkins is sales manager and partner of the Steel Camel, an industrial solutions company specializing in corrosion and water intrusion control for fuel systems and industrial equipment. Prior to Steel Camel, Dan worked as consultant and instructor in the crane accident prevention industry. He has consulted to large organizations such as Shell Oil, and the United States Department of Interior. Dan earned an MBA from the University of South Florida and earned his BA in Industrial Arts / Technology from Cal St. University Chico and his Post-Secondary Teaching Credential from San Francisco State University.
Bob Lowry has bachelor's and master's degrees in chemistry. His experience includes 31 years as sr. scientist and lab manager for three integrated circuit manufacturing companies, where measurement of moisture and moisture control activities were a major part of services he provided. He has 20 years of experience consulting to the microelectronics industry on a wide variety of topics including materials analysis and measurements and methods of moisture control for electronic components.
