What is Air Shower Clean Room?
The Air Shower Clean Room is designed to serve as a gate controller between the clean production room and the outside world. Generally installed as an entry system, they reduce contamination by minimizing the entry and exit of particles in controlled laboratory environments such as clean rooms. Although protective clothing and protective equipment along with strict regulatory guidelines are used to prevent the entry of external contaminants, sometimes they are not sufficient. A small amount of debris or lint can compromise the integrity of a substance in a clean and controlled environment. Air Shower Clean Room has gained popularity and has become part of a large list of laboratory equipment due to its effectiveness in reducing potential contaminants and maintaining product safety.
How Does Air Shower Clean Room Work?
Air Shower Clean Room is a self-contained space that functions at high speed and low pressure. When someone enters the room, the high-speed airflow fan that turns on is the air shower. With double locking doors, the room itself is known as an airlock. For easier understanding, we refer to this whole system as an air shower room.
Both shower room doors cannot be opened at the same time. A person enters the room, the door then locks after which high velocity steam from the HEPA filtered air blows onto the person. The remaining particulates are "rubbed" from the person, to the low-pressure side of the chamber. After a total of 8 to 12 seconds of this process, the second door opens, leading to the clean room.
Thorough and effective processes ensure that people entering the controlled environment are free of contaminants.
Why Do You Need a Clean Room Air Shower?
In addition to regulatory guidelines and protective equipment, shower room water serves as an extra precaution against harmful particles. In industries where these are used, examples of hazardous contaminants can spoil entire batches of product. This leads to a waste of resources, time, energy and ultimately, money. Personnel working in controlled environments are generally very careful about contamination. However, if they are not careful enough (as needed), the water shower ensures protection.
