An ISO Class 7 clean room is a controlled environment designed to minimize airborne particle contamination. It complies with the ISO 14644-1 standard, specifying maximum allowable particle counts for particles ≥ 0.5 micrometers in size within the clean room.

Features

• Airborne Particle Control

  ISO Class 7 standard permits a maximum of 352,000 particles per cubic meter of air for particles ≥0.5 micrometers, ensuring a clean and controlled atmosphere.

• Air Filtration

  High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) or Ultra-Low Penetration Air (ULPA) filters are used to remove particles from the air. These filters are strategically placed to achieve uniform air cleanliness throughout the clean room.

• Temperature and Humidity Control

  Precise control of temperature and humidity is maintained to meet the specific requirements of the processes or products within the clean room.

• Clean Room Design

  Wall, ceiling, and floor materials are selected to minimize particle generation. Smooth, non-porous surfaces make cleaning and decontamination easier.

• Personnel Garb and Protocols

  Employees entering the clean room wear specialized cleanroom garments, including gloves, masks, and shoe covers. Protocols for gowning and hygiene are enforced to prevent contamination.

• Clean Room Equipment

  Equipment used within the clean room is selected and designed to minimize particle generation. Regular maintenance and cleaning schedules are also implemented for equipment to prevent contamination.

• Monitoring and Testing

  Continuous monitoring of particle counts, temperature, humidity, and other relevant parameters is conducted to ensure compliance. Routine testing and validation are performed to verify the clean room's performance.

Applications

ISO Class 7 clean rooms are crucial in industries where precision and cleanliness are paramount, including:

• Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

  Ensures the production of sterile drugs and medical devices.

• Microelectronics

  Protects sensitive electronic components from contamination.

• Biotechnology

  Maintains a controlled environment for research and manufacturing of biopharmaceuticals.

• Aerospace

  Critical for the assembly and testing of aerospace components.
