Aspects To Consider While Launching A Cleanroom

Image
  In general a cleanroom is a place or a specific area of a known amount of space that is normally used in scientific research sectors. These cleanrooms are supposed to have a controlled level of airborne impurities such as dust, microbes, undesirable vapours and other similar contaminants. Nevertheless creating a cleanroom involves many aspects that are to be considered. The specifications basically involve the types of applications the room will operate on, equipment that may be needed, the maintenance that may be required and so on. Preferred extensively in sectors like semiconductor manufacturing, life sciences and other fields where in environmental contamination must be totally curbed, cleanrooms vary in size and areas where they can be very large or medium sized, depending on their utilities. Since the foremost intention is to supply clean air into the specific area, air that is allowed to enter a cleanroom must be subjected to accurate and meticulous filtratio...

Clean Room & Infection Control: A Sub-Discipline of Contagion Prevention

Image
Infection control is the specialty that is particularly concerned with preventing associated contaminations that may be harmful to humans and other living beings. In many geographical locations, infection prevention is considered as a vital element of public health and its allied concerns. Considered as an indispensable part of the substructure of health care it is analogous to public health practice that is consistently directed towards the society as a whole. While discussing infection control, factors associated to the spread of infections, it may span among patients, patients to staff, sometimes staff to patients and among staff. Preventive measures to check this kinds of infection spread, involves frequent washing of hands, cleaning and disinfecting of furniture like beds, chairs, tables, linen and other properties. Likewise, sterilizing the apparatus and devices, vaccinating the healthy individuals so that they do not catch up the infection are some methods of infec...

Stainless Steel Cleanroom Equipment And Their Specialities

Image
  A perfectly organized and implemented clean room equipment is essential to supplement the contamination free environment. Suppliers of of clean room equipment always insists on quality range of clean room equipment that meets all the clean room ethics. A general range of the clean room equipment includes laminar air flow unit and clean room air shower. Generally, all clean room equipment is designed and fabricated in stainless steel, which ensure efficient and unfailing performance and provide superior grade resistance against water damages, chemical actions and corrosion due to its protective nature of the outer surface. Nevertheless, the stainless surface prevents build-up and multiplication of a range of bacteria, fungus and other microbes. This equipment made from stainless steel has another very versatile property that it is very easy to sanitize and maintain the utmost hygiene level essential in the clean room. Stainless steel cleanroom equipment and parts ar...

Cleanrooms And The Aspects That Go With The Set-up

Image
  Clean rooms are those areas which are free from any contaminants that may otherwise interfere in the basic processes that take place in the specific environment. Clean rooms are generally a pre-requisite for research laboratories, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage manufacturing units, OTs in hospitals and nursing homes that offer speciality treatments, some microprocessor and integrated circuit manufacturing electronic industries and similar areas. The construction of cleanrooms must be carried out with utmost skill and expertise. This is because the cleanroom utility is one of the most important and critical working areas especially in the case of food, pharma and research labs. Various aspects related to cleanrooms must be taken into consideration before designing a clean room. First of all, the area of the room to be constructed matters because based on that the equipment needed to be deployed will be decided. Likewise, the lighting system in a cleanroom must al...

Importance of cleanroom and hospital equipment and services

Image
  Even a small amount of environmental contaminants such as dust particles, airborne bacteria and microbes, other microscopic aerosol particles, and chemical vapours pose a threat to certain manufacturing units and scientific research. So to overcome this difficulty, a fully air-locked and concealed area, termed a cleanroom in technical terms, with a controlled level of contamination must be created. The size of cleanrooms is usually large so as to accommodate all equipment, a work area, safe zones, etc. In general, clean rooms do have some mandatory regulations that have to be followed, and likewise, having a set of equipment is a must for a cleanroom to be called complete. This equipment includes high-efficiency and ultra-low penetration air filters, air showers, and airlocks, through which air entering the room is filtered, wherein the airborne particle and air quality levels are tested by a particle counter to ascertain that they are well within the permissible number. A cleanr...

An overview of a cleanroom and its equipment

Image
  Specified areas with dedicated research and/or production facilities coupled with a zero level of contamination are called "cleanrooms." Basically designed to function at an exceedingly low level of particulates and airborne organisms, cleanrooms are very much essential in sectors like life science research laboratories, pharmaceutical establishments, and electronic component manufacturing units. All the same, there are certain parameters that have to be considered and followed. These cleanrooms must comply with specifications that are mandatory, and there are applications that the room must be equipped with. Another important aspect is that proper upkeep is required to sustain the cleanliness of the cleanroom. A cleanroom is generally equipped with a high-efficiency particulate air filter system and ultra-low penetration air filters to efficiently filter fine dust particles and also eliminate any possible airborne floating contaminants. Likewise, airlocks or air shower...

Role of humidity in the Domestic and Internal Environment

Image
  The level of humidity in any environment plays a very significant role in sustaining a pleasant environment, especially during hot weather. This is where the importance of Air-conditioning & Humidity Control comes into play. Where the system not only cools the temperature but also regulates your humidity by bringing it under control. As a matter of fact, very high moisture levels in the atmosphere can become a stable source for viruses, bacteria, and mold to increase, which will certainly affect the indoor air quality. This activity is a vital one while we consider the environment of a hospital or a health care unit, where the temperature has to be maintained at a constant level with zero humidity in order to control bacterial and other pathogenic survival and multiplication. An air conditioning system can manage temperature as well as humidity within the allocated area. It is a general notion that the air conditioning unit can only cool a room, but on the contrary, it doe...
