Cleanroom environments, crucial to industries such as pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, electronics, and aerospace, require controlled conditions to ensure that air contaminants are minimised.
One of the most vital components of maintaining such an environment is the cleanroom HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) system.
The HVAC system plays a pivotal role in regulating airflow, temperature, humidity, and ensuring that particulate contamination is kept at bay.
To ensure that the cleanroom continues to meet the stringent air quality standards required, regular testing and maintenance of the HVAC system are essential.
One of the most important tests to perform on a cleanroom HVAC system is integrity testing, which assesses the system's ability to maintain the required pressure differential and prevent contaminants from infiltrating the space.
Here, Kjeld Lund from 14644 Cleanroom explores in detail how to perform integrity testing on a cleanroom HVAC system, covering the importance, methods, and best practices involved.
