FEATURESHigh-velocity air jets- High-velocity shower jets running at 18-30 m/s to ensure efficient scrubbing action to remove particulate matterStainless steel nozzles
- Permanently lubricated direct drive centrifugal blowers used in conjunction with stainless steel air nozzlesProgrammable operation
- Operating modes can be programmed in the fieldOperating modes can be programmed in the field
- Microprocessor controller supervises all functions
HEPA or ULPA filtration- Filter efficiency of H14 HEPA filter(s) is 99.9995% at 0.3 micron particles, while ULPA filter(s) provide 99.9999% typical efficiency for particle sizes of 0.1 to 0.3 microns.Pre-filtration
- A disposable prefilter with 85% arrestance extends the life of the main filter.Emergency buttons
- An emergency stop button is mounted on both sides of the showerIndicator lights to signal door status
- Indicator lights mounted on both sides of the exterior of the air shower to regulate traffic flow, in and out of the cleanroom.Durable doors
- Heavy-duty, durable doors with glass windows to permit visibility.Powder-coated steel construction
- The air shower is constructed of electrogalvanized steel sheets with an abrasion-resistant oven-baked powder coated finish. (Optional: Stainless steel 304 construction)Uniform lighting
- Light diffusers ensure uniform lighting throughout the chamber
Principle- Air is forced by the blower(s) through ULPA filter(s) which are 99.9995% efficient against particles of 0.3 microns.
- Filtered air is ejected through nozzles at high velocities into the chamber. These turbulent air streams disperse particulate matter on all surfaces.
- Dispersed particulate matter migrate with the air stream towards the lower areas in the air shower chamber. Air enters the blower supply plenum through pre-filter(s) installed at the base of the chamber.
- The air is continuously filtered and recirculated. The air shower is a self-contained device and does not exchange air with the environment it is placed in.
Operating SequenceUnlike conventional air showers which are delivered with a fixed operating sequence, the Airomax Cleanroom Air Shower’s operating sequence may be selected from three pre-programmed sequences:
- One-Way
(Left Illustration): Personnel may enter the controlled environment but not exit through the air shower. At the idle state, the clean side door is locked while the grey side is unlocked. This mode of operation is useful for controlling traffic patterns in and out of the controlled environment.
- Two-Way One-Way
(Middle Illustration): Personnel may enter or exit the controlled environment through the air shower. The air shower program is able to detect if the person is entering or exiting the controlled environment via door sensors and a time-sequenced control. - Two-Way
(Right Illustration): Personnel may enter or exit the controlled environment through the air shower. In both directions, the air shower is activated. This mode of operation is useful in pharmaceutical and lab animal research applications to prevent the egress of hazardous substances and allergens from the controlled environment.
