Environmental Rooms

High Quality
Manufacturing Rooms

Specifications

PURPOSE: To control temperature and humidity of the room and to isolate the manufacturing process from outside dirt contamination, thus insuring the best possible manufacturing results. These rooms are also known as Clean rooms, Cleanrooms or White rooms.

Typical Design CRITERIA

1. Buildings should be large enough to operate, clean and maintain the equipment, they should also allow for a forklift to bring large items or supplies if needed..
2. Storage space for materials to bring it to the proper temperature may be important.
3. Buildings can be high cube design as needed to allow for easy movement of product on conveyors.
4. Custom wall penetrations can be made to move product via conveyors through the building.
5. Product openings in the wall are designed for the specific product. Large openings will require a tubular steel frame design.
6. Buildings are to have maximum clear span roof design and have a minimum number of column supports as practical.
7. Large door openings (typically a steel framed opening for garage doors) to allow for equipment removal or maintenance can be provided.
8. Man doors are provided.
9. Windows are provided to allow monitoring of the product.
10. Walls and ceilings should be made of smooth easy to clean surfaces.
11. Standard electrical and lighting can be provided .
12. Removable panel sections are available.
13. Floors should be sealed. Tiling should be considered. Vacuum systems for materials spills should also be considered.
14. The room should have positive air pressure to prevent contamination from entering the room. Air velocity should be approximately 120 fpm through any part openings. Air vents should be distributed uniformly through the building and should not exceed 50 fpm, these vents should not be positioned over the booth or next to booth openings.
15. Air conditioning should allow for 60° to 80° Fahrenheit, and 40 - 70 % relative humidity.
16. Return air velocity should be less than 50 fpm and filtered to prevent particulate as small as 2 microns from entering the exchanger coil.
