K. Schneider has penned a thought provoking article in a recent edition of
Controlled Environments about the failure to think through and to design
cleanrooms correctly. Then article it titled “Why Do Cleanrooms Fail to Meet
Owners Expectations?”
The
introduction to the article reads:
“Over
many years of consulting with cleanroom owner/operators a number of recurring
problem areas that negatively affected the performance of clean facilities,
HVAC as well architecture related, were identified. Such problems, if
appropriately addressed during the design phase can be avoided; if identified
after construction, possibly as a result of an unfavorable certification test
report, or perhaps product quality concerns, can frequently be corrected, at a
cost.”
In
the article, the following areas are discussed: maintainability, pressure
differentials, equipment related contamination, personnel issues, humidity
control, size and space, and air movement.
