Figure 7: A skilled worker working on a cleanroom installation process

The clean room installation and construction process requires proper management of the whole process if you want to end up with a working clean room.

Some projects might be taken as DIY projects, but that does not apply to clean rooms. This is because they need more experience and expertise in handling the project.

As part of the clean room installation, several technicians of different qualifications will be necessary to make the whole process seamless. Such include the clean room designer, validation manager, senior project manager, superintendent, and more. It all depends on the project’s scope and how many people it will need to complete and commission it fully.

The construction process will involve the following stages of clean room installation.

Regular Construction

This is a common construction stage that any contractor can handle during the clean room installation process.

During this part, the contractors will prepare the area where the clean room needs to be set up and make any necessary changes to accommodate the clean room.

All the workers need to have their personal protective equipment set up so that they do not end up with injuries when such can all be avoided. This will include vests, safety glasses, and hard hats.

Clean Construction

During the previous stage, cleanliness was not a big deal. Here, cleanliness starts to be a major consideration as you are setting up the clean room now.

Depending on the project, there might be the need to do daily cleanups with vacuums to maintain the construction area’s cleanliness.

The team also ensures no debris or trash is left behind after the day’s work is complete. Sometimes it is advisable to use sticky mats and rugs to help keep the dirt outside.

Pre-clean Room Construction

At this point, additional cleanliness is necessary by the team getting into the construction section. There might be the need to have the workers wear botties or use sticky mats to keep the dirt to a minimum.

The installation team can also install the air purification and filtration systems at this point.

Clean Room Construction

When you perform clean room installation, there are some things to keep in mind if you want your clean room to work as expected. We look at them below to help you learn more about the clean room supplies.

✧   The HEPA filter is an integral part of owning a clean room. It is essential for filtering the small particles to the size of 0.3 microns. At this point, it is not easy to get contaminants in your clean room. Make sure to pass the air through the HEPA filters to remove any contaminants before the air gets into the clean room.

✧   As much as HEPA filters are essential, ventilation is also crucial. Ventilation is necessary for maintaining the air quality and removing the used air from the clean room. Depending on the clean room needs, you might have to include a lot more ventilation devices and techniques.

✧   The air pressure also needs to be maintained within the right range. This is because clean rooms require a static pressure higher than what you get with the atmospheric pressure. The aim is to prevent infiltration by the wind. Sometimes there is the need for airlocks to minimize compromising the process.

✧   Of course, you also have to consider the temperature and humidity you get with the clean room. When maintained in the desired range, these two mean that you end up with consistent conditions for the equipment and materials inside the clean room. Also, they can affect the comfort and safety of the people working in the clean room.

✧   The architecture of the clean room needs to allow for consistent air flow in the whole cleanroom. Before you can get to clean room installation, there is the need to test the architecture to see if it will offer the best air flow in the clean room.

✧   To ensure that the clean room is working correctly, you have to install measuring equipment during the clean room installation process. You need equipment to measure aspects such as humidity, temperature, air flow, particle count, cleanliness, and much more. The measurement is important to ensure that these factors remain within the right levels.

That is not all as the list can keep going. As Zonsteel performs clean room installation, the team will give you additional tips on how to make your clean room better. This should leave you with a clean room that can handle the different applications you had planned for.

How Do You Get a Clean Room Certified?

Figure 10: Hepa filter test equipment

Before a clean room can be used for various applications, it will need to be certified to meet the laid-out regulations. This comes after the clean room installation process is over and you are ready to use the clean room.

There will be some tests that need to be carried about to ensure that the clean room is working correctly. Here are some of the tests.

Airborne Particle Count

Airborne particle count testing as part of clean room installation and maintenance helps to ascertain the clean room’s cleanliness. Using your naked eye, you would not know if the room is having particles.

The use of air bone particle count gives the user vital information about the level of cleanliness. It also helps you know when it is time to change the filters or if the new filters are not sufficient in their performance.

Airflow Reading

This test is all about determining that there is proper air flow patterns in the clean room. It is not just about flowing, but also achieving the right volume for the desired air change rate.

Sometimes, there might be the need to make a few changes to the air flow until it meets your desired performance. Each type of clean room installation will have its desired airflow readings it has to maintain.

Hepa Filter Integrity Testing

The HEPA filter is an essential part of clean room installation. If the filter is correctly installed, then you will experience the best air quality in the clean. It is why you need this test to ascertain that the HEPA filter is working correctly as expected.

Air Pressure Differential

The air pressure differential is crucial for helping control the contamination and other particulates in a clean room. Depending on the type of clean room, the air pressure might have to be high to keep the contaminants from affecting the product. So, several tests have to be carried out based on the clean room types to ensure contaminants are kept to a minimum as much as possible.

Air Volumes and Changes

This test is important for calculating the number of times air exchanges occur in the clean room per hour. The same test is carried out to determine the air volume changes too. The aim is to have the clean room working at the desired air volume and changes for its type.

It might be necessary to perform some changes to the filtration system to ensure the air volume and changes are within the stipulated range for a clean room of its type.

The number of tests that have to be done after a clean room installation are many. Additional tests include containment leak test, smoke visualizing test, safety cabinet assessment, ambient comfort test, and recovery rate testing.

The tests can be more or less depending on the type of clean room and the level of cleanliness you are trying to achieve.

What Equipment Should You Include in a Clean Room after Installation?

So, why would someone choose to get a modular clean room installation? Here are some of the reasons that make modular clean rooms popular right now.

✧   One good thing about modular cleanrooms is that they can be builtfaster and easily. You simply have to set up the prefabricated panels to form a clean room with ease. The Zonsteel clean room installation team will then not have to take too long to complete the installation process. This means you can be able to start using the cleanroom as soon as possible.

✧   You will also notice that the modular clean rooms often have low running costs. This is because they come with a very efficient design. This makes them very cheap to run. They will also require less outdoor air to control their temperature and humidity. On overall, the energy cost will be lower compared to what you get with other types of clean room designs.

✧   They are easy to maintain. The modular clean rooms are easier to maintain compared to what you get with brick and motor cleanrooms. In case there is a damage in the wall, the clean room installation team only has to replace a single panel. The same cannot be said when using the brick and mortar clean rooms.

✧   The overall performance of modular clean rooms also makes them desirable. It is why you can get them having multiple applications in different fields. This includes science, manufacturing, medicine, and more. When the clean rooms are fitted with HEPA filters, they become more efficient at removing the tiny particles to leave you with a clean working environment.

This is because you can have additional panels set up on the existing clean room to make it bigger. Still, if you want to move it, then the clean room can be taken down and moved to a new location. As such, you will end up with a clean room that is versatile and can be reused whenever you want.
