Cleanrooms are dynamic and delicate environments. With one of the primary goals of the cleanroom being to maintain a clean atmosphere with minimal particulates, HVAC plays a critical role in cleanliness. Since HVAC is so important for the cleanroom, it is important to accurately spec out what is needed for the cleanroom. This starts with establishing which ISO or class the cleanroom will be. Cleanrooms require different levels of cleanliness, depending on which process will be conducted within the cleanroom. It is quite common that some areas of the cleanroom may require a higher level of cleanliness than others. Air flows from the cleanest areas of the room to the least, and arranging the room in this manner will use the HVAC system most efficiently. Another important aspect to cleanroom design is future expansion and flexibility. Cleanrooms often work with technology that improves or changes, which does necessitate flexibility within the design of the cleanroom. Cleanroom operators are turning to a method of building that is growing in popularity called modular construction. Modular construction is built with flexibility in mind. Using streamlined fabrication methods, the modular cleanrooms are built in a factory. These factories operate under controlled conditions and are held to very high quality control standards. After completion of the cleanroom components in the factory, they are shipped to the build site. Not only are modular cleanrooms assembled in a fraction of the time it would take other methods of construction, but they also come with an enhanced flexibility. Modular cleanrooms can easily be moved or the walls rearranged. This allows your cleanroom to have future flexibility to accommodate future changes in technology. In conclusion, having a cleanroom that is designed properly with the right kind of HVAC is vitally important to cleanroom cleanliness. HVAC units help ensure the room’s cleanliness, and using modular construction will save time and money.
