There are several classifications of cleanrooms, determined by the maximum level of particles allowed in measurements of the air within the room. Whether a class 1 room—with the most stringent restrictions on air quality and a difficult and rare condition to achieve—or a less restrictive class, when it comes to allowable contaminates all require expert protocol and
cleanroom solutions.
Since all classes share a common goal to eliminate and avoid contamination of the area, understanding the potential sources of contamination is important. Once the sources are identified, proper actions can be taken to address each and improve the conditions of the room.
