  • To ensure the proper installation and commissioning of the equipment.
  • BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SYSTEM
  • Basically these are Vertical Laminar Flow Clean air work station with HEPA filtered air sweeping the area from top to bottom for protection the products from contamination as well as preventing the operators from inhaling potentially harmful active materials during sampling, weighing and / or dispensing of powders. The filtered air picks up aerosolized particles and forces them to travel in a predetermined flow pattern until trapped by the Scavenging filters on the back panel of the unit. The air flow pattern is so maintained that the operators in the safe zone (approx in the 300 to 450 mm in to the open front of the cubicle) are not exposed to the dispersed particles. The return air passes through intermediates filters and enters the positive pressure plenum to be pushed downward through HEPA filters. 10% of the air is exhausted out of the zone through HEPA filters for maintaining a slight negative pressure inside to ensure that at no point of time air movement can be outward.
  • Two sets of motor blower in series ensures adequate air flow velocities and in- built glare free lighting forms a standard features of the execution.
