The 1500m² PanelBloc cleanroom
This large ISO-Class 8 PanelBloc cleanroom is installed on the premise at a international manufacturer of high-tech components. In addition to the main area of almost 1000 m², the cleanroom is equipped with various other ares, specifically designed for the customer process. The entire process of assembly, cleaning, testing and packaging of the high-tech components will take place in this cleanroom.
Due to its size, layout and desired specifications, while maintaining maximum performance, it was decided to build the cleanroom from the patented PanelBloc® cleanroom system. The PanelBloc panels have a special coating that allows the area’s to be cleaned quickly and optimally, and all walls and ceiling are completely flush.
As currently installed, the cleanroom can accommodate up to 70 cleanroom operators working in the cleanroom at the same time, divided over different workstations. To ensure that the desired air exchange is achieved with a full occupancy of 70 cleanroom operators, while the desired ISO class (8) and air speed continues to function at maximum performance. 67 air swirl diffusers in combination with an AHU (Air handling unit) equipped with high capacity HEPA filtration are installed.
Excellent soundproofing performance
One of the conditions that the cleanroom had to meet was the availability of two test rooms with excellent soundproofing performance. In these test rooms, products are extensively subjected to a very intensive vibration test, during which a maximum noise level of 90 dB (decibels) is achieved.
The extra thick sound-resistant walls and special roll-up doors provide a noise reduction of 20 to 30 dB. As a result, the maximum noise level in the adjacent areas remains within prescribed maximums.
Optimal working environment
Our client finds the well-being of its employees very important, which is why the cleanroom is equipped with a high-capacity air conditioning system for heating and cooling. This ensures that the temperature has a constant value of 21 degrees (+/- 1 degree) and the humidity has a value of 50% (+/- 10%).
Sufficient and pleasant lighting was also an important point of attention. To ensure sufficient lighting, 188 LED panels are integrated completely flush into the ceiling, according to a predetermined lighting plan.
Customer-specific layout of the cleanroom
During the development of the cleanroom, the work process was directly taken into account. Together with our customer, close attention has been paid to the placement of workstations, goods area and other areas, to ensure that processes can run as efficiently as possible and cleanroom operators do not need to waste time unnecessarily having to move items to the other side of the cleanroom and thus lose time in their work process. The internal height of 4.5m gives a spacious feeling and allows tooling of different sizes to be entered the clean room with ease.
All doors are equipped with a self-closing interlock system. For maximum safety, the cleanroom is equipped with safety systems such as smoke detectors, emergency lighting and a special emergency door that can only be opened from the inside.
Direct benefits for the user:
- Full turnkey solution – design, hardware, installation, furniture and accessories: a single point of contact.
- Maximum cleanliness performance due to fully flush walls, floor and ceiling.
- Maximum cosmetic appearance for client and supplier presentation.
- Lowest power consumption and operating costs in the market.
