Air Shower

Material Handling Air Shower are self-contained units, installed at the entrance of a clean room and other controlled environment chambers for minimizing the entry of dust particles and other particulate matters into the working area. The Material Handling Air Shower is designed to provide and maintain clean room conditions for research applications and particle sensitive manufacturing processes. These energy efficient units are fully self-contained and well equipped to provide and sustain a highly sterile working environment. Our versatile Air Showers are quite adept at controlling the level of contamination for particle sensitive processes such as disc drive and semiconductor manufacturing, pharmaceutical drug testing and for research applications involving molecular biology and biochemical experiments, cell and tissue culture experiments etc.

They are available in both standard and customized designs to suit the requirements of the industry. The entire air shower assembly is HEPA/ULPA filtered, pre-wired and tested, ready to use with a simple plug-in, therefore providing an unmatched ease of operation. Moreover, the use of high quality construction materials ensures unparalleled manufacturing quality, whereas the highly efficient blowers and motors ensure long lasting dependable results.

3 types of configurations are available:

One side flow: The unit allows one-way operation, with the clean side door locked and the grey side door unlocked at the idle state. This mode of operation helps in controlling the flow of traffic in and out of the clean room for maintaining maximum sterility in the working area.

Two side flow: The unit allows both side flows, allowing the air showers to be activated in both the directions. The user can exit through the clean room door or the grey side door, without compromising the sanctity of the clean air environment. This mode of operation prevents the egress of harmful contaminants from the clean room to the outside environment, making the unit particularly useful in pharmaceutical industries, animal research laboratories and other applications that require working with harmful and biohazardous substances.

Tower flow: the flow is from the upper roof of the shower.

• Programmable operating modes
• Programmable mode of operation, pre-purge and shower time
• Floor matting operated switch for sequential operation of the air shower
• Fully washable pre-filters capable of removing around 85% of particulate matters
• Highly efficient HEPA filters with around 99.99% filtration efficiency for removing particles as small as 0.3 microns and larger.
• Both the doors are Interlocked and magnetically operated to prevent them from opening at the same time
