Differential Pressure in Cleanrooms Explained

Differential pressure in cleanrooms is typically when cleanroom user wants higher pressure in cleanroom than in ambient area around cleanroom to prevent dirt from entering cleanroom thru cracks, crevices, or when doors are opened. When a door is cracked open you can feel the air exiting from a positive pressure cleanroom. Magnehelic gauges are installed in cleanrooms so the positive pressure can be monitored.

Pharmaceutical Cleanroom Design & ISO 14644-16

Cleanrooms and controlled contamination environments are increasingly being used across many industrial sectors, including the pharmaceutical industry. An important issue is the operating cost associated with cleanroom energy consumption and, consequently, the identification of applicable energy containment measures. This article reviews pharmaceutical cleanroom calculations for non-unidirectional airflow against energy consumption with known sources of contamination and type of air diffusion used. It proposes alternative cases to compare potential economic savings from applying energy-saving measures proposed by ISO 14644-16.1
