Cleanroom Filter Assurance

 The ScanAir system delivers a fast, reliable solution for verifying the integrity of HEPA and ULPA filters in cleanrooms and other controlled environments. Lightweight and ergonomically designed, ScanAir enables upstream and downstream testing modes with an intuitive interface — making filter leaks easy to detect, size and quantify in compliance with industry standards.

Efficient HEPA/ULPA Testing

The ScanAir Series combines advanced features like a touchscreen user interface, remote‑start/stop capabilities, visual and audible alarms, and automatic calculation of alarm thresholds. With a 1.0 CFM (28.3 L/min) flow rate, adjustable scan head, and upstream/downstream measurement modes, it supports ISO 14644‑1/3 compliance and enables challenge testing of PTFE and fiberglass filter media at concentrations much lower than photometers.

Real-Time Remote Data

ApexR seamlessly integrates into existing facility monitoring systems (FMS) or building automation systems (BAS) for real-time data streaming, enabling prompt responses to any deviations from set parameters.

Versatile Applications

ApexR is ideal for monitoring cleanrooms from ISO Class 1 to 8, making it suitable for a wide range of industries. Detecting particles as small as 0.2 microns (depending on model), it provides comprehensive air quality monitoring.

Data Records

Effortlessly and securely store up to 3,000 particle count records. ApexR provides real-time continuous data collection at a cost-effective price per point, ensuring unmatched performance, accuracy, and reliability.

VHP Compatible

Housed in a 304 stainless steel enclosure and compatible with rigorous decontamination methods—including vaporized hydrogen peroxide (VHP) sterilization—the ApexR is ready for the most demanding environments.

Particle Monitoring for
Industrial Gas Applications

Contaminants in argon can affect its inertness, leading to unwanted reactions in processes where argon is used to create a stable, non-reactive environment. This is crucial in applications like shielding gases in welding or inert atmospheres in metal manufacturing.

Due to its small atomic size, helium is highly sensitive to particle contamination. Contaminants can affect its efficacy as a cooling medium in cryogenics and its purity in gas chromatography, impacting the accuracy and efficiency of these processes.

Particle contaminants in CO2 can affect its properties as a supercritical fluid, impacting its use in extraction and cleaning processes. In applications where CO2 is used for carbonation or as a refrigerant, purity is essential for both product quality and process efficiency.

Nitrogen is often used for creating inert atmospheres in various industries. Particle contaminants in nitrogen can introduce impurities into these processes, affecting everything from the quality of pharmaceutical products to the integrity of electronic components in semiconductors

In semiconductor manufacturing, impurities in ammonia can lead to defects in nitride films, affecting the performance of electronic devices. In chemical synthesis, contaminants can alter reaction pathways, leading to undesired products or yields.

Other Inert Gases Inert gases like neon, xenon, and krypton are used in specialized applications where their specific properties are crucial. Particle contaminants can alter these properties, thereby affecting the performance in applications like lighting, imaging, or as carrier gases.
