Key Principles of Effective Cleanroom Design Cleanrooms are used in various manufacturing industries, like semiconductors and pharmaceuticals, where a high degree of contamination-free environments is the requirement for production, from manufacturing to packaging. Keeping a cleanroom certified for use in production by the FDA and other governing bodies requires the work of systems engineers, technicians, and maintenance staff. Each machine may have individual exhaust systems for removing contaminated air and particulates. Every cleanroom must be able to control particulate matter, static, outgassing, and equipment failure, which can lead to contamination events. These failures can include power glitches, pressure malfunctions, fan motor failure, and wafer handling machine breakdowns.

Cleanrooms are enclosed environments that have tight control over the following: Temperature | Humidity Airflow Pressure Filtration Temperature | Humidity Airflow Pressure Filtration Noise Level Vibration Lighting Airborne Particles Noise Level Vibration Lighting Airborne Particles Cleanroom facilities must precisely regulate these parameters to maintain the highest air quality standards, all while optimizing productivity. The purpose of cleanroom air conditioning system is to supply airflow in sufficient volume and cleanliness to support the cleanliness rating of the room. Air is introduced to the cleanroom in a manner to prevents stagnant areas where particles could accumulate. At Dpstar, we know that quality and design are paramount to deliver a first class efficient, and effective cleanroom environment and can offer the complete range of HVAC cleanroom solutions to suit. What is an air handling unit (AHU)? Each cleanroom requires a powerful air-handling system to manufacture pharmaceuticals, medical equipment, semiconductors, and healthcare products. An air handling unit (AHU) is a device used to condition and circulate air as part of a heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) system. An air handling unit (AHU) is a device that controls the temperature, humidity, and pressure of controlled environments. As part of the HVAC system, it acts as a high-capacity air handling unit, facilitating the movement and air-conditioning of clean rooms. 304 stainless steel construction with a filter system, back-blowing fan, and cooling unit helps to air-condition fresh air into the clean room. AHUs can be simple or complex, depending on the needs of the cleanroom. Simple AHUs consist of a HEPA filter, a heating coil, a cooling coil, and a fan to push air through the unit. More complex AHUs also contain a sound attenuator, return fan, relief air section, humidifier, and intakes for outside air, and a discharge plenum. Main functions of an AHU In addition to managing the proper ventilation of the interior with outside air, the AHU performs other functions: Filtration and control of the quality of the air that will reach the interior and depending on the retention of these filters, the air will be clean. Control of the air temperature that regulates the air conditioning system in cold or hot, so that the thermal sensation in the interior is the desired one. Relative humidity monitoring for greater indoor comfort. Dpstar HVAC Control System For Cleanroom The HVAC system is at the heart of the cleanroom. HVAC is actually the most complex and important system of a cleanroom facility as the HVAC is responsible for controlling air cleanliness, temperature, humidity, and pressure. Developing a proper HVAC design for cleanroom applications requires special knowledge and expertise. Reliably controlling and monitoring ventilation and air conditioning parameters has been one of our core competencies for many decades. With our tailored cleanroom solutions, you profit from minimized installation and operating costs as well as a high level of security against failure. Our HVAC portfolio combines quality and reliability with the highest possible energy efficiency: Precise Environmental Control Precisely measure and control the cleanroom environment and its parameters including temperature and humidity, airflow volumes, particle concentrations and pressure differentials.

Success Stories Upgrade HVAC System For Texas Instrument Philippines Cleanroom With years of experience in cleanroom manufacturing and hundreds of successfully completed projects, Dpstar can design and supply the best cleanroom HVAC units, meeting both your requirements and your budget. Since the clean room HVAC air handling units are at the heart of your cleanroom, it should not be taken lightly. With our experienced in-house engineering team, Dpstar will analyze all the aspects of the cleanroom ventilation system in order to design and build you a comfortable cleanroom that exceeds your requirements. Cleanrooms depend on precisely controlled environmental conditions. To minimize contamination risks and protect people and assets, their technological infrastructure must adhere to the most stringent quality standards. It’s important that engineers in the semiconductor industry have access to specialized HVAC equipment that meets the bleeding edge demand in the field. All aspects of the semiconductor manufacturing industry require specialized ventilation equipment to maintain production efficiency. Our client wanted to upgrade the existing system HVAC for local use if the remote is down. The project required Dpstar’s solution to monitor AHU behavior by giving data parameters through Modbus configuration and using PLC as a gateway to communicate with SCADA. AHU systems are part of HVAC systems, which provide free hygienic air to rooms. Air is re-circulated as a part of ventilation and also helps in energy saving and management. The aim of the project is to automate the air handling process to the room, with the help of PLC programming done in ladder logic. AHU screen is developed in SCADA, monitoring, and controlling processing parameters (temperature, humidity, air velocity, pressure, etc..) as per the set point with the use of PID control, and VFD drives are done in real-time. Along with that safety precautions like motor safety, emergency stop, are also easily monitored in SCADA. A graphical view of the process is observed and recorded. We installed a Vaisala RH/Temperature sensor on the return ducting AHU (air handling unit) for Texas Instrument Philippine HVAC system for their clean room. Vaisala is used together with Shimaden controller to control the heater as output to stabilize the humidity in AHU. We also modified programs to add new I/O tags for the existing programs and supplied new analog cards for Siemens PLC. From the project, we conclude that air handling systems with SCADA monitoring are effective. It is easy to control the system through SCADA. Integration of PID controller in the PLC is accurate maintenance of target value reached. Due to the higher priority given to humidity, it indirectly controls the temperature.
