Reducing Contamination Issues With Air Showers

Air showers and tunnels supply concentrated Class 100, clean air flows to lift off contamination while an individual stands in, or walks through, a specially constructed air chamber. Whenever an automatic floor switch inside the unit is activated, pressurized air blows from adjustable nozzles at a velocity between 6,000 and 8,000 feet per minute (30 m/s and 41 m/s), a force that ensures efficient the scrubbing action necessary to remove particulate matter. (Air showers in units without floors are activated by motion sensors.)
