Particle/Contaminant Removal System
Featured at InterPhex '98
CleanTech systems from Meritech, Inc. are an effective tool for particle/contaminant removal from bare as well as gloved hands. Whether connected to DI water for glove washing or tap for handwashing, the systems offer a significant reduction of harmful contaminants. Systems are usually placed in pre-gown, gown, and process areas. Models available to the cleanroom market include the 2000S and the 2000SDI.
CleanTech systems provide up to 95% reduction of particles 0.3 micron and larger from gloved hands; greater than 80% reduction of sodium chloride from bare hands. The systems encourage standardization of the wash procedure, thereby eliminating any variability associated with manual washing.
It is possible to eliminate double-gloving and wash gloves with the CleanTech system in stead of discarding. The systems reduce water and utility usage compared to conventional methods.
Options include:
- Ultra-pure internal plumbing for DI applications
- Heated air curtain for hand/glove drying
- Mirror finish
- Exhaust port
- Solutions aspiration
- Adjustable cycle length
- Self cleaning
