SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Apollo.32 (ap.32) ultrapure cleanroom fog machine uses liquid nitrogen and deionized water or wfi water to generate about 5 cubic meters of ultra pure fog per minute with a fog density of 533 ml per minute during a 75 minute operating cycle. The fog output is adjustable from 2-5 cubic meters per minute.
The ap.32 provides fog of highest purity, cleanliness and pure paper white density being unmatched by any other clean room suitable fog generating technology in the market. The ap.32 complies with iso 14644-3 visual airflow requirements, semiconductor clean room guidelines, usp 797 insitu airflow analysis to provide 3d airflow modeling in clean rooms, iso suites, sterile rooms and medical rooms.
TECHNICAL PRINCIPLE
High purity fog basing on de-ionized water (demiwater) or water for injection (wfi) is generated by mixing hot water with liquid nitrogen using a unique mixing process. The generated ultrapure water fog is neutrally buoyant, non-contaminating and highly visible (pure paper white fog).
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
- Large and very large scale continious air flow visualization and/or mapping studies in clean rooms and on process tools according to ISO 14644-3 Annex B7
- Visualization of unwanted gas emission locations and dead zones
- Supports analysis for pharmaceutical UPS 797 guidelines and airflow visualization
- Supports NSF 49 national safety foundation and the future UPS 800 hazardous drug compounding for airflow visualization
- Supports airflow visualization test for semiconductor semi-standards guidelines
- Tracking routes of unwanted air flow infiltration into clean rooms
- Exhaust and ventilation studies around wafer handling systems
- Air balance studies in pharmaceutical suites and clean rooms
- Containment transport studies on process tools and complete process sections and lines
- Optimization of equipment locations in order to minimize containment transport to critical areas
- Finding unsuspected particulate and gaseous containment sources
- Tracking routes of air infiltration into cleanrooms
- Pressure balancing (rooms and spaces)
- Operators trainings
AP.32 BENEFITS
- Adjustable, ultra pure airflow visualization to describe direction, velocity and patterns in airflow
- Modular design for simple operation and maintenance
- Direct fogger control or remote control by wireless key fob to operate behind a closed wall or closed area
- No contamination created, no contamination left behind
- No cleanup of any kind after fog visualization
- Superb 3d airflow modeling capabilities with high density fog
- Very low fog exit pressure, no exit turbulence as fog enters airflow
- Compact, transportable, shipping case
- Fog stream output and fog rake output
- For use in sterile rooms, iso suites and clean rooms
- High unmatched volume and density of fog provides the best airflow visualization of any fogger in the market
