Introduction
An Air Shower is an essential supporting equipment for biological cleanrooms and clean workshops, designed to remove surface dust and particulate contaminants from personnel and their belongings before entry into controlled areas. By using high-speed HEPA-filtered air, air showers act as an air brake, preventing unpurified air from entering clean spaces and ensuring strict cleanliness standards are maintained.
Air showers are widely used in micro-electronics, hospitals, pharmaceutical manufacturing, biochemical labs, food safety units, fine chemical engineering, precision mechanics, and scientific research institutes, including aviation and aerospace facilities.
How Does an Air Shower Work?
Personnel enter the air shower chamber
Photoelectric sensors automatically activate high-velocity airflow
HEPA-filtered air jets blow off dust particles from clothing and exposed surfaces
Contaminants are captured by the filtration system and prevented from entering clean areas
