A cleanroom air shower is designed to serve as a gateway controller between the clean production space and the outside world. Generally installed as entry systems, they reduce contamination by minimizing the entry and exit of particulate matter in controlled laboratory environments like cleanrooms. Although coveralls and protective gear along with strict regulatory guidelines are employed to prevent the entry of outside contaminants, sometimes, it isn’t enough. A hint of debris or lint can compromise
