cleanrooms maintain particulate-free air through the use of either hepa or ulpa filters employing laminar or turbulent air flow principles. laminar, or unidirectional, air flow systems direct filtered air downward or in horizontal direction in a constant stream towards filters located on walls near the cleanroom floor or through raised perforated floor panels to be recirculated. laminar air flow systems are typically employed across 80% of a cleanroom ceiling to maintain constant air processing. stainless steel or other non shedding materials are used to construct laminar air flow filters and hoods to prevent excess particles entering the air. turbulent, or non unidirectional, air flow uses both laminar air flow hoods and nonspecific velocity filters to keep air in a cleanroom in constant motion, although not all in the same direction. the rough air seeks to trap particles that may be in the air and drive them towards the floor, where they enter filters and leave the cleanroom environment. us fda and eu have laid down guidelines and limit for microbial contamination which is very stringent to ensure freedom from microbial contamination in pharmaceutical products. plenums between air handlers and fan filter units may also be used.
