BioSafe® Wall Liner Panels; 4' x 8', uPVC-Laminated Steel Walls, 0.25" Thick

Facility managers who need classified cleanroom space generally face a difficult choice.

New construction requires a suitable site and can take months, even years, to complete. Depending on area requirements, installing a modular cleanroom inside an existing room is a faster, more economical alternative, but this room-within-a-room approach often creates unusable or inaccessible space.

Terra’s BioSafe Cleanroom Conversion System offers a more economical, space-efficient approach: converting an existing unclassified room into a cleanroom, using modular components to meet a wide range of environmental and access requirements.

Modular Ceiling Grid

This modular structure mounts directly to existing walls to form a drop ceiling, or rests on top of walls that have no ceiling. Its all-steel, interlocking design requires no external bracing (either column support or suspension cables) for spans up to 20 ft. (6096 mm). Larger spans entail a single internal support column or external ceiling support cable.

The grid's 2-foot x 4-foot (610 x 1220 mm) ceiling bays support cleanroom ceiling components: room-side replaceable HEPA fan/filter units (FFUs), LED or fluorescent lights, and polypropylene ceiling panels.

Terra’s WhisperFlow™ Room-Side Replaceable FFUs provide the vertical flow of micro-filtered air that removes contaminants inside the room. By selecting the proper quantity of FFUs, you can meet any cleanliness classification to ISO 5 (Class 100). Their design allows filter replacement from inside the cleanroom, without breaching the cleanroom ceiling. Lights and blank ceiling panels complete the ceiling structure. See additional information below.

BioSafe® Cleanroom Wall Systems

Our Class A fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) panel system is the only one that is certified for use in ISO 5 cleanrooms. Applied with a non-outgassing polymer adhesive to nearly any wall surface, including gypsum wallboard, this material features a patented finish that creates a durable, noncontaminating surface that is highly resistant to chemicals and microbial growth. More economical Class C panel are available (see ordering information).

CPVC (chlorinated polyvinyl chloride) Class A wall panels also meet ISO 5 requirements. A solvent-free, non-outgassing adhesive adheres them to walls. Seams are welded to close all gaps and make this system a great choice for converting current building space into a cleanroom. CPVC resists damage from a broad range of chemicals, making clean-up faster and easier.

The links below provide more information on these and other components that comprise this system, including cleanroom doors, pass-through chambers, and flooring. Installation of smooth Class A BioSafe panels, with proper wall and ceiling coving, meets stringent ISO 5-6 and cGMP requirements for the most critical applications, including sterile processing. For less critical cleanroom requirements, consider FRP Class C panels.
