What is Air Shower LMASH-A102?

Air Shower LMASH-A102 is a cleanroom entry system that removes particulate and microbial contamination from personnel and materials using high-velocity HEPA-filtered air jets before they enter controlled environments such as laboratories, pharmaceutical production areas, and healthcare cleanrooms.

What Is an Air Shower Used For in Cleanrooms?

Air showers are used to reduce contamination transfer at cleanroom entry points by removing particles from surfaces before access is granted.

Typical uses include:

• Personnel decontamination before entering sterile zones

• Material cleaning for carts, tools, and equipment

• Contamination control in pharmaceutical and biotech facilities

• Cleanroom entry compliance in healthcare environments

• Preparation zones for environmental monitoring

How Does Air Shower LMASH-A102 Work?

Labmate LMASH-A102 operates by directing high-velocity HEPA-filtered air through multiple nozzles to dislodge particles from surfaces.

Step-by-step process:

1. Personnel or materials enter the chamber

2. Doors automatically lock to maintain isolation

3. HEPA-filtered air jets activate from multiple directions

4. Dislodged particles are captured through filtration

5. Cleaned air recirculates within the chamber

6. Exit door unlocks after cycle completion
