Clean Room Doors for Sterile Environments
Clean room doors control air flow, temperature, humidity, and pressure in environments that need to maintain sterile conditions.
Due to their reliance on complex, internal mechanisms such as interlocks, hermetic seals, and automatic sensors, clean room doors cannot function without a responsive and reliable service team. Inspections and maintenance catch minor issues before they lead to a breakdown and compromise the room’s integrity.
- Air Leaks. When operating a clean room, preserving air quality and pressure is one of the most critical challenges. Worn, cracked, loose, brittle, or compressed seals and gaskets allow unfiltered air to seep in, compromising the environment.
- Faulty Door Operator. Clean room doors are generally motorized, permitting authorized users to enter without touching the door’s surface or hardware. A malfunctioning sensor or motor may stop the door from closing fully, creating a security risk and opening the room to contamination.
- Misaligned Tracks or Frame. Doors often become misaligned with age, either due to heavy use or as a result of the building settling over time. Misaligned doors can’t create a firm seal, jeopardizing the room’s isolation from the rest of your operation.
- Hinges. Repeated opening and closings can strain your hinges, loosening the bolts and screws that hold them in place. Loose hinges are not only noisy, they also keep doors from remaining closed and secure.
- Impact Damage. Like all doors, clean room doors are susceptible to collisions from carts and equipment. While some dents are merely cosmetic, others can jeopardize the sterile conditions inside.
