Description

USA Lab Portable Clean Room (PCR) | ISO Class 5 Laminar Flow Hood

The USA Lab Portable Clean Room (PCR) is a positive-pressure system that delivers exceptionally clean laminar airflow inside the hood for controlled, low-particulate work. Made in the USA, PCR units provide a reliable, low-maintenance clean environment for medical, laboratory, and field applications without the cost and complexity of ductwork or makeup air.

This portable cleanroom platform uses a dual-stage filtration process (single-stage for Generation II) with a MERV 8 pre-filter and a HEPA filter rated up to 99.97% efficiency at 0.3 micrometers. For higher efficiency needs, an ULPA option is available rated up to 99.9995% at 0.12 micrometers.

Generation I

The original Portable Cleanroom – Generation I offers a simple ON/OFF operation and provides dependable and effective protection for your application. This economical unit helps your facility implement a cleanroom environment without a large investment.

Generation II

This upgraded version, Generation II, offers improved functions, design, and fan system. The front-facing variable speed controller allows the operator to easily adjust the fan speeds to suit their application. The running indicator light informs the user that the system is running. The improved design and fan system have increased the airflow and enhanced the system’s efficiency. Also, this new design allows operators to PAO test to check the filter for leaks and approve the device for certifications such as USP 797.

What is the Classification of a Portable Cleanroom?

Cleanroom classifications are defined simply by how clean the air in the room is. Federal Standard (FS) 209 (A - E) classifies a cleanroom as dependent on the number of particles in a working environment's air. More accurately, 'Cleanroom classification standards FS 209E and ISO 14644-1' require a particle count measurement and calculation in order to fully classify the "cleanliness" of an environment.

FAQ

What is the USA Lab Portable Clean Room (PCR)?

The USA Lab Portable Clean Room (PCR) is a positive-pressure laminar airflow hood that helps create a controlled, low-particulate working area up to ISO Class 5. The USA Lab Portable Clean Room is designed for portable, modular deployment without ductwork or makeup air.

What filtration does the USA Lab Portable Clean Room use?

The USA Lab Portable Clean Room uses a dual-stage filtration process (single-stage for Generation II/PCR2) with a MERV 8 pre-filter and a HEPA filter rated up to 99.97% at 0.3 micrometers. For higher efficiency needs, the USA Lab Portable Clean Room supports an ULPA option rated up to 99.9995% at 0.12 micrometers (see item 31516 for compatible PCR filters).

What’s the difference between Generation I and Generation II (PCR2) Portable Clean Rooms?

The USA Lab Portable Clean Room Generation I is an economical design with simple ON/OFF operation and optional configurations such as IV Hood or UVC Hood. The USA Lab Portable Clean Room Generation II (PCR2) is an upgraded platform with improved design and fan system, a front-facing variable speed controller, a running indicator light, and support for PAO testing to help verify filter integrity for certifications such as USP 797.

Is the USA Lab Portable Clean Room intended for sterile compounding or chemotherapy?

No. The USA Lab Portable Clean Room is not intended for sterile compounding applications or chemotherapy. If your process requires sterile compounding compliance, use equipment specifically designed and certified for sterile environments.
