CONTAMINANTS: SOURCES OF CONTAMINATION |
|
Recent studies suggest that with the use of improved methods, training,
and design, the percentage of contaminants from personnel can be driven
down to the 5 - 10% range.
Unfortunately, even this good news has had
some unintended consequences, as some workers become complacent about
their cleanroom entry protocols.
As a result, personnel wearing particle-shedding products (which we’ll
discuss later in the course), may be driving the contamination rates
from personnel back up to 35% range, and even beyond.
