Airlock system

SCHILLING ENGINEERING’s airlock equipment is designed individually for each customer. Factors such as the cleanroom class, the available space and the number of personnel to be inducted per shift must be taken into account. Other factors that play a role in the planning of the airlock equipment are cleanability and, to a certain extent, the design. A personnel airlock can only be optimally planned and ultimately used efficiently and conveniently if all of the above points are taken into account. We will be happy to assist you with the planning of your interlock system.
An airlock is an enclosed area that connects two or more rooms with different cleanliness classes. It is used to control the flow of air between the rooms and prevent particles, germs or other contaminants from entering one room into another. To fulfill this function, an airlock requires special equipment and accessories that meet the high hygiene and safety requirements at Cleanroom. The furnishings of a personnel airlock are made of high-quality materials, such as coated or covered duplex panels or solid core. The surfaces are smooth and easy to clean. Fixed components of a personnel airlock are usually sit-over benches, lockers and shelves. These serve to make the changing process as efficient and pleasant as possible. The equipment and accessories of an airlock are therefore essential components of a functioning cleanroom system. They ensure that the Cleanroom maintains its high quality and performance and that the products or processes in the Cleanroom are not impaired by contamination.

The purpose of an airlock is to provide contamination-free access to sensitive cleanrooms. To fulfill this function, depending on the cleanroom class, an airlock requires special equipment and accessories that meet the high hygiene and safety requirements at Cleanroom.

The equipment of an interlock depends on the needs of our customers.

The furnishings of a personnel airlock are made of high-quality materials, such as coated or covered duplex panels or solid core panels. The surfaces are smooth and easy to clean.

The difference between ISO and GMP airlock equipment is often not apparent at first glance. As more aggressive cleaning agents are often used in the GMP area, the airlock device must have a corresponding resistance. This resistance is not absolutely necessary in the ISO area, which is why cheaper materials are often used here.

A personnel airlock is an airlock that is used to transport people between different cleanliness classes. A personnel airlock prevents particles, germs or other contaminants from moving from one room to another. In order to fulfill this function, a personnel airlock requires special airlock equipment that meets the high hygiene and safety requirements at Cleanroom.

The interlock furniture is the furniture installed in the interlock to support people entering or leaving Cleanroom. The interlock furniture is made of high-quality materials, such as stainless steel or aluminum. The surfaces are smooth and easy to clean. The interlock furniture is self-supporting and can be linked together.

The basic interlock furniture for a personnel interlock includes

  • Sit-over bench: A sit-over bench is a piece of furniture that is used to change shoes before entering or leaving Cleanroom. The sit-over bench often consists of a bench with an integrated shoe compartment. The bench provides a comfortable seat for putting on and taking off shoes. The shoe compartment provides a safe place to store shoes. The sit-over bench prevents dirt or particles from the shoes from entering the Cleanroom.
  • CleanroomAdhesive mat: An adhesive mat in a cleanroom airlock is used to remove dirt and particles from shoe soles and transportation equipment before entering Cleanroom. This reduces the risk of contamination, increases cleanroom integrity and provides a cost-effective method of particle control directly at the entrance.
  • Wardrobe: A wardrobe is used to hang up clothes before entering or leaving Cleanroom. The wardrobe is made of a material suitable for cleanrooms and offers enough space for several items of clothing. They can also be used to store utensils.
  • Mirror: A mirror is used to check the fit of the cleanroom garments during induction.

This type of airlock device is therefore essential for a personnel airlock, as they support people as they move between different cleanliness classes. They ensure that the Cleanroom maintains its high quality and performance and that the products or processes in the Cleanroom are not impaired by contamination.

The interlock equipment from SCHILLING ENGINEERING is perfectly suited for use in personnel interlocks, as it meets the high requirements for hygiene, safety and quality.

They meet the requirements of ISO and GMP, among other things due to the easy cleanability of the smooth surfaces. The interlock furniture is also resistant to chemicals and has a high load-bearing capacity. An antimicrobial coating prevents the growth of bacteria or fungi and thus reduces the risk of contamination. Furthermore, the airlock furniture meets the requirements for use in food areas and is therefore food-safe.
