FAQ - Frequently asked questions
Maintenance intervals and filter replacement
For optimum operational safety, we recommend visually inspecting the HEPA filters at least every 6 months. Depending on usage and operating environment, it is advisable to replace the filter elements after 6 to 12 months.
Selecting the right size
The Laminar Flow Box is available in five different widths - from compact systems for individual workstations to large-scale systems for extensive work areas. The optimal variant depends on the space requirements of the processes and the respective integration situation.
Support and services
Spetec offers a comprehensive package: in addition to regular maintenance and qualification checks, customers receive support with particle monitoring, leak tests and complete cleanroom validation.
Individual customisation and retrofitting
The modular design of the EFBS-V series allows for flexible customisation, so that various additional modules, special equipment and filter stages can be integrated. Retrofitting and upgrades can be carried out at any time.
Use with flammable or toxic substances
The EFBS-V series provides effective protection against airborne particles and biological agents. However, when working with highly flammable or highly toxic substances, the product-specific safety data sheets and the requirements of EN 12469:2000 must always be observed.
Concluding remarks
With its high-quality workmanship, multi-certified safety, user-oriented ease of maintenance and flexible range of equipment, the EFBS-V series is the ideal cleanroom solution for the most demanding tasks in research, development and industry. The comprehensive services and full compliance with international cleanroom standards make it a future-proof investment for all sensitive production and laboratory processes.
