Understand & Mitigate Variability in Aerosol Particle Counter Applications
Establishing and maintaining cleanroom performance of aerosol particles in a cleanroom often requires the use of multiple aerosol particle counters with varying design parameters and display settings. Commonly, cleanroom personnel use multiple aerosol particle counters (as defined in ISO 14644-1) to report an array of airborne particle counts. This paper is a summary of the basic methods cleanroom personnel may use to ensure that the data that is reported by different aerosol particle counters can be compared effectively.
