Most common control areas are hospital operating rooms & manufacturer clean rooms.

¿What is a Clean Room?

A clean-room  is any given contained space where provisions are made to reduce particulate contamination and control other environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity and pressure. The key component is the High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter that is used to trap particles that are 0.3 micron and larger in size. All of the air delivered to a clean-room  passes through HEPA filters, and in some cases where stringent leanliness performance is necessary, Ultra Low Particulate Air (ULPA) filters are used. 

Typically used in manufacturing or scientific research, a clean-room is a controlled environment that has a low level of pollutants such as dust, airborne microbes, aerosol particles, and chemical vapors. To be exact, a clean-room has a controlled level of contamination that is specified by the number of particles per cubic meter at a specified particle size. The ambient air outside in a typical city environment contains 35,000,000 particles per cubic meter, 0.5 micron and larger in diameter, corresponding to an ISO 9 clean-room which is at the lowest level of clean-room standards.

Clean-rooms are used in practically every industry where small particles can adversely affect the manufacturing process. They vary in size and complexity, and are used extensively in industries such as semiconductor manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, biotech, medical device and life sciences, as well as critical process manufacturing common in aerospace, optics, military and Department of Energy.

¿What is a Operating Room?

An operating room is a facility within a hospital where surgical operations are carried out in a sterile environment. They are generally windowless and feature controlled temperature and humidity. These rooms are controlled areas due to risk of contamination. When a surgery takes place the room must be non-contaminated and must meet high cleaning standards of disinfection and sterilization.
