一、Laminar Flow Pass Box Operation Procedures and Standards

The proper operation of a laminar flow pass box is crucial for maintaining cleanroom environments. Standard operating procedures include:
  • Pre-use check of UV sterilization status
  • Verification of door interlock function
  • Surface disinfection of transferred items
  • Correct operation sequence: open one side door, place items and close, then retrieve from other side
  • Regular cleanliness testing
All operations must comply with GB 50073-2013 "Design Code for Cleanrooms" and other national standards.

二、How to Use a Laminar Flow Pass Box

Proper usage involves several key steps:
  1. Turn on power and run self-cleaning cycle
  2. Check pressure differential indicator status
  3. Disinfect item surfaces with alcohol wipes
  4. Open outer door, place items and close immediately
  5. Inner side operator waits for self-cleaning completion before opening inner door
  6. Perform internal cleaning after use

三、Primary Functions of Laminar Flow Pass Boxes

Laminar flow pass boxes serve three main functions:
  1. Clean Isolation: 
  2. Material Transfer: 
  3. Airflow Control: 
These functions are achieved through HEPA filtration and scientific airflow design.

四、Most Commonly Used Types of Laminar Flow Pass Boxes

The three main types are:
  1. Standard Type: 
  2. Self-Cleaning Type: 
  3. Sterilization Type: 
The standard type is most commonly used in cleanrooms.

五、Working Principle of Laminar Flow Pass Boxes

Laminar flow pass boxes operate on these principles:
  • Top-mounted HEPA filters create vertical laminar flow
  • Bottom return air ensures unidirectional airflow
  • Door interlock system prevents simultaneous opening
  • Pressure monitoring maintains correct airflow direction

六、National Standards for Laminar Flow Pass Boxes

In China, laminar flow pass boxes must comply with:
  • GB 50073-2013 "Design Code for Cleanrooms"
  • GB/T 16292-2010 "Test Method for Airborne Particles in Cleanrooms"
  • GB 50591-2010 "Code for Construction and Acceptance of Cleanrooms"
  • ISO 14644 Cleanroom Standards
