Tisztatér

Tisztatér is a Hungarian term that translates to "clean room" or "sterile room" in English. It refers to a highly controlled environment with a low level of pollutants such as dust, airborne microbes, and aerosol particles. The air is filtered to remove contaminants, and the room is maintained under specific conditions regarding temperature, humidity, and pressure.

Clean rooms are essential in industries where even minuscule contamination can compromise product quality or research integrity. This includes semiconductor manufacturing, pharmaceutical production, biotechnology, and medical device assembly. In these fields, a tisztatér ensures that processes are carried out in an environment free from the interference of external particles.

The design and operation of a tisztatér are governed by strict standards, often categorized by ISO classifications that define the maximum number of particles allowed per cubic meter of air. These standards dictate the materials used for construction, the air filtration systems (like HEPA or ULPA filters), the airflow patterns, and the procedures for personnel entering and exiting the room. Personnel working in a tisztatér must wear specialized cleanroom suits, gloves, and masks to prevent shedding particles from their bodies. The objective is to maintain an ultra-clean atmosphere to protect sensitive processes and products from contamination.
