Cleanrooms must be continuously monitored to ensure both worker safety and product quality. CHROMATOTEC’s airmoVOC and airmo C10-C18 analyzers can detect trace levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), thereby reducing the need for costly laboratory analyses. Effective VOC monitoring is critical to maintaining uninterrupted production processes, minimizing financial losses, and upholding manufacturing standards.

Overview
In cleanroom environments, sustaining high air quality is essential for protecting personnel and ensuring product integrity. Cleanrooms are engineered to strictly control particulate levels and airborne contaminants, preventing the ingress, generation, and accumulation of dust. This is particularly vital in high-precision industries such as semiconductor manufacturing and pharmaceuticals. Consequently, continuous monitoring of air quality indices is indispensable to guarantee that the work environment remains compliant and production processes are not adversely affected.
Reecotech offers advanced automated gas chromatography solutions that provide continuous and accurate monitoring of cleanroom air quality, with the following key features:
- Simultaneous Monitoring of Multiple Cleanrooms: Utilizing a 6-stream multiplexer technology along with Vistachrom monitoring software, Reecotech can concurrently monitor the air quality in up to six different cleanrooms. This system enables real-time assessment across various spaces, reducing manual intervention and saving time. It continuously measures VOC concentrations at extremely low levels (from ppb to ppt) from air samples drawn within the cleanroom, ensuring that the environment consistently meets high-quality standards.
- Continuous VOC Monitoring: Reecotech’s automated gas chromatography instruments, such as airmoVOC and airmo C10-C18, are specifically designed to monitor VOC concentrations within cleanrooms. This continuous monitoring allows for the prompt detection of any changes in VOC levels, especially when they exceed safety thresholds. Unlike traditional manual sampling and subsequent laboratory analysis, this automated system not only reduces costs but also enhances accuracy and the timeliness of incident detection.
- Process Gas Monitoring: Beyond cleanroom air monitoring, the system is capable of overseeing process gases used in production to ensure they do not compromise product quality. Reecotech’s gas analyzers monitor these gases continuously, ensuring that production conditions remain stable and meet stringent quality requirements.
By significantly reducing costs compared to manual sampling and laboratory analysis, the automated gas monitoring system enhances both the accuracy and promptness of air quality assessments. Early detection of any anomalies in gas concentrations supports enterprises in taking timely measures to maintain safe and efficient production.
