Electrical Distribution
Electrical Systems are divided into 600/480 3 Phase higher Voltage systems, for Process and HVAC and Air Handling Systems.
120/208 Single and 3 Phase Power is supplied by a transformer from the higher voltage system, and is distributed by breaker panels. On smaller Cleanrooms we recommend that these be installed in your Change room.
Lighting
Lighting is designed to provide an illumination level based on the use of the space.
Typical lighting levels in Foot Candles are:
- Cleanrooms & Support Areas – 65
- Office Areas – 55
- Storage Rooms, Central Plant, Exit Corridors & Mechanical/Electrical Support Areas – 35
- Exit lights are required by the building code to assist in personnel in finding their way out of the Cleanroom, in case of an emergency exit requirement. These fixtures require illumination in a power outage, and may include emergency lighting.
Generator / UPS
Some Process requirements may require the installation of a Generator to provide power in the case of a disruption, & / Or an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) if the requirement is for no delay.
