In our changing and developing world, population and economic changes cause drastic changes in the pharmaceutical industry.
In this process, Air Filtration has a very important place and in the production and test environments of pharmaceuticals, standards that meet the requirement of clean, purified air have been formed.
These standards are: EN799: 2012 and EN1820: 2009.
EN799: 2012
The standard used to determine the particle capture performance of the filters used in general ventilation systems.
According to this standard, filters are divided into 3 groups: Coarse, Medium and Fine filters.
Specifies the specific dust capture efficiency limits for each filter.
EN1822: 2009
The filter standard meets the highest level of air cleaning requirements.
According to standard conditions, pharmaceutical processes should have high efficiency particulate air filters as clean room filters.
According to this standard, the filters are divided into 3 groups: EPA, HEPA, ULPA filters.
