Clean Room Pneumatic Tube Delivery

Product catalog summary
Introduction
Pneumatic tube systems offer a solution for delivering samples or small items to clean rooms in processing plants, addressing issues related to infection control and time-consuming manual transport.

System Overview
The document describes a single zone pneumatic tube system with stations in non-sterile areas that send samples to clean rooms. The system maintains clean room integrity by preventing air exchange between the plant and clean room environments.

System Design
Two design options are presented: a simple system that avoids air exchange with the clean room, and a fully enclosed clean air system with through-type stations. Both designs ensure that plant air remains contained within the system.

Titan Station
The Titan Station features a unique rotating design that maintains air containment. It allows carriers to pass through using pressure or suction, and dispatches them using gravity without air exchange.

System Options
Popular systems include the computer-controlled AC3000 with tube diameters of 110 or 160mm. Carriers range from 50mm to 315mm, chosen based on package size. Systems can range from simple control panels to advanced software with diagnostics and tracking capabilities.

Conclusion
Aerocom offers customized solutions for streamlining sample delivery to clean rooms, providing free surveys and advice to optimize business efficiency.

Clean Room Pneumatic Tube Delivery-1

Clean Room Pneumatic Tube Delivery EWS STATION' ■POWER PACK lLEAN ROOM CLEAN RDDM Delivering samples or other small items by foot to a clean room in a processing plant poses several problems with infection control protocols and can also be a time consuming, repetitive walk to and from the sampling area to the sterile area crossing infection control borders. Using a pneumatic air tube system can eliminate the repeated task and deliver the samples or other articles without compromising the sterile clean room integrity. How? you may ask, can a pressurised air tube system do this? The diagram above shows a single zone pneumatic tube system with three stations in the non-sterile production areas, which send samples to both clean rooms. The blower is located in a plant room. We can either use a very simple system that neither expels air into nor uses air from, the clean room; both of which could affect the positive pressurisation of the clean module. Carriers are delivered on gravity from the unique mechanism of the Titan or Giga station installed in the clean room. Plant air is contained within the pneumatic tube system at all times. The positive pressure of the clean room prevents any residual plant air leakage when the carrier is delivered on gravity or loaded into the clean room station. Alternatively, we can design a fully enclosed clean air system with through type stations only and tubed in clean air. Other variations are available including fine filtering air. Every Clean Room pneumatic tube delivery system is designed specifically for the application

Clean Room Pneumatic Tube Delivery-2

Titan Station The unique rotating design of the Titan Station is ideal for clean room application as the tube is continued through the mechanism therefore air is contained. In the resting position, the connecting tube (blue) allows carriers to pass through the station contained on either pressure or suction. In the braking position, the holding tube (green) holds the carrier inside the cup end on suction only and revolves the barrel to the despatch position. Despatch either from the holding tube on delivery or from the insertion funnel on sending is air free gravity. Available Systems, Tube Size,...
