APT Sound Testing offer a wide range of testing services to meet the needs of our clients across all cleanroom industries from automotive to Nano Production. For every test we will issue a comprehensive test report. This will include the fume cupboard identification number, the date of the test, the type of test that has been carried out, the general room conditions at the time of the test, the results of our inspection and of the performance test, and any remedial actions that were needed or are required to meet the required standards.
The type of Fume Cupboard Testing may include:
Containment testing using tracer gas
We provide a quantitative measure of fume cupboard containment under normal working conditions. We undertake containment testing using tracer gas analyses the escape routes of sulphur hexafluoride (the gas tracer) from within the fume cupboard. This type of testing is particularly recommended for newly installed equipment and following any major repairs as its highlights any weaknesses in the fume cupboard envelope.
Face velocity measurements
We measuring the average rate at which air is drawn through the opening of the fume cupboard, face velocity measurements are the conventional method for measuring fume cupboard performance. This does not measure the containment ability of the fume cupboard which is undertaken using tracer gas.
