Air changes by cleanroom classification this table details the recommended air changes per hour for iso 14644 1 2015 cleanrooms and their associated gmp grade and federal standard.
Iso cleanroom standards air change rates.
The air changes per hour will vary in both rooms as described below.
To meet requirements of a clean room as defined by federal standard 209e and newer iso standards all clean rooms must not exceed a particulate count as specified in the air cleanliness class.
As of november 29th 2001 the federal standard 209e has been replaced with iso 14644 1.
This post addresses air change tables and calculations in iso 2 iso 3 iso 4 and iso 5 cleanrooms with unidirectional airflow.
This is one of the most common classes of cleanrooms.

By minimizing turbulence lower airflow may improve cleanliness.
Lower air change rates result in smaller fans which reduce both initial investment and construction cost.
Rate of air exchange is expressed as the number of air changes per unit of time and calculated by dividing the volume of air delivered in the unit of time by the volume of the cleanroom or clean zone.
Iso 7 zone 30 60 air changes per hour.
Fan power is proportional to the cube of air change rates or airflow.
As defined by iso 146144 4 standards.
Role and calculation of air changes per hour in clean room area determination of the air velocity in cfm and air changes per hour acph in pharmaceutical clean rooms and also know its requirements in different cleanroom classes like 100 1000 10000 100000.
