FAQ – Technical cleanliness

What is a particle cleanliness analysis?

Cleanliness analysis refers to the process of assessing and quantifying the level of cleanliness or contamination present on a surface, in a fluid, or within a system. Cleanliness analysis is particularly important in industries where cleanliness standards are critical, such as pharmaceuticals, electronics manufacturing, aerospace, automotive and food processing. Cleanliness analysis involves various techniques and methods. Particle counting is the most common cleanliness analysis technique involving the quantification and characterization of particulate contaminants  present in a fluid thanks to microscopic analysis. Gravimetry is also a cleanliness analysis and involves measuring the weight of contaminants collected on a filter or surface to determine the level of cleanliness. Overall, cleanliness analysis plays a crucial role in ensuring product quality, reliability, and safety accross various industries.

What technical cleanliness matter represents for manufacturer?

Technical cleanliness refers to the degree of cleanliness or the absence of particles in components, systems or fluids within technical applications. Technical cleanliness standards are established to ensure that components and systems meet specific cleanliness requirements to maintain their functionality, reliability, and performance. Contaminants such as particulates can adversely affect the performance and lifespan of mechanical components, electronic circuits, hydraulic systems, and other technical systems. Achieving and maintaining technical cleanliness often involves implementing rigorous cleaning processes, using appropriate cleaning agents and equipment, establishing cleanliness specifications and standards, and implementing quality control measures throughout the manufacturing and assembly processes.
