The CleanBoy® Plus has been tested by the Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Engineering and Automation (IPA) and has been certified as a clean room grade B medical device. This means that, according to the Annex “Biocontamination” of the GMP Guidelines, there should be no evidence of more than 5 CFU (colony forming units) on settle plates with a diameter of 90 mm at any point within the clean room workbench after 4 hours of operation. The “innards” of the CleanBoy® Plus are the same as those of the standard CleanBoy® range from Spetec GmbH: The main feature: All components of the housing are made from stainless steel. All corners and edges have been rounded to facilitate cleaning of the surfaces of the unit. All joints have been sealed to offer no potential bacterial breeding ground. All the materials used are resistant to commonly used disinfectants and cleaning agents. At the heart of the clean-room workbench lies Spetec GmbH’s tried and tested filter technology. The unit features an HEPA H 14 high-performance filter. This has a filtration efficiency of 99.995 %, meaning that the filter captures at least 99.995 % (99.9995 %) of all particles of a size of 0.12 µm (0.3 µm). Thanks to the use of the H 14 filter, the Spetec CleanBoy® Plus has an isolation factor of 10000. This means that the air quality in the work area is at least 10000 times better than that of the ambient air. One important effect of the filtered clean-room atmosphere is that the microbial count in the working space is also reduced dramatically. This means that conditions within the working area of the workbench are virtually sterile.
