Make airflows visible, understand them better, and evaluate them more reliably.Airflow Visualization in Cleanrooms
Choose the right approach for visualizing airflow in your cleanroom
Airflow affects product protection, process stability, and regulatory compliance in virtually every cleanroom environment. Modern airflow visualization makes these flows visible and supports operators, designers, and quality assurance personnel in validation, optimization, and documentation.
Depending on the objective, different methods are used. With FlowBOS and Flow-TRX, LaVision offers two specialized systems for different requirements in cleanroom qualification and airflow analysis.
Two systems with different approaches.
FlowBOS
Smoke-Free Airflow Visualization
FlowBOS visualizes airflow without smoke, particles, or additional tracer media. The system uses Background Oriented Schlieren (BOS) technology to make air movements directly visible.
Particularly suitable for:
- Cleanrooms During Operation
- Aseptic Production Areas
- Isolators and RABS
- Contamination-sensitive environments
- Optimization of Airflow Designs
Flow-TRX
Advanced Computer-Aided Visualization of Smoke Tests
Flow-TRX supports the standardized visualization and documentation of traditional smoke studies. The system generates vector fields, flow directions, and flow velocity based on the determined vector dynamics, thereby enabling a transparent evaluation of complex airflows—in real time.
Particularly suitable for:
- Smoke Studies
- Cleanroom Qualification
- Airflow Pattern Tests
- GMP Documentation
- Standardized Reporting
Which system is right for your application?
FlowBOS | Flow-TRX |
|---|---|
Making Airflow Visible | Analyze existing smoke studies |
No smoke or particles | Using a classic smoke test |
Production-Related Studies | Qualification and Documentation Processes |
Areas Sensitive to Contamination | Regulatory Documentation |
Visualizing and Understanding Airflow | Analyze and document airflow |
Cleanroom operations should be affected as little as possible | Standardized Smoke Test Evaluation |
Support for the Next Generation of Cleanroom Validation
Cleanroom qualification is constantly evolving. In addition to compliance with regulatory requirements, an understanding of processes, the quality of documentation, and a solid basis for decision-making are becoming increasingly important.
Modern airflow visualization supports this shift. While FlowBOS opens up new possibilities for particle-free flow visualization, Flow-TRX provides additional transparency in the standardized evaluation and documentation of smoke studies.
Together, these two innovative systems support modern, data-driven, and future-oriented cleanroom qualification.
