How the Automatic Control System Enables Clean Rooms to Operate More Efficiently, Intelligently and Automatically
2024.11.29
In the current era of rapid technological development, the requirements for the production environment in various industries have become increasingly stringent. As a crucial "battleground" in fields such as electronic chip manufacturing, biomedical research and development, and high-end precision instrument production, the efficient, intelligent and automatic operation of clean rooms has already become a core element for enterprises to enhance their competitiveness and ensure product quality. Among them, the automatic control system is like a "super butler behind the scenes", endowing clean rooms with unparalleled operational advantages by virtue of its outstanding "coordination" and "precise control" capabilities. Today, Guangzhou Kunling Purification Equipment Co., Ltd. will talk with you about the know-how in this regard.

Precise Environmental Control: Keeping Temperature, Humidity and Air Pressure Stable
In a clean room, even the slightest fluctuation in temperature and humidity or a slight imbalance in air pressure can cause sensitive electronic components to "malfunction" or lead to significant errors in biomedical experiments. The automatic control system is like a sensitive "sensor". With the help of temperature and humidity sensors and air pressure probes distributed throughout the room, it collects data in real time and is constantly "observant". Once the values deviate from the preset standards, for example, when the temperature in an electronic chip clean room exceeds the range of 22°C ± 2°C, the system will immediately instruct the air-conditioning units and humidification and dehumidification equipment to "go full throttle" for adjustment. The intelligent algorithm optimizes the adjustment amount "predictively" based on past operating data, avoiding excessive corrections. It can also flexibly switch modes according to production requirements at different times. For example, during the day when production is at a high load, it strengthens cooling and heating, and at night when the power consumption is low, it maintains the basic temperature and humidity. In terms of air pressure, it precisely controls the positive pressure gradient in each area, ensuring that air flows orderly from high-cleanliness areas to low-cleanliness areas, preventing external pollution from "taking advantage of loopholes", and laying a solid foundation for production with a stable environment.
Intelligent Collaboration of Purification Equipment: Perfect Dust Filtration and Sterilization
Purification facilities such as high-efficiency particulate air filters (HEPA), ultraviolet germicidal lamps, and air shower rooms are the backbone of the "purification defense line" in clean rooms. The automatic control system acts as a "command center", uniformly dispatching them to work together efficiently. Based on the data from indoor dust particle counters and microorganism detection, the system intelligently judges the requirements for the purification level. When the dust concentration rises, it automatically increases the fan frequency of the HEPA filter and switches to higher-level filter screens as needed. The ultraviolet germicidal lamps are turned on according to the preset cycle and intensity, and their duration is flexibly adjusted according to the entry and exit of personnel and materials. They automatically avoid people when they are present and ensure seamless disinfection of materials. The air shower room better understands the rhythm of personnel flow. During peak hours, it extends the operation time and increases the wind force to ensure that the dust and bacteria on the clothes of every person entering or exiting are "swept away". Under the coordination of the automatic control system, the purification equipment forms a dynamic and strict purification closed loop, continuously safeguarding the clean "pure land" indoors.
Energy Management with Prudence: Achieving Cost Reduction and Efficiency Improvement Just Right
The energy consumption of clean rooms is often a "heavy burden" on enterprises, and the automatic control system transforms into an "energy-saving master" to solve this problem ingeniously. It integrates the electricity consumption data of lighting, air-conditioning, ventilation and other equipment, analyzes the "energy consumption profiles" in different periods and areas, and accurately identifies the major energy-consuming areas and areas of "idle waste". Through intelligent time-sharing and zone control, it ensures sufficient power supply in busy production areas, and automatically dims the lighting and reduces the air-conditioning load in non-critical areas. It also introduces frequency conversion technology to enable fans and pumps to adjust their speeds flexibly according to the actual working conditions, avoiding high-energy-consuming operations like "using a sledgehammer to crack a nut". Without affecting the cleanliness effect, it can reduce energy expenses by 20% - 30%, helping enterprises "travel light" and improve their benefits.
Fault Early Warning for Preparedness: Preventive Maintenance and Support
If equipment failures suddenly occur in clean rooms, the losses caused by production stoppages and maintenance can be severe. The automatic control system is like a vigilant "lookout", continuously monitoring the status of key parts such as purification equipment, electrical circuits, and ventilation ducts 24 hours a day. With the help of vibration sensors, current monitors, and pressure transmitters, it captures the slightest abnormal "signals" of equipment, such as increased vibration of fan bearings and sudden increases in motor current. Based on big data analysis and built-in fault models, the system issues warnings several hours or even days in advance and pushes detailed fault diagnosis reports to the mobile phones of maintenance personnel. It is also linked to the spare parts warehouse, intelligently taking inventory of stocks, recommending replacement parts, and guiding the maintenance process, shortening the fault repair time from the traditional "passive response taking several days" to the shortest, ensuring that the operation of clean rooms "keeps running smoothly".
Remote Control with Mastery: Convenient Operation at Your Fingertips
In today's fast-paced industrial environment, managers need to have a broad view. The automatic control system is equipped with a convenient remote control platform that can be accessed via web browsers or mobile apps. Whether in the office, on a business trip or at home, managers can simply tap on the screen to view real-time key information such as the temperature and humidity curves of clean rooms, the operating status of equipment, and energy consumption reports. They can also remotely issue instructions to make emergency adjustments to environmental parameters and start equipment maintenance processes, breaking the limitations of time and space and achieving "zero-distance" control of clean rooms, making management decisions more efficient and accurate, and giving a boost to enterprise operations.
The automatic control system is like the "intelligent brain" of clean rooms. From environmental control to equipment collaboration, from energy conservation to fault prevention, it unlocks the secrets of efficient, intelligent and automatic operation in all aspects. Guangzhou Kunling Purification Equipment Co., Ltd. has been deeply engaged in the industry for many years.
