Cleanrooms are one of the most strictly regulated critical environments that require continuous monitoring. The most common cleanrooms are in compounding pharmacies, medical device manufacturers, and biotechnology facilities, as they need to guarantee the safety of their products for patients. However, a variety of other applications utilize cleanrooms to ensure accuracy, such as clinical research spaces, semiconductor manufacturers, and aerospace manufacturers.
A combination of sensor hardware and environmental monitoring software help continuously monitor these spaces and ensure the quality of the products manufactured. Setra’s Continuous Environmental Monitoring System (CEMS) is an environmental monitoring software that collects data in real-time from room measurement sensors to track trends and provide alerts.
