Aerosol Exposure Program

Low Velocity Environmental Test Facility

The low velocity Environmental Test Facility permits particle emissions studies from indoor sources such as vacuum cleaners and walking on soiled carpeting (house dust re-suspension). Particle emission rates and size distributions are determined in a controlled-velocity air stream that has been pre-cleaned using HEPA filters. This facility is also used for measuring particle shedding from cleanroom products.
