H-Y TUMBLE DRUM®

In the Institute of Environmental Sciences and Technology document, “Garment System Considerations for Cleanrooms and Other Controlled Environments IEST-RP-CC003.2” the H-Y Tumble Drum is recommended for testing garments, wipers, gloves, and other cleanroom ready products.

The H-Y Tumble Drum tumbles items in a rotating drum to release particles from the surface of the item. It is designed to be connected to an automatic particle counter in order to sample the air within the drum to determine the average particle concentration of the air. Results depict the level of contamination the product will emit to the cleanroom environment per minute.
