Cleanroom Chamber

CLO34 Cleanroom Chamber

CL Series Overview

The CL series chambers are used for a variety of research applications. These units are specifically made for a cleanroom environment. The CL series cleanroom chambers include heating and cooling capabilities. These units have lower temperature capabilities than our thermoelectrically cooled units, have associated greater heat removal capabilities, and are ideal for locations where the ambient conditions cannot be controlled very well. These units will also outperform our thermoelectric units where specifications call for fast “open door” recovery times.

CL034

The CL034 is a single-door chamber designed for maximum capacity while still allowing passage through most commercial doorways.

Cabinet Construction
  • Standard model features grade 304 stainless steel 18-gauge, #4 finish
Doors
  • Fully welded and sealed door with magnetic gaskets. Has a heavy-duty grade 304 stainless steel latch that ensures secure closure after door opening
Insulation
  • Entire cabinet structure and doors insulated using minimum 2” non-cfc- polyurethane insulation.
  • Insulation manufacturer utilizes CFC free blowing agent that has zero ODP.
Electrical
  • Unit completely pre-wired at factory, and ready for final connection to a 115/60/1 phase – 15 amp dedicated (recommended) outlet. Unit runs approx. 6RLA under test conditions.
  • A 9 ft cord with NEMA 5-15P plug is included.
  • A sole use circuit is recommended
Shelving
  • Unit also equipped with 3 grade 304 stainless steel shelves
  • Shelves capable of supporting up to 100 lbs of evenly distributed weight.
  • Full height shelf support pilasters, with double oblong holes on ½” centers. Pilasters made of the same material as cabinet interior. Four (4) chrome plated, stainless steel shelf clips to be included for each shelf.
Refrigeration System
  • Unsurpassed temperature control through continuous refrigeration bypass system
  • Refrigeration system factory balanced using CFC free 134A refrigerant
  • Top mounted air-cooled condensing unit
  • Factory pre-engineered capillary tube system with over-sized condenser and evaporator to reduce product pull down time and to consistently maintain interior cabinet temperature (non-adjustable capillary tube system superior to problematic expansion valve).
  • Evaporator- epoxy-coated at the time of manufacture to eliminate the potential of corrosion.

Features

CL Series

The CL series chamber includes heating capabilities and cooling capabilities. These units are specifically made for a clean room environment. They have lower temperature specifications than our thermoelectrically cooled units and have associated greater heat removal capabilities. These units will also outperform our thermoelectric units where specifications call for fast “open door” recovery times.

Performance

Darwin Chambers CL034 model comes standard with a temperature range of 4° C to 37° C with temperature control of ± 0.2° C and superior temperature uniformity of ± 1° C. Quick recovery via forced air plenum/ refrigeration system.

Control System

All CL series models come standard with a Fuji PXF4 (PID – Fuzzy Logic) controller providing a readout of actual and set-point values. This chamber comes with audible and visual alarms, remote monitoring and a numeric password protection. Chamber has cleanable solid front face with control panel section guarded by clean plastic enclosure.

Options

All CL series offer endless customized options. Common upgrades include more stainless steel shelving, various lighting options including LED, fluorescent, dimming options and microprocessor control of lights. More options include water cooled conditioning unit, door lock, heated glass door, chart recorder, and humidity control. Chamber controls can be turned around making it serviceable from non-clean room side. There is also the option to upgrade the controller.
