Overview
The Ultrasonic Fog Shower from PBSC, also known as a Fog Shower, Mist Shower, Ultrasonic Shower, Personnel Shower, Decontamination Shower, Misting Shower, Personnel Decontamination, Chemical Shower, and a Decon Shower, removes powder from an operative’s suit and is assessed by SafeBridge Consultants Inc. A decontamination shower cycle uses 5 to 10-micron water droplets to encapsulate API particles with minimal wetting through the operator’s PPE suit.
PBSC specialises in high-quality cleanroom solutions, including the Fogging Shower, designed for decontamination of personnel entering or exiting a controlled environment. These systems are critical to maintain strict contamination control.
The reduction in surface concentrations can be up to 800 times less than the starting contamination levels with airborne particles around the operative and during de-gowning also significantly reduced.
The decontamination fogging shower is supplied with:
- Controls
- Utility control panel
- A factory-tested PLC
The location of control cabinets can be above or next to the cleanroom shower with a prewired cable for ease of site electrical installation.
Available with a range of control panel options:
- Standard – Siemens Logo PLC with the option of a remote ‘TDE’ PLC screen if required.
- Rockwell/Allen Bradley PLC with PanelView 800 HMI 4” color touchscreen.
The PLC is a touch screen located within the shower or on the PLC cabinet, which indicates the shower status and the alarms. The cycle recipes are stored, and password accessed by the nominated supervisor.
PBSC uses standard components to your specific requirements and specifications and provides all parts on the shower on plugs to facilitate the ease of replacements so that in the unlikely event of component failure downtime is minimized.
