Overview of the IEST-RP-CC001 Standard

IEST-RP-CC001 is a recommended practice issued by the Institute of Environmental Sciences and Technology (IEST). It provides guidelines for the classification, 测试, and evaluation of HEPA and ULPA filters used in cleanroom and contamination-controlled environments.

IEST-RP-CC001 defines the recommended procedures for evaluating high-efficiency air filters in terms of filtration performance and leakage integrity.

Key Test Methods in IEST-RP-CC001

Particle Penetration Measurement

Particle Penetration Measurement

Filter efficiency is determined by measuring the concentration of test aerosol particles upstream and downstream of the filter.

Typical test aerosols include PAO (polyalphaolefin), DOP equivalent oils, and other liquid aerosols suitable for photometric detection.

泄漏检测 (扫描测试)

The standard provides guidance for filter integrity verification through scanning methods. A scanning probe is moved across the downstream surface of the filter while monitoring particle concentration. Local increases in concentration indicate potential leaks in the filter media, frame, or seal.
