Description
The AP30 Ultrapure Cleanroom Fogger is a next-generation liquid nitrogen (LN₂) fogging system, engineered for high-precision airflow visualization, smoke studies and cleanroom validation. As the successor to the AP35, the AP30 offers enhanced portability, increased fog output and extended runtime, making it the ideal solution for ISO 14644 certification, semiconductor airflow mapping, pharmaceutical cleanroom validation and contamination control.
Using LN₂ and deionized water, the AP30 generates ultra-dense, zero-residue fog for crystal-clear airflow visualization, without introducing particulates, oils, or contaminants. With optimized fog production per liter of LN₂, the AP30 outperforms many traditional cleanroom fogging units in efficiency, visibility and operational flexibility.
Why Choose the AP30?
- Superior Fog Volume & Visibility – Produces up to 4.3 cubic meters of ultra-dense fog per minute, ensuring precise airflow tracking and turbulence analysis.
- Extended Runtime – Optimized LN₂ and DI water consumption allow up to 60 minutes of continuous fogging, reducing downtime.
- Ultra-Pure Fog – 100% clean, zero-residue fog, meeting ISO 14644, GMP and FDA requirements for cleanroom validation.
- Compact & Portable – A lightweight, ergonomic design makes the AP30 easy to transport and maneuver, ideal for on-site cleanroom certification.
- No False Positives in HEPA Testing – Unlike foggers using alternative fogging agents, LN₂ fog won’t coat HEPA filters or introduce contaminants, ensuring accurate test results.
- Optimized Efficiency Over Previous Models – The AP30 delivers higher fog output per liter of LN₂ compared to previous generations and other ultrapure foggers on the market.
