1. What is a Clean Booth and Its Role in Electronics Manufacturing?

A Clean Booth (also known as a localized cleanroom) is a compact, self-contained clean environment designed to maintain a stable cleanliness level within a general production area. It operates using FFU (Fan Filter Units) combined with HEPA or ULPA filters to remove microscopic particles from the air, then circulates clean air either vertically or horizontally within the enclosed space.

Basic Structure of a Clean Booth:

  • Frame: Typically constructed from 304 stainless steel or aluminum profiles.
  • Enclosure: Made of soft PVC curtains or rigid polycarbonate/mica panels.
  • Filtration System: Includes pre-filters, intermediate filters, and HEPA/ULPA filters.
  • FFU Units: Ensure stable airflow and maintain differential pressure.
  • Lighting & Controls: Integrated LED panels and optional digital control systems.

Why Do Electronics Manufacturers Need Clean Booths?

In the electronics industry—especially in SMT assembly, BGA inspection, and packaging—dust and static contamination can lead to component failure or yield loss. A Clean Booth provides a cost-effective and modular solution to mitigate these risks:

  • Effectively controls fine dust (PM0.3-PM10) in sensitive work areas
  • Reduces the risk of electrostatic discharge (ESD) affecting microcircuits
  • Protects components during assembly, inspection, and handling
  • Easy to deploy in specific production zones without building a full-scale cleanroom
  • Optimizes costs for small-to-medium factories or expanding production lines

A Clean Booth is more than just an air filtration system—it's a frontline defense for maintaining product quality in modern electronics manufacturing environments.

2. Types & Pricing of Clean Booths for Electronics Factories (2025 Update)

Clean Booths are widely used across electronics factories to create localized clean zones that prevent dust and static contamination—especially in SMT lines, inspection stations, and component storage areas.

Below is an overview of the most popular Clean Booth types, categorized by ISO cleanliness class, along with updated 2025 pricing:

Notes:

  • All prices include FFU units, HEPA filters, structural frame (aluminum or stainless steel), and LED lighting.
  • Prices exclude shipping, installation, and custom layout design.
  • Options available for custom dimensions, FFU quantity, and material selection (304 stainless steel or aluminum frame).

3. Key Factors That Affect Clean Booth Pricing

The cost of a Clean Booth is not fixed—it depends on several technical and project-specific factors. Below are the five most important considerations when budgeting for your clean zone:

1. Custom Dimensions

  • The size and height of the Clean Booth directly affect the number of FFUs, frame materials, and installation time.
  • Projects with unique layouts (L-shapes, elongated designs, additional doors) may incur additional costs for materials and custom assembly.

2. Type of FFU Used

  • HEPA H13 FFUs are the standard for electronics manufacturing environments.
  • For ultra-clean requirements (ISO 5-6), ULPA H14 filters can be used, which may increase the cost by 20-30%.
  • Airflow capacity, noise level, and FFU brand (e.g., Panasonic, EBM, OEM) also influence pricing.

3. Frame Material Options

  • 304 Stainless Steel: Durable, corrosion-resistant, easy to clean - highest cost.
  • Aluminum Profiles: Lightweight, modular, easy to install - most commonly used.
  • Powder-Coated Steel: Cost-effective option, suitable for auxiliary or storage areas.

4. Order Quantity

  • Retail orders (1-2 units) follow listed pricing with minimal discount.
  • Bulk orders (5-10 units) or full project packages receive competitive pricing, including free shipping and installation support from VCR.

5. Cleanroom Standards & Certification

  • Pricing varies depending on the target cleanliness level: ISO Class 5, 6, 7, or 8.
  • Projects that require third-party validation (particle count testing, pressure differential measurement, etc.) will incur additional costs for test equipment and certified personnel.

5. FAQ - Common Questions About Clean Booths in Electronics Manufacturing

Is ISO certification required for a Clean Booth?

→ It depends on the project requirements. Some clients only need internal cleanliness standards, but electronics manufacturers serving international markets often require compliance with ISO 14644.
VCR can assist with particle count testing, pressure differential measurement, and ISO certification upon request.

How many FFUs do I need for a 6-meter SMT line?

→ On average, 1 FFU is required for every 1-1.5 meters of linear length to maintain stable airflow and the desired cleanliness level.
VCR will calculate the exact number of FFUs needed based on the booth’s height, work zone layout, and cleanliness class per production step.

Can Clean Booth filters be replaced periodically?

→ Yes. The FFU system in VCR’s Clean Booths is designed for easy replacement of HEPA and pre-filters.

Recommended replacement schedule:

  • Pre-filters: Every 3-6 months
  • HEPA filters: Every 12-18 months or based on pressure drop readings

VCR provides genuine replacement filters and on-site maintenance services as needed.
