e2v clean room project

Cavendish Engineers have been appointed by E2V technologies as the main contractor for design and build of their new clean room facility.

e2V deliver solutions, sub-systems and components, to these advanced systems companies, for their specialist applications within medical & science, aerospace & defence, and commercial & industrial markets.
The clean room projects includes; an ISO Class 6 facility, complete with 6 clean rooms, a clean corridor, change room and air lock.

The mechanical and electrical plant for this project was designed with stringent conditions on temperature, humidity and pressure. Energy efficiency and low running costs are notoriously difficult to achieve in such demanding cleanroom environments, but with localized re-circulating Air Handling Units both energy efficiency and reliability can be achieved. With LED lighting providing a higher quality light for the cleanroom user for a much improved running cost against other existing lighting solutions.

This project coincides with e2Vs’ clean room expansion plan to meet the demands of their clients. The clean room facility is due for completion in October 2011.
