1. Introduction
This manual provides information on installing and
operating your Terra Universal Cleanbooth™ Laminar
Flow Station.
By studying this document carefully, you can be assured
of a long, efficient service life from the unit.
2. Description
Terra Universal's CleanBooth Laminar Flow Work Station
removes airborne particulate contamination to ensure a
clean work surface.
The backbone of the system is one or more fan filter units
(FFUs), each with a 3-speed, direct-drive electric motor
that forces air through a HEPA filter. The HEPA filter
removes 99.99% of all particles 0.3 microns and larger
from a large-volume air stream. The vertical laminar flow
of clean air to the work surface effectively blocks the
inrush of contaminants. Each 2' x 4' fan filter unit provides
an average of 644 CFM of filtered air @ 90 FPM (2' x 3'
units deliver 477 CFM). For more stringent cleanliness
requirements, ULPA-filtered units are available that
remove particles down to 0.12 microns with 99.999% efficiency.
Flexible anti-static vinyl curtains are available to enclose the work area. These curtains mount to the FFU support
stand by means of a flexible GripTrack™ system.
System options include fluorescent lighting and ionizing bars – see maintenance descriptions below.

3. Installation
The CleanBooth is normally shipped with FFUs pre-mounted in the support stand.
FFUs rest on the support frame – no fasteners are required. Optional curtains are installed by raising the outer cover
of the GripTrack mount, seating the curtain bead inside the track, and snapping the cover down to secure the curtain.

To operate the system,
1. Plug the power cord into an appropriate grounded receptacle (115VAC/60Hz or 230VAC/50Hz).
2. FFUs, light and ionizer are controlled by means of a single ON/OFF switch, located on the right-rear portion of
the work area.
3. The FFUs incorporate a 3-position impeller blower, which is normally shipped in the "High" position. Under
normal operating conditions, this setting should not be changed. The blower speed control is located on the
upper-right side of each unit.
4.0 Maintenance
Fan Replacement
Air velocity should be monitored to ensure effective filtration using an appropriate air-speed monitor. Under typical
conditions (8 hours of operation per day), filters should be replaced every year. As a HEPA filter clogs, you will notice
increased blower noise and vibration, along with decreased air speed.
To replace the filter: first remove the fan filter unit and move it to a safe, convenient location.
1. Use a crossblade screwdriver to remove the eight screws along the top perimeter of the FFU.
2. Carefully lift the top portion of the FFU, including the impeller blower, to expose the HEPA filter.
3. Replace the HEPA filter, which seats against lower edge of the FFU housing.
4. Replace the FFU top and blower assembly.
5. Reposition the FFU on top of the CleanBooth frame.

Fluorescent Lighting
Simply rotate the 4' fluorescent tube inside the fixture until it disengages and slides free. Replace with tube below
(typical life: two years of continuous operation). When ballast fails, replace entire light fixture (typical life: five years of
continuous operation).

Cleaning Frame and Curtains
Periodically, wipe down frame and optional curtain with a clean, non-linting wiper (polyester recommended), using
clean water and a mild detergent, if necessary. Use unidirectional (not circular) motion to remove surface
contaminants from the edges of all surfaces.

HEPA Filters
The filtration medium consists of highly efficient microfiberglass fiber folded over corrugated separators of aluminum
which prevent the media from nesting. This design channels air flow with optimal efficiency to reduce resistance.
All filters are tested for air flow resistance and DOP (dioctylphthalate) smoke penetration (with a mean particle
diameter of 0.3 microns) by measuring upstream and downstream smoke concentrations with a photometer.
