PROJECT OBJECTIVE

AIRBUS clean room optimization control

The project consisted of the installation of ten particle counters in the ISO 8 clean room of AIRBUS in Getafe, dedicated to the manufacture of components for satellites, complying with the requirements of the ECSS-Q-ST-70-01C standard.

Companies such as Airbus use these cleanrooms to carry out critical and specialized operations in the production and assembly of aerospace components. These environments require controlled, particle-free conditions to ensure the integrity and optimum quality of products such as aircraft and satellites.

Date of execution:

From 2024 - present

Location:

Madrid, Spain.

Sector:

Defense and Aerospace

Client:

How we made it happen

Supply and install monitoring system.

Be provide full support, covering configuration, commissioning, software operation and maintenance, ensuring the correct measurement of particulates, temperature, humidity and differential pressure.

Nine fixed particle counters were installed in the ISO 8 clean room, plus a backup unit for calibrations.

The system included Lighthouse APEX R5P meters, temperature and humidity sensors, air flow sensors, differential pressure sensors and a thermometer-hygrometer, integrated into a control panel for monitoring.

Illuminated beacons were implemented that were activated when particulate levels exceeded established warning or alarm thresholds.

Airbus clean rooms are used in the manufacture and assembly of electronic components and complex systems, ensuring extreme cleanliness and control conditions and meeting the highest standards in the aerospace industry.

RESULTS AND ACHIEVEMENTS

Adaptable and flexible technology

  • With the new Micropoint II detection system, among other achievements:
  • To be able to detect any intrusion attempt that occurs, as an early warning to be able to counter the threat efficiently.
  • Locate the point of intrusion so that the reaction is as effective as possible, recognizing and verifying the alleged intrusion as a possible threat to the integrity of the military base compound.
  • Have consistent and robust 24/7 operation in the short, medium and long term.
  • Maximum detection reliability has been achieved by detecting each and every intrusion attempt over time, including multiple intrusion attempts.
  • Actively monitor the condition of the fence on an ongoing basis, with continuous recording of any mechanical incidents that occur.
  • Fictitious alarms due to adverse weather effects (heavy rain, hail, wind...) have been eliminated, thanks to logical filters based on the cable sensors.
  • The alarms have been adjusted to the peculiarities of the perimeter of the Araca Military Base, programming them between 1 meter (minimum) and 200 meters (maximum), in steps of 1 meter.
  • A particularly low vulnerability index and a negligible rate of false alarms and/or fictitious alarms have been achieved.
