The series 401, a 100% polyester wipe, is mainly intended for cleaning tasks in areas that are controlled purely by particles. The hydro-entangled non-woven construction gives the wipe a high abrasion and tensile strength. The particularly soft non-woven fabric enables to clean dry even extremely scratch-sensitive surfaces. Compared to the polyester-cellulose non-woven wipes, the series 401 has a significantly lower particle emission.
Facts
Polyester
Non-woven, 100% PES, hydroentangled, soft
Properties
- 100% polyester
- hydro-entangled non-woven fabric
- low particle and fibre emission
- abrasion resistant
- exceptional soft non-woven fabric
- double bag packaging
Advantages
- good chemical compatibility with different solvents and cleaning agents
- as a non-woven wipe also applicable in particle critical areas
- due to the very soft non-woven fabric applicable for surfaces sensitive to scratches
Applications
- primarily for dry cleaning
- cleaning wipe also for more sensitive areas
- cleaning wipe for optical surfaces and other similarly sensitive surfaces (layers)
Product recommendation based on cleanroom classes
Of course, cleanroom wipes used in ISO 5 can also be used in ISO 9, but in this case the economic efficiency and usefulness should be considered.
A 1 to 1 allocation of cleanroom wipes to an air cleanliness class according to ISO 14644-1 is not possible. Recommendations can only be made on the basis of special properties relevant from a cleanroom technical point of view, such as "abrasion resistance" or "particle emission". Users can find further information on this in VDI Guideline 2083 Part 9.2.
