The cold chamber where is possible reach the -50°C is definitely the strength of the integrated system of laboratories. The ability to vary the internal temperature allows:
- minimize the thermal stress of instruments and materials allocated in the room;
- generate temperature cycles in order to perform experiments and tests in different environmental conditions;
- determine the response of the experiments and tests in different temperature conditions;
- check the reliability of experiments and materials being tested at the temperature established.
- perform experiments keeping the external control systems, allowing to limit the presence of personnel at very low temperatures.
The cold room / storage at -30°C will be used for temporary storage of instruments and materials.
The EuroCold Lab also include two laboratories with controlled contamination, where the air inside them is filtered by external contamination.
The clean room at -25°C is another strong point of EuroCold Lab. It is an environment with controlled atmosphere, certified ISO 14644-1 Class 6, with a maximum of
1,000 particles per ft3 of air, with a size greater than 0,5 μm. This clean room allows the treatment of samples of different nature in terms of cleanliness and temperature control. It's also available a clean room, also certified ISO 14644-1 Class 6, with environmental temperature and humidity controlled at +20°C.
All the various rooms are connected to an external laboratory, through a series of pre-chambers, with different degrees of temperature and contamination. This allows scientist, researcher and technicians to expand the ability to operate in different environments and performing experiments with specific environmental necessities.
