Static Pass Box (Wall Mounted)
Designed for transferring equipment and materials between cleanrooms of identical environmental classification. Built with high-purity AISI 304 or 316 stainless steel with flush-mounted wall flanges, mechanical or electromagnetic interlocking, and clear tempered safety glass windows.
Engineering Overview & Fluid Dynamics
Active contamination barrier and laminar downflow principles
The Himalayan Steel Static Pass Box is an inert transfer hatch designed for moving materials between adjoining cleanrooms operating at equivalent air cleanliness ratings (e.g., ISO Class 7 to ISO Class 7 or ISO Class 8 to ISO Class 8). Because no internal airflow is required, it relies on airtight silicone gaskets, rigid double-skin wall construction, and a reliable interlocking mechanism (mechanical rotary cam or 12V DC magnetic latch) to prevent drafts, bypass airflow, and airlock pressure collapse during material staging.

Cleanroom Construction & Architectural Design
cGMP sanitary fabrication details from our Baddi engineering works
Chamber outer and inner walls are pressed from heavy-duty AISI 304 or 316L stainless steel sheets, welded seamlessly with fully enclosed reinforcement ribbing for structural rigidity.
Internal rotary steel linkage mechanically prevents both door handles from turning at the same time without relying on electrical power, ensuring zero downtime in power outages.
Twin sheets of shatterproof toughened safety glass are bonded flush with the door frame, eliminating dirt traps and allowing clear visual inspection into the chamber.
One-piece continuous extruded hollow silicone profile fitted in a dedicated perimeter channel provides an airtight seal against pressure differential leakages.
Precision 4-side stainless steel wrap-around flashing collar covers wall cutouts neatly with sanitary food-grade RTV silicone sealant joints.
Centrally mounted germicidal UV tube provides surface decontamination during idle intervals, with door safety switches to prevent operator exposure.
Standard Operating Protocol (cGMP SOP)
Standard operating guidelines and contamination control sequence
Step-by-Step Material Transfer Sequence
Sanitization & Wipe-Down Protocol
- Wipe internal surfaces daily using lint-free cloths soaked in filtered 70% IPA.
- Clean both sides of the viewing glass with non-streaking cleanroom glass cleaner.
- Check door silicone gaskets weekly for elasticity, wear, or tears.
Fail-Safe Interlock Protection
- Mechanical or electrical interlocking guarantees single-door operation only.
- Instant microswitch disconnects UV lamp whenever either door is opened.
Optional Engineering Customizations
Site-specific hardware adaptations
- Electromagnetic 12V DC interlocking conversion with LED door status indicators
- Digital UV-C exposure timer with automatic shut-off countdown
- Stainless Steel 304 / 316 floor stand with adjustable leveling feet
- Support roller conveyor internal bed for heavy container roll-through
- Audio buzzer for door open timeout alert
- Flange extension trim for thick RCC civil walls (up to 300 mm)
