Application

Ceiling system suitable areas where there are demands on air contamination and pressure control, and where occasional wet-wiping and/ or disinfection is required, including laboratories, the pharmaceutical and electronics industries, and healthcare premises.

Description

The system consists of Ecophon Hygiene Protec Air™ A tiles, which have a core of high-density glass wool and a painted, particle-repellent Akutex™ HP surface. The edges are painted, and the back of the tile is covered with an airtight glass tissue. The supporting structure is an exposed Connect™ T24 grid of galvanized steel. The system is clean room-classified according to ISO 3.

 

The weight of the system is 3-4 kg/m². The tiles should be secured to the grid with Connect Hygiene clips in order to withstand air pressure.


Features and benefits:

  • Absorption class (test results according to EN ISO 354. Classification according to EN ISO 11654: Class A for 40 mm thickness, Class B for 20 mm thickness).
  • Clean room classification to ISO 3 (ISO 14644-1:2015 and zone 4, NFS 90-351).
  • Complies with French VOC A+, Danish indoor climate label, Finnish M1 and California emissions Regulation CDPH.
  • Can withstand the use of common disinfecting chemicals and hydrogen peroxide vapour.
  • A fire reaction rating of A2-s1, d0.
  • Air permeability: 0.7 or 1.2 m³/(h x m² x Pa), depending on thickness.
  • The tiles withstand a permanent ambient relative humidity of up to 95% at 30°C, in accordance with EN 13964.
  • The tiles are demountable.
  • CE marked to EN 13964.
