    5) Locating portions of process equipment in chase ways, with clean access on the

    room side, can decrease floor space requirements as well as lessening heat gain and

    exhaust needs.

    6) Carefully evaluate the air distribution system. The major energy savings can accrue

    from the air distribution. The fan energy is proportional to the volume of air and the

    total static pressure used. Any reduction in the air velocity and filter coverage shall

    lead to the reduction in Fan HP. Some of the ways to optimize the static pressure are

    #"Minimize obstructions to air flow, run straight duct lengths and avoid arbitrary
    zigzags

    #"Select cooling coils, sound attenuators and filters with low air pressure drop

    #"Keep low face velocity

    #"Select high efficiency filters. Higher-performance air filters clean supply air
    more efficiently, resulting in a reduction of energy consumption.

    #"Avoid excessive safety margins

    As a rule of thumb every 1” wg static pressure shall result in 1.1° F rise in


    temperature of air.

    7) The greatest single HVAC load in a typical clean room is the heat load from outside

    air. A large amount of outside air is needed for makeup exhaust losses & leakages

    and also for clean zone pressurization requirements. Build tight and ventilate right

    should be the design principle. (refer part III, section 3 for details)

    8) Specifying high efficiency components, including high efficiency motors and fans,

    chillers and other equipment.

    9) Variable-speed drives: When used in air re-circulation, make-up, and exhaust fan

    motors, these drives use 15-30% less energy than constant-speed drives.

    10) Consider separate make up and re-circulation AHU units. Provide re-circulation

    AHUs with sensible conditioning apparatus and make-up AHUs with sensible and

    dehumidifying coils
