CLEAN-BUILD CONSTRUCTION PROTOCOL
ACM’s Clean-Build division offers Protoclean protocol services for cleanroom construction according to ISO 14644-4 standards. ACM partners with the contractor and customer to establish and schedule protocol levels 1 through 5 for all phases of clean-build cleanroom construction. Protoclean’s progress, tasks, reports and environmental measurements are captured and stored on our own secure proprietary software system, making vital data easily accessible to the customer and contractor in real time.
MOBILIZATION
ACM is mobilized and on site as soon as the interior building is weathertight and installations of return ducts, process piping, unistrut, pipe hangers, and other utilities downstream of the clean air are started.
Equipment and Tool Hook-up Protoclean Protocols are executed once the facility passes the As Built Certification. At the completion of Tool Hook-up, a second Certification is performed under At Rest Conditions.
Protoclean is quality control for clean-build construction of cleanrooms.
