Inspection of Cleanrooms and Operating Rooms According to ISO 14644
Cleanroom Qualification According to DIN EN ISO 14644 and DIN 1946
The requirements for a cleanroom are exceptionally high for good reason. Cleanrooms enable sensitive development and production processes or ensure proper patient care and treatment in a contaminant-free environment. Since room air can carry numerous germs and pollutants, Igienair offers comprehensive cleanroom qualification services in compliance with DIN EN ISO 14644 and DIN 1946.

Types of Cleanroom Qualification Services Offered:
1. Cleanroom Qualification or Testing According to DIN EN ISO 14644
Igienair ensures the protection of sensitive electronic components by verifying the air cleanliness in your cleanroom. From airflow patterns to filter integrity checks, every aspect is thoroughly examined. This guarantees that your cleanroom remains certified and free of foreign particles. A detailed report documenting all results is provided to ensure legal compliance and peace of mind.
2. Operating Room (OR) Qualification or Testing According to DIN 1946
Our work ensures hygienic conditions within operating rooms. Comprehensive hygiene checks, air quality assessments, and airflow inspections are conducted. Following this, we deliver a detailed report of the cleanroom testing. Strict adherence to infection control regulations ensures that your OR is ready for unrestricted medical use.
How Does Cleanroom Qualification Work?
At Igienair, we adhere to DIN EN ISO 14644-1, which outlines the requirements for measuring particle concentrations and categorizing cleanrooms into nine ISO classes. Additionally, we incorporate DIN EN ISO 14644-3:2006-3, VDI 2083-3:2005-07, and DIN 1946 for OR qualifications into our process to ensure a comprehensive assessment.
This approach allows us to determine whether your cleanroom meets the necessary requirements for its intended use.
Key Elements of Cleanroom Qualification Measurements:
Room Climate Parameters
We assess essential environmental factors such as temperature, differential pressure, humidity, and relative humidity to ensure optimal air conditions.Airborne Particle Concentration
Using the cleanroom classifications outlined in DIN EN ISO 14644, we measure particle concentrations per square meter, ranging from 0.1 µm to 5 µm in size (ISO classes/GMP).Air Exchange Rate
Ensuring the air exchange rate meets or exceeds the hygienic minimum rate of 0.3/h. We also perform laminar flow measurements to prevent particle deposition on surfaces.Protection Level for ORs
Operating rooms, classified as cleanrooms, must also meet stringent hygiene requirements under the Infection Control Act. We perform airflow visualizations, rigorous hygiene inspections, and adhere to standards such as DIN 1946-4:2018-09, DIN EN ISO 14644-3:2006-3, and VDI 2083-3:2005-07.
Our Comprehensive Service Portfolio Includes:
- Air Pressure Measurements
- Recovery Time Testing
- Detailed Evaluation and Documentation of Cleanroom Qualification

Cleaning of HVAC Systems
Cleaning & Disinfection of Ventilation Systems
We clean and disinfect according to VDI 6022, DIN EN 15780 2 – with a success guarantee!
Hygienic cleaning performed by Igienair in compliance with VDI 6022, DIN EN 15780 ensures the functionality and hygienically flawless operation of your ventilation systems (RLT systems) and cooling towers, meeting the latest technical standards.
Igienair is a certified specialist for the hygienic cleaning and disinfection (state-certified disinfectors) of mechanical ventilation systems, RLT systems, and evaporative cooling systems. Strictly adhering to VDI 6022, DIN EN 15780 guidelines, we ensure clean, fresh, safe, and standards-compliant ventilation systems in your facilities. Our highly qualified staff is happy to provide these services, guaranteeing clean indoor air and preventing health issues such as Sick Building Syndrome (SBS) or Legionellosis.
What is Sick Building Syndrome?
SBS affects individuals who spend extended periods in buildings where the indoor climate provides a conducive environment for germs and pests. As a result, HVAC systems in such buildings require frequent inspections and disinfection. We can explain how to prevent unwanted downtime, illnesses, and reduced productivity during an on-site consultation. Upon request, we will create a hygiene plan to maintain air quality.
Limescale deposits, contamination, or biofilm in cooling towers or humidification systems with recirculated water can lead to the growth of Legionella and Pseudomonas bacteria. This is why regular cleaning and disinfection according to VDI 6022 is essential.

Inspection of HVAC
The VDI 6022 Hygiene Inspection Requirement Ensures the Quality of the Essential Resource: Air
Breathing air is a vital resource. On average, humans consume about 30 kg of air daily – for comparison: solid food amounts to about 1 kg, and liquid intake roughly 3 kg.
Considering these numbers, it becomes clear: good air quality is essential for our well-being. For this reason, a ventilation hygiene inspection is indispensable, as:
Excessive or insufficient temperature or humidity, along with harmful substances in the air, not only affect our mood but can also harm our health. In spaces supplied with fresh air by ventilation systems (RLT systems), specific regulations (VDI 6022 standard) ensure that the system operates in a hygienically sound manner. Periodic hygiene inspections are necessary to meet these requirements.
Hygiene Inspection According to VDI 6022 for Clean Air
Igienair's specialists conduct hygiene inspections with professional visual assessments and microbiological analyses to ensure compliance. Should deficiencies be detected during the VDI 6022 inspection, we will promptly inform you.

Igienair’s ventilation hygiene inspection under VDI 6022 verifies the hygienic safety of your system. If issues are identified, we provide detailed suggestions for remediation.
The VDI 6022 Hygiene Inspection Is Not a Luxury
By commissioning a hygiene inspection (ventilation hygiene check) according to VDI 6022 guidelines from Igienair's experts, you not only ensure consistently high air quality but also establish legal compliance. A hygiene inspection under VDI 6022 is not a luxury – operators are obligated to maintain the safe functionality of their RLT systems through regular hygiene checks!
As a trusted partner in hygiene technology, we support you comprehensively and competently in fulfilling your obligations. We guarantee compliance with all regulations for the operation of your RLT systems.
Legally Secure Reports Based on VDI 6022 Hygiene Inspections
The VDI 6022 guideline, issued by the Association of German Engineers (VDI) for the field of technical building equipment, is recognized as a "state-of-the-art standard." This means that in the event of damage, experts will verify whether the guideline was followed or whether the RLT system operator is liable.
Regular and documented hygiene inspections provide legal security.
Inspection Intervals for RLT Systems
Before an RLT system is commissioned, an initial hygiene inspection in accordance with VDI 6022 must be conducted. Subsequent inspections depend on the type of system:
- RLT systems without humidification: Inspection every 3 years
- RLT systems with air humidification and/or underground ducts: Inspection every 2 years
If health complaints among staff arise outside the regular schedule, potentially linked to non-compliant ventilation systems, an unscheduled hygiene inspection according to VDI 6022 is recommended.
Conducting Hygiene Inspections: Trained Specialists Are Essential
To ensure a proper hygiene inspection of your RLT systems under VDI 6022, only specially trained professionals are qualified to perform the task.
As an operator, ensure the expertise of personnel in accordance with Category A certification of VDI 6022 – otherwise, the hygiene inspection may be legally challenged later.
Hygiene Inspections Uncover Deficiencies? Take Swift Action!
If deficiencies are identified during a ventilation hygiene inspection, prompt rectification is essential.
Professional ventilation system cleaning and air duct cleaning, following a hygiene inspection, ensure your RLT system operates in compliance with standards and provides safe breathing air for your staff.
Comprehensive Hygiene Inspections for Your Ventilation Systems: Igienair’s Expertise in VDI 6022
