Resistance Is Futile- The Times Are Changing !

Resistance is futile- does that sound familiar? time marches on, dragging us all along in its wake.Some changes are inevitable in a changing world, the old ways of doing things are no longer adequate, and higher standards need a new and different scale to measure against .

Don't tell the Queen but Corgi has been abolished, it is now called Gas Safe(does the same job but it's easier to house-train) and similarly the old FED-std- 209e class 100 classification has been long since superceded.

 If anyone you are dealing with is still using the old scale of  reference, chances are that they haven't upgraded their systems or  had new annual ISO 14644 certification for many years if ever.


The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) released a Notice of Cancellation for FED-STD-209E <http://www.iest.org/i4a/pages/index.cfm?pageid=3480#cancellation>,

Airborne Particulate Cleanliness Classes in Cleanrooms and Clean Zones, on November 29, 2001.


The Federal Standard 209E cancellation is based on the recommendation by IEST Working Group CC100 that FED-STD-209E no longer be maintained. The IEST, assigned by the GSA as the Preparing Activity organization for FED-STD-209E, has recommended that International Standard ISO 14644, Cleanrooms and controlled environments-Part 1: Classification of air cleanliness, and Part 2: Specifications for testing and monitoring to prove continued compliance with ISO 14644-1, supersede FED-STD-209E. ISO

14644-1 and 14644-2 are two parts of a multi-part group of ISO Standards developed by ISO Technical Committee 209 (ISO/TC 209). All ISO/TC 209 Standards may be ordered online through IEST. Click here <http://www.iest.org/i4a/pages/index.cfm?pageid=3278> to enter the IEST Publications Store.
