IEST issues contamination control guidelines for aerospace sector

摘要

The Institute of Environmental Sciences and Technology (IEST) has released a new Recommended Practice, IEST-RP-CC046.1: Controlled Environments (Aerospace, Non-cleanroom), which contains contamination control guidelines from piece-part acquisition to product delivery. The guideline contains contamination control criteria to support successful performance of high-reliability products and associated subassemblies, which are not required to be produced in cleanrooms. A key factor in protecting such products from contamination is the development of a Contamination and Foreign Object Damage (FOD) Control Programme.
