Cleanroom lighting is an essential component for both the functionality and cleanliness of a cleanroom. It is designed to minimize particulate generation and minimize glare, while still providing adequate illumination for personnel to perform their tasks.

Cleanroom lighting fixtures are constructed with materials that minimize particulate release, such as aluminum or stainless steel. They are also designed to be easily cleaned and maintained to prevent build-up of contaminants. Lighting fixtures should adhere to international standards such as ISO 14644 or Federal Standard 209, which outline requirements for particle count and allowable contamination levels.

To ensure maximum effectiveness, cleanroom lighting should be positioned strategically to minimize shadows and glare. It is also important to regularly clean and replace the lighting fixtures to prevent buildup of contamination. Any maintenance work on lighting fixtures should be performed by trained professionals using appropriate tools and cleaning methods.
