1 Filtration
For ISO 14644 compliant environments Fan Filter Units (FFU) with H14 HEPA filters and G4 pre-filters provide 1,000m³/hour of filtered air. Standard Isopods feature GT Flow Plus AC Fan Filter Units with roomside change and gel seal. But various filtration options are available for more bespoke units.
2 HVAC
Not available as standard. For more information on the different HVAC options available, please consult a member of the Isopod team. Typically, Saakvee apply temperature control via a VRF (variable refrigerant flow) split system serving a plenum for cleanrooms or wall-mounted recirculating units for labs. Humidity control is also provided via upflow units or separate desiccant wheels. External condensers can be contained in nearby plant rooms or mounted on the Isopod exterior.
3 Environmental Monitoring
Isopods tend to utilise GT Scan Helic Digihelic EMS systems as standard. Saakvee also provide fully integrated Environmental Monitoring Systems that can be 21 CFR Part 11 compliant. With a range of high-performance multifunction sensors, temperature, humidity and pressure can all be monitored in real time and recorded for an audit trail. Fully flush or semi flush LED displays give in-room feedback. We have a wide variety of options available.
4 Control Panel
15.7” touchscreen HMI+PLC can provide a full control and monitoring system for your Isopod, if required. The Environmental Monitoring System feeds back to give real-time data on temperature, humidity and pressure. Fan speeds and HVAC systems can also be controlled as well as other compatible equipment.
5 Fire Alarm
In-room smoke detectors and audible and visual alarm beacons can be installed and linked back to a centralised fire alarm panel. This can be connected back to the main facility fire panel board if required.
6 Gas Services
Compressed air and other specialist gasses such as N2 and CO2 can be installed, with pipework in stainless 316 or Transair and connection to dedicated compressors, generators or cylinders.
7 Compressed Air & Nitrogen
Compressed air and nitrogen via compressors and generators can be housed directly within bespoke Isopods – or in an enclosed plantroom. Pipework, point of use fittings, regulators and hook-up connections can also be put in place.

8 Extraction
Chemicals, airborne particulate and heat can all be extracted to a localised filtration unit for scrubbing. Safe change modules can also be placed on bespoke exhaust systems to mitigate the risk of cross-contamination.
9 13-Amp Sockets
2 x 13amp sockets as standard. Fuse board included. Bespoke Isopod models can include stainless steel or white plastic 13-amp sockets mounted flush. CAT6 network sockets, European schuko sockets and 16-amp or 32-amp three-phase sockets are also available in the range.
10 Lighting
Powder-coated steel light units, flush mounted into the ceiling panels with drop-down hinged diffuser. Also available as surface-mounted aluminium LED batten luminaires. Option for activation by switch or PIR (passive infrared) sensor. Lights can be UV filtered for photo sensitive processes.
11 Containment
Standard Isopods include 2 x 13amp sockets, but for bespoke solutions three-compartment PVC trunking is used for flexibility of socket positioning and cost effectiveness. Alternatively, for higher specifications, Saakvee can install sockets and services flush to the panel system with containment embedded within the panel core.
12 Network
Saakvee can provide CAT6 network ports – either flush or in containment – to ensure your Isopod is fully equipped for all your data needs. Cat6 cables have stricter performance specifications and significantly higher data transfer speeds at greater distances than Cat5/5e cables.
