IEST-RP-CC003.4: Garment System Considerations in Cleanrooms and Other Controlled Environments
This Recommended Practice (RP) addresses the gowning of personnel as a critical aspect of cleanroom contamination control. The latest edition includes a new 20-page supplement, Guide to Measuring Cleanroom Garments, which provides recommended garment measurement specifications. The RP provides non-mandatory guidance for the selection, specification, maintenance, and testing of apparel and accessories appropriate for use in nonaseptic and aseptic cleanrooms. Purchase document.


IEST-RP-CC042.1: Sizing and Counting of Submicrometer Liquid-Borne Particles Using Optical Discrete-Particle Counters
This RP addresses the sizing and counting of submicrometer liquid-borne particles using optical discrete-particle counters with a focus on applications in the semiconductor, flat-panel display, and data storage industries. Liquid-borne particle measurement involves many technical challenges that can substantially affect results in both sizing and counting of particles. This RP is intended as a single source covering those challenges and solutions and provides a handy reference for professionals in this field. Purchase document.


IEST-RP-CC031.3: Method for Characterizing Outgassed Organic Compounds from Cleanroom Materials and Components

This RP describes a method for characterizing organic compounds outgassed from materials or components exposed to air or gases in cleanrooms and other controlled environments. New to the latest revision is a 4-page table listing materials of construction found in cleanrooms, generic classes of organic compounds known to outgas from these materials, and examples of problems caused by certain organic compounds. Purchase document.


IEST-RP-DTE019.1: Vibration Controller Selection
This RP provides rudimentary guidelines for those tasked with selecting a closed-loop digital shaker control system (DSCS) for use in vibration or shock testing, or both. The RP is concerned with single shaker operation only and assumes this system will be used for critical qualification of military or commercial products, for example, according to MIL-STD-810. Purchase document.


IEST-RD-DTE046.1: Terms Commonly Used in the Digital Analysis of Dynamic Data
The purpose of this Reference Document (RD) is to define, clarify, and disseminate terminology appropriate for digital analysis of dynamic data as used in environmental testing. This RD is intended to assist those involved in recording, analyzing, displaying, or interpreting data relating to the dynamic properties of mechanical systems. Such data may include strain, vibration, sound pressure variations, and system electrical characteristics. Purchase document.
