What is Federal Standard 209E and what is ISO Standard? Which is applicable for my Clean Room?
US Federal Standard 209E was the official document that outlines the classes of air cleanliness before 2001. On November 29, 2001, the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) officially announced that Federal Standard 209E, Airborne Particulate Cleanliness Classes in Cleanrooms and Clean Zones, has been canceled and superseded by ISO Standards for cleanrooms and associated controlled environments.
