Cleanroom
Curtains
Benefits
AirBlock, the #1 specified curtain in the industry,
offers versatility and reliability that cannot be
found with any other product. AirBlock curtains can be
used with framing to create a cleanroom, or also used
independently within an existing cleanroom to create
areas that are still cleaner. Combined with Simplex's
superior mounting systems, AirBlock curtains offer
increased durability and functionality. AirBlock
curtains offer easier access and the best protection. |

|
| AirBlock softwalls are
constructed from four-foot wide sheets of vinyl in
thicknesses from 40 to 80 mil. These sheets are RF
welded to form either solid walls or movable curtains.
They are especially suitable for enclosing portable
frame systems or improving laminar flow areas above
work spaces. Softwalls are also used to further divide
existing clean rooms, effectively creating cleaner
inner zones.
Features Include:
Largest selection of quality materials - Simplex
vinyls come in a wide array of colors, thicknesses and
properties. |

Sealed Corners |
Sealed Corners
Wraparound seals eliminate air loss or
particle penetration at the corners. Our thicker vinyls
require no hems or sash weights, and provide systems that
are cleaner looking, easily adaptable and longer lasting.

Entryways
Simplex offers a variety of entry options,
including hinged and sliding doors and strip doors. By
alternating clear and frosted vinyl, we eliminate sticking
and air gaps and make entrances easier to walk through.

RF-Welded Seams
Simplex uses RF welding on all seams
and attachments. Theses seals provide a permanent bond
that is cleaner and stronger than sewing. Sewing vinyl
seams perforates and weakens the material, and
frequent cleaning only accelerates the process. The
result is premature product failure and a source of
contamination.

Standard Cleanroom
Grade Vinyl
All Simplex vinyls are made from pure
ingredients, no recycled materials. Simplex vinyls are
formulated to be fire-retardant and low-outgassing. Refer to
our data sheets for complete test results on the material
required.
Thicknesses: .040, .060, .080, .120, and .160 mil.
Colors: Clear, frosted, white, amber tint, smoke tint, blue,
grey, black and tan.

Reinforced
Vinyl Coated Fabric
This tough, vinyl-coated polyester material is
ideal for areas in your cleanroom or factory that are
susceptible to frequent traffic and constant use. The vinyl is
also perfectly suited for applications that require a Class 1
fire rating per ASTM E-84 flame spread and smoke test.
Thickness: 18 oz. (25 mil)
Colors: White, black, blue, grey, red, yellow and translucent
frosted. |
Polysim 509 Non-outgassing, Static
Dissipative Polyurethane
Polysim 509 is made from an inherently
static-dissipative urethane that provides permanent,
non-humidity dependent ESD protection for sensitive
manufacturing conditions such as computer disk drives,
microelectronics, optics and aerospace. There is no
plasticizer used in Polysim, making the volatile condensable
contaminants extremely low. Because Polysim is an alloy using
high molecular weight materials, the static dissipation
properties are permanent. It does not wear off like many other
materials that use only a surface coating. Polysim is also
Class 1 fire rated for flame spread and smoke test.
Thicknesses: .030 and .040 mil.
Colors: Clear, white and black. |
Static
Dissipative Vinyl
Our ESD vinyl is built with permanent built-in
inhibitors. Unlike topical coating, these inhibitors will not
wear off and will last for the life of the curtain. Test
result show surface resistivity of 1.8 x 1010 ohm/cm (ambient
50% R.H.) per ASTM D257.
Colors: Clear, frosted, white, black and amber tint. |
Tested for
Safety and Reliability
All Simplex softwall materials are fully
tested. Test results are available for fire retardancy, ESD,
outgassing, sound abatement, chemical resistance and light
transmission. Refer to our data sheets for complete test
results on the material required. |
Laser and
Light Blocking Curtains
These specially designed softwall and curtain
systems are popular for enclosing or dividing areas for
special processes, such as laser functions and procedures,
photo lithography and other light-sensitive work areas.
Simplex's opaque black vinyl blocks out 100% of the light
transfer. The matte finish reduces light refraction. Curtains
are also available with foil inserts for use with more
powerful lasers. Simplex amber tinted curtains filter out
various degrees of blue, yellow and harmful ultra-violet
light. Light wavelength tests are available for Simplex red
and amber tint curtains.Thicknesses:
.040 to .080 mil
Softwall width: Any size
Strip widths: 8" to 48" |
| Important
Liability Disclaimer: Due to the
many different types of lasers, Simplex does not make any
performance claims for the laser protection contained in any
of our curtains used for laser applications. It is solely the
end user's responsibility to test samples of the curtains and
their protective linings for performance and safety and to
determine their usability in a given application. Free samples
will be provided for testing upon request. |

Closure and
Fastening Systems
Dual Lock Fastener -
This non-particulating, clear 3M- flexible
fastening system has a plasticizer resistant adhesive and is
ideal for attaching curtains vertically or horizontally to
frames, hoods, benches or on overlaps.
Hook and Loop Fastener -
Ideal for securing curtain overlaps.
Attaches to vinyl with a plasticizer-resistant adhesive and is
then sewn.
Flexible Magnet Self
Closures - This quality, flexible,
chemical-resistant magnet is ideal for overlapping areas where
frequent access is required.
Overlap Retention
Snaps - An inexpensive way of
closing overlap areas of the curtains.
Lap Lock -
The most recent Simplex innovation in closing systems in which
opposing flaps of vinyl are RF-welded and interlock to secure
panels in place. |
