This practice establishes the standard procedures (including apparatus, reagents, and materials to be used) for taking samples of airborne particulate matter in a specific area in the aerospace industry, commonly called the cleanroom, where aerospace fluids are handled. This practiced is based on the impingement of particles on a filter membrane using a vacuum technique. The number of air samples required in a given area will depend on the geometric floor area, the disturbance to the uninterrupted airflow pattern, and the room volume.
