The Challenge
Bloodhound LSR is a UK-based project aiming to break the world land speed record. At a round of testing, located in Norway, the Bloodhound LSR team required a quick solution and cleanroom capacity in the field.
The Solution
To ensure the utmost precision and performance, the Bloodhound LSR team utilised the ISO clean environment to protect the car’s high-powered hybrid rocket pump system whilst it is stripped down and deep cleaned ready for testing.
The construction and assembly of the engine require a controlled environment that minimises the presence of contaminants. Even the tiniest particles or impurities can affect the engine’s performance and compromise its safety at extreme speeds. The Clean Tent provides a controlled environment that adheres to strict cleanliness standards, ensuring that the engine is built with precision and free from contaminants.
The Clean Tent offers a versatile solution for creating controlled and sterile environments in a wide range of industries and applications. Their ability to maintain cleanliness, control contamination, and provide flexibility in setup makes them invaluable tools for industries that prioritise precision, reliability, and safety.
They are lightweight and modular, allowing for quick setup and dismantling as needed. A ULPA Bag Protects the whole fan filter unit including the ULPA and pre-filter, while the tent also fits neatly into a Tent Bag when in transport or storage.
Equipped with efficient filtration systems, the ULPA (Ultra-Low Particulate Air) filters used in these tents effectively remove particles down to 0.12 microns with an efficiency of 99.9995%. This level of filtration ensures a clean and particle-free environment, minimizing the risk of contamination during sensitive operations.
Compared to constructing permanent cleanrooms, clean tents provide a more affordable option, saving on construction costs, maintenance expenses, and the need for extensive facility modifications.
Through meticulous engineering and the use of a Clean Tent, the Bloodhound LSR project pushes the boundaries of speed and innovation, inspiring future generations of engineers and leaving an indelible mark on the world of land speed records.
