What Is a Cleanroom Pass Box?

Pass Box (also known as a Pass Through, Pass-Through Chamber, or Transfer Hatch)  is a controlled transfer chamber used to move materials between adjacent cleanroom or controlled areas while reducing unnecessary personnel movement and cross-contamination risks.

Depending on the process, pass boxes can be configured with door interlocks, HEPA-filtered airflow, laminar flow, air-shower nozzles, UV-C, conveyor systems and project-specific controls.

What’s more,Proper installation ensures the pass box functions as intended, maintaining the integrity, safety, and cleanliness of the adjoining spaces.

Cleanroom pass boxes come with different features and sizes, So It is important to choose the right one for your cleanroom,

There are available in 3 different types,the main differences are the ventilation and contamination filtering.

  • Static/Passive pass box: transfer the material to two clean room which have classified,and has no air supply or extract. It is also known as passive pass box and equipped with UV light.
  • Dynamic/Active  pass box: between classified and non-classified areas. Material is passed through vertically HEPA filtered air.completely integrated within the partition wall. Designed to transfer the materials in cleanroom environment making sure that there is not much movement.
  • Laminar flow (Biological )pass box:  with built-in motor and GEL HEPA filter (H14),the air blows from the SUS diffuser by undirectional flow .To Meet the GMP requirements.

A dynamic pass box is a device with built-in motor and HEPA filter to supply air from Nozzles or diffuser, the air passed through HEPA H13/14 filters  is blowing over the material.

They are usually applied to transfer the material between non-cleanroom  to cleanroom  or between two cleanrooms with different levels.Transfering material from Class D ( ISO 8) to Class C ( ISO 7) would require a Dynamic Pass-Through Hatch.

Flair pass boxes are widely used in contamination-controlled environments where materials must move safely between different cleanliness zones.

Typical industries include:

Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

Transfer of raw materials, intermediates, sterile components, packaging materials, and finished products while maintaining GMP compliance.

Biotechnology

Safe transfer of culture media, laboratory consumables, samples, and sterile equipment.

Semiconductor Manufacturing

Protection of wafers, precision components, and electronic assemblies from particulate contamination.

Medical Device Production

Contamination-controlled transfer during assembly, inspection, and packaging processes.

Hospitals and Healthcare

Movement of sterile supplies, surgical instruments, and pharmaceutical products between controlled environments.

Food and Beverage

Transfer of ingredients and packaging materials in hygienic production areas requiring strict contamination control.

Research Laboratories

Efficient movement of experimental materials while maintaining laboratory containment and cleanliness.

The interlocked doors prevent both doors from opening simultaneously, minimizing direct airflow between adjacent rooms. Dynamic pass boxes further reduce contamination by supplying HEPA-filtered air into the chamber before materials are transferred.

Most cleanroom pass boxes are manufactured from:

  • SUS304 stainless steel
  • SUS316L stainless steel
  • Powder-coated steel
  • Tempered safety glass viewing windows

Stainless steel is generally preferred because it is corrosion-resistant, easy to clean, and suitable for GMP environments.

Mechanical interlocks use purely mechanical components and require no electrical power. They are simple, reliable, and cost-effective. Electronic interlocks use electromagnetic locking systems, allowing integration with alarms, PLC controls, building management systems (BMS), and access control systems.
