WHAT IS DOP TESTING?
DOP testing measures the efficiency of HEPA or ULPA filters used in environments where air quality is critical, such as cleanrooms and healthcare facilities. It involves dispersing a challenging aerosol called DOP, consisting of synthetic oil particles sized at 0.3 micrometers—the most penetrating size for HEPA filters.
The filter is exposed to controlled airflow, and the concentrations of DOP particles before and after filtration are compared to determine filter efficiency. HEPA filters must achieve a minimum 99.97% efficiency for 0.3 micrometer particles.
DOP testing ensures filters function properly, remove particles effectively, and maintain desired air quality, protecting against contamination.
DOP TESTING SERVICES
Trained to operate & service test equipment & certified to perform HEPA integrity / leak tests
● Equipment such as vacuums and negative air and decontamination units
The test must be performed when a filter is replaced in a HEPA filter vacuum cleaner or ventilation unit, or on site prior to the start of work before a negative air ventilation system begins to filter the
contaminated air.
The documentation for a DOP test will include the certificate of testing (the paper copy documentation) and certificate label (the sticker that is attached to tested equipment).
Quick-service time response (Asbestos air monitoring through Lotus is an option as well) which ensures efficiency of your project.
