DOP TEST
WHAT IS DOP TEST?

DOP stands for Dispersed Oil Particulate.


WHY IT IS DONE?
DOP tests are done to check the integrity & efficiency of HEPA
filters. The DOP test is relatively quick & repeatable. It
confirms that all components of the HEPA filters are working
correctly. HEPA filters need to be checked regularly to ensure
they are performing to industry standards. According to ISO
the DOP test should be done every 24 months.
INSTRUMENTS
HOW IT IS DONE?
First, there is a visual inspection of the filters for cracks, holes or any other damage
issues.
Then the equipment is turned on & is being prepared for the test. The equipment
comprises of an aerosol generator.
The next step involves releasing a dense cloud of aerosol into the upstream air flow
of the HEPA filters. A sample of the air & aerosol mixture is taken to set the baseline.
Then the filters can be scanned using a photometer to assess whether there is any
leakage. The maximum permissible leak is 0.01% or 0.03%.
