And for the "Air Lock", if there is confusion about what is it, the basic concept is to maintain the pressure inside it. One simple example I can offer here; suppose, you have a manufacturing facility with clean rooms. The arrangement is such that the airlock changing room will come first followed by the air shower and then your clean room. You first enter through the door of the air-lock room. While you are entering through that door, a second person already in the changing room can not open the door which leads to the adjacent air-shower room. Once you shut the first door, then only the door to the air-shower can be opened. So, in short from my experience, only one door at a time can be opened in the air-lock facilities and from the changing room to the clean room, all are usually air-locked to minimize an abrupt change in the pressure.Clothes changing can be done in changing room. Go through the air shower. I have no idea for air lock.
Layout of my facility like this: Changing room (grade D) ==> airlock ==> clean area (grade D). What is the clothes changing procedure? Can u share with me your opinion?I also second Ronen's comment, if the confusion in here is all about clothes changing. It is simply putting the protective over-gowning for a class 8 equivalent room.

Usually, we put our protective clothes one after another in a similar fashion as follows and we don't change our normal clothes, but we remove our shoes at shoe rack and enter the non-sterile area of gowning room with socks on. From there we follow the protocol almost similar to the following [to some extent, as it may differ from Class to Class. You may make some changes to the below protocol depending on your convenience keeping compliance in your mind]. ;Layout of my facility like this: Changing room (grade D) ==> airlock ==> clean area (grade D).

Agreed! My brother is working in a pharmaceutical factory and their company have the similar policy as their clss D is equivalent to 14644 and their staff do not change the clothes at the time of enteringAssuming that Class D is equivalent to ISO 14644 Class 8 (Class 100,000), there's no need to change clothing before entering. Typically over-gowning suffices, and it takes place in the change room you mentioned.
