Hi, I'm looking for a reference for environmental monitoring in our production areas. Our clean rooms follow the 14644 guidelines but for our other manufacturing area's that produce medical devices we have just decided to do air monitoring (settle plates) where we assume there is a lot of foot traffic/operations occurring. Our recent audit picked up that there is no clear rationale for where we do air monitoring. So I want to know if there is maybe a standard that specifies where you should put a settle plate per square metre in an area or is there any justification as to how many settle plates to put in a manufacturing area that is not a clean room?
