This standard defines the requirements and guidelines for the measurement of particulate contamination on the surfaces of spacecraft systems and those of the cleanrooms or other cleanliness controlled areas in which they reside. This includes the measurement of particulate contamination that is present on the spacecraft or cleanroom surfaces via the use of representative witness samples placed in the vicinity of the spacecraft hardware, the direct measurement of particulate contamination levels on surfaces of spacecraft hardware from the direct surface transfer to adhesive tape-lift samples and particulate contaminant levels within fluids used for the cleaning or rinsing of such spacecraft system components and cleanroom surfaces. This standard also defines the methods to be used for the visual inspection of spacecraft system hardware for particulate contamination. The measurement of airborne particulate contamination is not covered in this standard and ISO 14644 "Cleanrooms and associated controlled environments" is applicable in this case. This standard does not cover particulate contamination monitoring for spacecraft propulsion hardware which is covered in ECSS-E-ST-35-06. This standard may be tailored for the specific characteristic and constrains of a space project in conformance with ECSS-S-ST-00.
