What is required of air in a Containment Secondary Engineering Control (C-SEC)?

  1. It must be recycled

  2. It must be of ISO 5 quality

  3. It must be internally recirculated

  4. It must be externally exhausted

The correct answer is: It must be externally exhausted

In a Containment Secondary Engineering Control (C-SEC), the air must be externally exhausted. This means that the air in the C-SEC needs to be removed from the containment area to prevent any contamination from spreading. By externally exhausting the air, any potential hazardous materials or particles are safely vented outside of the controlled environment. This process helps maintain the cleanliness and safety of the C-SEC, making option D the correct answer. Options A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the specific requirement for air in a Containment Secondary Engineering Control (C-SEC). Recycling the air, maintaining ISO 5 quality, or internally recirculating the air could compromise the containment and safety protocols of the C-SEC.
