できる。Next, a method of this embodiment using the apparatus having the above configuration will be explained. The object to be measured 2, which has been pretreated by wiping it with a low-dust-producing nonwoven cloth or blowing cleaning air, is placed in the measurement chamber 1, and first the operation of the object to be measured 2 is stopped. Then, the blower 6 is operated to introduce clean air or the like into the measurement chamber 1, and a preparatory operation is performed for a predetermined period. After reaching a steady state, the number of dust particles in the clean air sampled by the sampling tube 10 is measured by the light scattering particle counter 9. Note that suction is performed from the sampling tube 10, but the sampling tube 10 is closed so that the direction of the flow of sampled air does not change at the tip of the sampling tube 10.
The amount of air blown by the blower 6 and the inner diameter of the cylindrical member 10a at the tip of the sampling tube 10 are adjusted so that the tip of the sampling tube 10 is arranged and the flow rate of the sampled air is approximately equal to the flow rate of the air flowing in the surrounding exhaust pipe. It is preferable to adjust the amount of suction and the amount of suction. In this state, first remove the dust attached to the object to be measured 2, check that the number of dust measured by the light scattering particle counter 9 is almost zero, and set the background cleanliness to 0, then , the object to be measured 2 is operated, and the number of dust generated when the motion R structure is moved under predetermined conditions is measured and taken as the cleanliness level during the movement. In this measurement, the position of the cylindrical member 10a at the tip of the sampling tube 10 is
It is preferable to move it in the plane direction and measure at multiple locations. The amount of dust generated from the movement mechanism is determined by subtracting the background cleanliness from the cleanliness during this movement, and if the flow rate of the gas flowing into the measurement chamber 1 is measured and converted into units, the amount of dust generated by the object to be measured 2 The total amount of dust can be calculated from
