The NU-440-400 specs say that it can use up to 1440 watts (12 x 120), which equates to about 4900 Btu/h. Each person in the 10' x 10' space will add about 400 Btu/h, and each electrical item will add 3.41 Btu/h per watt. If the exterior of the 10' x 10' space is warmer than the space itself, there will also be heat conduction through the envelope and infiltration through open doors/windows.

All of this should be added up to give the total Btu/h for the air conditioning system. I'm just guessing on this, but most likely this will be within the capacity of a simple through-wall AC unit.

I have not addressed any special clean room or filtration requirements for the 10' x 10' space. The Nuaire unit has its own filtration system, so MAYBE the outer room will not need anything further. But be sure check that matter, too.

In addition, an air exchange rate must be incorporated to ensure certain degree of isolation for the room. I suppose this to be a positive type of isolation from the rest of the hallway with an an ante room in between.
