In air conditioning systems for high-purity environments such as cleanrooms, fan-filter units (FFU) are one of the core devices for achieving air cleanliness control. Through their efficient air filtration and stable airflow distribution, FFU ensure the purity and uniform distribution of indoor air. They work collaboratively with dry coil units (DC) and other components to maintain cleanroom environmental conditions.
High-Efficiency Air Filtration and Airflow Distribution
FFU, with their built-in HEPA filters, remove airborne particles, including dust, bacteria, and viruses, ensuring that the air delivered to the cleanroom meets high cleanliness standards.
FFU also utilize their built-in fans to create stable vertical laminar or turbulent airflow, preventing localized contamination. This stable airflow is crucial for maintaining cleanroom cleanliness, especially in the semiconductor manufacturing and biopharmaceutical industries, where cleanliness requirements are extremely high.
Cooperation and Application Scenarios
In dry coil systems, FFU work collaboratively with dry coil units (DC) and other components, such as the main air handling units (MAU). The MAU is responsible for introducing and processing outdoor fresh air, removing particulate matter through primary and secondary filtration, and conditioning the fresh air to the specified temperature and humidity.
The fresh air treated by the MAU is mixed with a portion of the return air, filtered by the FFU, and then delivered to the cleanroom. The indoor air is cooled or heated by the dry coil before being recirculated to the return air duct and mixed with the fresh air, forming a closed-loop air circulation system.
The FFU operates continuously to maintain air circulation frequency and ensure indoor air cleanliness. The dry coil adjusts the chilled water flow or temperature based on temperature sensors, handling only the sensible heat load and avoiding interference with temperature and humidity control. This clear division of labor improves overall system performance and reliability.
Among the many FFU products available, the KLC FFU is an excellent choice on the market for its superior performance and flexible design. Utilizing KLC's proprietary high-efficiency filters, the KLC FFU achieves highly efficient air filtration, ensuring high indoor air cleanliness.
