KLC Cleanroom Equipment Selection Guide for Electronics Factories
KLC Cleanroom Equipment Selection Guide for Electronics Factories
April 17, 2026
With the rapid development of the integrated circuit and semiconductor industry, the requirements for cleanrooms in electronics factories are no longer limited to the traditional "class 10,000" or "class 1,000". Some core areas even require "class 100" or higher standards. The selection of cleanroom equipment in electronics factories needs to be closely aligned with core requirements, taking into account multiple dimensions such as cleanliness level, antistatic properties, and protection against chemical gases (AMC).
Electronics factories not only need to strictly control the number of particles between 0.1μm and 0.5μm, but also have extremely high requirements for anti-static and chemical gas protection. Class 100 is typically used in core chip manufacturing and photolithography; Class 1000 and Class 10,000 are mostly used in assembly, testing, and packaging areas.
Core Equipment Selection Guide
In large-scale cleanroom applications in electronics factories, KLC fan filter unit (FFU) are the preferred choice. Given the vast workshop area, the energy efficiency ratio of the fan filter unit (FFU) is crucial; therefore, it is recommended to select KLC fan filter unit (FFU) equipped with high-performance EC motors to achieve group control management and energy-saving operation.
For Class 100 and above areas, KLC ultra-high efficiency filters are recommended, with a filtration efficiency of over 99.999% for 0.12μm particles. In high-end chip manufacturing plants, KLC PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) filters are the preferred alternative to traditional glass fiber filter media due to their corrosion resistance, zero shedding, and low pressure loss characteristics.
Given the large number of employees in electronics factories, KLC automatic sliding door air showers or air shower tunnels should be selected to improve passage efficiency and be equipped with high-efficiency anti-static devices.
Application of local purification and clean booths
Not the entire workshop requires a high level of cleanliness. For specific workstations on the production line, KLC clean booths can be used. This equipment is low-cost, quick to install, and easy to move, and can rapidly create localized Class 100 production spaces within a Class 10,000 workshop, significantly reducing initial construction costs.
Material transfer and pollution prevention
KLC electronic interlock pass-through windows are indispensable. In semiconductor processing, materials need to be frequently switched between rooms of different cleanliness levels. KLC electronic interlock pass-through windows ensure that two doors are not opened at the same time, effectively maintaining indoor pressure balance and cleanliness.
The stable operation of cleanrooms in electronics factories relies on high-standard air filtration. KLC air filters and fan filter unit (FFU) equipment, with their long lifespan and high reliability, have become long-term partners of many semiconductor and electronics manufacturing companies.
