The Function of Fan Filter Units (FFUs) and Their Critical Applications in Clean Environments

Created on 07.08
In modern industrial production, clean environments are crucial for product quality control. The Fan Filter Unit (FFU), as one of the core equipment for clean environment control, plays an irreplaceable role in numerous high-tech industries. This article provides a detailed introduction to the functional principles and technical features of FFUs, as well as the outstanding performance of our factory's FFU.

I. Core Functions and Working Principles of FFUs

The Fan Filter Unit is an integrated air purification device combining a fan and a high-efficiency filter. Its primary function is to provide clean air for specific areas through forced circulation and high-efficiency filtration. The working principle of an FFU can be summarized in three key steps:
Air Intake: The built-in high-efficiency centrifugal fan draws in ambient air from the top of the unit
High-Efficiency Filtration: The drawn air passes through HEPA or ULPA filters, removing particles larger than 0.3 microns
Uniform Air Supply: The filtered clean air is evenly discharged from the entire outlet surface at a stable velocity of 0.45m/s±20%
This operational mode can continuously maintain air cleanliness in clean spaces, effectively controlling microdust contamination and meeting the stringent requirements of various precision manufacturing and production processes.
