Latest company case about How to use a filtration unit?

Introduction to FFU Operation

Fan Filter Units (FFUs) are essential components in creating controlled clean environments across various industries. Our factory's FFU model represents cutting-edge air filtration technology, combining high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtration with precision airflow control. This guide will walk you through proper installation, operation, and maintenance procedures to maximize your FFU's performance.

Step-by-Step Usage Instructions

1. Pre-Installation Preparation

Site Assessment: Verify ceiling structure can support the unit's weight (approximately 25kg)

Power Requirements: Ensure availability of AC220V, 50Hz power supply

Space Verification: Confirm minimum 50cm clearance above the unit for proper air intake

2. Installation Process

Mount the FFU securely using the provided brackets

Connect to power supply following the wiring diagram (L/N/PE)

For multiple units, maintain 5-10mm spacing between adjacent FFUs

Install the HEPA filter (1170×570×69mm) with proper sealing gaskets

3. Initial Startup Procedure

Power on the unit and allow 5-minute stabilization

Verify uniform airflow across the entire face area

Check for abnormal vibrations or noises

Measure face velocity (should be 0.45±0.09 m/s)

Advanced Operation Features

Speed Control Technology

Our FFU's direct-drive centrifugal fan offers:

Stepless speed adjustment from 30-100% capacity

Automatic compensation for filter loading (maintains 1000 m³/h airflow)

62 dB maximum noise level at full speed

Multi-Unit Configuration

Single unit operation for localized clean zones

Linear arrangement for Class 100 assembly lines

Grid formation for full cleanroom coverage

Centralized control of up to 8,000 units via optional DC motor system

Maintenance Best Practices

Routine Maintenance Schedule

Frequency Task
Weekly Visual inspection for filter damage
Monthly Surface disinfection (IPA wipe)
Quarterly Velocity measurement
Biannually Electrical safety check
Annually Full performance validation

Filter Replacement Indicators

Velocity drops below 0.36 m/s

Differential pressure exceeds 250 Pa

Visible particle accumulation

Every 12-18 months under normal operation

Technical Specifications Quick Reference

Validate according to GMP requirements

Implement frequent filter integrity testing

Electronics Assembly

Maintain ISO Class 5 environment

Focus on ESD control measures

Monitor sub-micron particle counts

Healthcare Facilities

Position above critical care areas

Coordinate with room pressure regimes

Use antimicrobial coating options

Conclusion

Proper utilization of our FFU systems ensures reliable, energy-efficient clean air solutions for your critical environments. By following these guidelines, you can maximize filtration performance while extending equipment service life. For specialized applications or technical support, our engineering team is available to assist with custom configurations and validation services.
