At this Microtechnology Park, future microtechnology and nanotechnology products are developed. Research is conducted in high-tech disciplines such as micro- and nanoscience, optics, robotics, biomedical and e-health.
In order to provide scientists with the optimal conditions for their research, the technology park installed a cleanroom.
When the cleanroom was designed, engineers requested a competitive filtration product, but they discovered over time that the installed FFU solution they had chosen was inadequate to reach the desired cleanroom class.
At the time this customer decided to expand their cleanroom space, AAF got involved via ENGIE Axima to plan a better air supply solution. FFUs were the product of choice to avoid extensive construction with ductwork.
After reviewing the local conditions, it was clear that with standard-sized FFUs, it would not be possible to adequately filter the complete area of the rooms and reach the required cleanroom classes. A customized solution was necessary.
AAF experts developed a concept that included 76 customized FFUs (equipped with H14 and U15 filters, suitable for roomside change) with a corresponding ceiling grid, teardrop lights, and a control system. According to AAF’s design concept, five different cleanroom zones could be defined. Each zone was equipped with a separate FFU group, enabling the customer to reach different ISO classifications. Together with ENGIE Axima, the plan was presented to the customer.
