In connection with Air Conditioning Units, there are two basic air-handling
concepts for modular Cleanrooms that find common use:
A) Fan Filter Unit Concept
B) Ducted air-supply concept with terminal end-filters
Whilst concept A) can run independently or with an Air Conditioning System, concept B) will always
need and active air-supply or an Air Conditioning System.
The Air Conditioning System is being used when temperature and humidity control of the Cleanroom
air is required.
On the following pages the respective system variants are being described.

If the air surrounding the cleanroom is supplied from an air-conditioning system, then conditioned air
is being re-circulated via the FFUs to the Cleanroom.
Alternatively, if it is not suitable to re-circulate the air as described above, it is possible to create a so
called closed-loop system.

In combination with an Air Handling / Air-Conditioning System Fan Filter Units (FFUs) can be used.
The outside air (see pos. 7.) will be drawn not from the surrounding room, but from outside the
building.
The following picture shows a Cleanroom with a ducted air-supply system.
Instead of textile ducts, standard filter-boxes with air-grilles are being used.
