The difference between FFU and high-efficiency air outlets in the laboratory

The difference between FFU and high-efficiency air outlets in the laboratory

FFU and high-efficiency air outlets In the laboratory environment, to ensure the clean filtration results of the laboratory, the air supply system plays a vital role. At present, the commonly used air supply equipment in the laboratory mainly includes FFU (fan filter unit) and high-efficiency air outlets. There are certain differences in the air supply method and effect of these two devices.

First, FFU, that is, a fan filter unit, is an independent air supply unit, usually composed of a fan, a filter, and a shell. The main function of FFU is to deliver filtered air into the laboratory working area through the airflow generated by the fan. Due to its structure and working principle, FFU can provide high air circulation efficiency and filtration effect to ensure the cleanliness of the air inside the laboratory. In addition, FFU can also be combined with multiple units as needed to meet the space and air supply requirements of different laboratories.

Secondly, a high-efficiency air outlet, as the name suggests, is an air outlet with a high-efficiency filtration function. High-efficiency air outlet is usually installed on the ceiling of the laboratory. Compared with FFU, the main difference between high-efficiency air outlets is that they use a higher level of air filter inside, such as HEPA (high-efficiency air filter) or ULPA (ultra-high-efficiency air filter). This enables the high-efficiency air supply outlet to filter out tiny particles and harmful substances in the air more effectively while providing air supply, thus ensuring the air quality inside the laboratory.

In the laboratory, there are also differences in the use scenarios and effects of FFU and high-efficiency air supply outlets. Since FFU has a high air circulation efficiency, it is generally suitable for laboratory environments that require a high degree of cleanliness, such as biological laboratories, chemical laboratories, etc. High-efficiency air supply outlets are more suitable for laboratories with extremely high requirements for air quality, such as clean rooms, precision instrument laboratories, etc. In these occasions, high-efficiency air supply outlets can provide a purer air environment to ensure the accuracy and reliability of experimental results

In summary, the difference in air supply between FFU and high-efficiency air supply outlets in the laboratory is mainly reflected in air supply efficiency and filtering effect. According to the specific needs and application scenarios of the laboratory, choosing the right air supply equipment is the key to ensuring experimental safety and accurate results.
