IEST RP-CC036.1 – Testing Fan Filter Units

This Recommended Practice (RP) covers laboratory methods for testing the performance of a fan filter unit (FFU). The purpose of this RP is to provide customers and suppliers of FFUs the necessary test protocols for measuring and reporting performance, excluding filter efficiency. These methods provide the means for direct comparison of units provided by different manufacturers, which may be of varying designs and have different operating features. The test methods identify test equipment and testing procedures necessary to measure volumetric airflow, electric power parameters (wattage, amperage, voltage, and power factor), available external static pressure, sound power levels, and filter airflow velocity uniformity.
