Fan Filter Extraction Module
Ductless Extraction & Filtration

Fan Filter Extraction Module

The extraction engine, not the enclosure. Connect the FFU to a process, a bench, a hood or an enclosure, and it pulls the vapours and particulates through carbon and HEPA filtration and returns clean air, with no ducting to atmosphere.

Filtered local extraction, added to what you already have. Processes and equipment, capture hoods and extraction arms, small enclosures and weighing points, soldering and rework, and adhesives and resin work.

What it is

A filtration engine you add to a job, not a box you work in

Most extract solutions are the enclosure: a cupboard, a table, a workstation you do the work inside. The Fan Filter Module is the other half. It is the fan and filter unit itself, so you can put filtered local exhaust exactly where the fumes are made, without rebuilding the bench around it.

Connect it to the process, hood, arm or enclosure that needs extracting. The module draws the contaminated air in, passes it through the filters, and returns clean air to the room. Because it recirculates, there is no ducting to atmosphere to install, and being on castors it moves to wherever the next job is.

  • ✓Removes chemical vapours and particulates from the process in use
  • ✓Prevents their release into the surrounding laboratory air
  • ✓Ductless and recirculating, with no ducting to atmosphere required
  • ✓Portable or freestanding, so it goes where the extraction is needed

Standard on every module

A complete, self-contained extract and filtration unit.

How it fits in

Extract from where the work happens

The module gives you filtered local exhaust ventilation you can attach to almost anything that gives off vapour or dust. Three common ways it is put to work.

Onto a process or machine

Take the fumes off a piece of equipment or a process as they are produced, an oven, an evaporator or a small process rig, so they never reach the operator or the room.

Behind a hood or arm

Drive a capture hood or a flexible extraction arm at the bench, pulling smoke, mist or dust away from the point of work through the module's filters.

To an enclosure or point

Provide the extraction for a small enclosure, weighing point or downdraft station, giving it filtered local exhaust without a fixed ducted system.

Because it is ductless and recirculating, there is no ducting to atmosphere to design or install. Add the module, connect the source, switch on.

Configurations

Single or double fan

Choose the module to suit how much you need to move. Both use the same carbon, HEPA and prefilter set, and custom builds are available where a specific duty is needed.

FC-SFFU

Single Fan Filter Module

A single-fan module for a single process, hood or extract point. The standard choice where one source needs filtered local extraction.

FC-DFFU

Double Fan Filter Module

A twin-fan module for a greater extract duty, or to serve more than one point. The step up when a single fan will not move enough air for the job.

Both versions are supplied portable on castors and can be used freestanding. Carbon and HEPA filtration with a prefilter, matched to the substances in use. Tell us the process, the substances and the extract duty and we will recommend the right module and media. Full specification and datasheet available on request.

Where it's used

Wherever a process needs local extraction

Anywhere a job gives off vapour, odour or dust and a full fume cupboard would be more than you need, the module gives you filtered local extraction on the spot.

Process & equipment extraction

Take vapours and particulates off a specific process or machine as they are produced, keeping them out of the operator's breathing zone and the room.

Capture hoods & arms

Provide the suction and filtration behind a capture hood or flexible extraction arm at a bench, drawing fumes from the point of production.

Soldering & electronics rework

Extract solder and flux fumes at the bench during rework and assembly, without a fixed ducted system or a full cupboard.

Adhesives, resins & solvents

Control the odours and vapours from bonding, casting and small-scale solvent work, with carbon media chosen for what you use.

Enclosures & weighing points

Serve as the extraction behind a small enclosure, weighing station or downdraft point, giving it filtered local exhaust as a module rather than a build.

Odour & nuisance control

Where the issue is persistent odour rather than a serious hazard, the carbon filter removes the smell as well as the vapour at source.

Filtration

Match the filter to the process

The module takes a main filter chosen for what you are extracting, in carbon, HEPA, or a carbon and HEPA combination, with a prefilter capturing coarse particulate first. Tell us the substances and we will specify the right media.

Key features

Built to drop into a job

Self-contained extract engine

Fan and filters in one unit, so it provides the extraction and the filtration together, ready to connect to your source.

Top inlet connection

An inlet spigot on the unit takes the connection from your process, hood, arm or enclosure, so setting it up is a matter of connecting the source.

Carbon, HEPA & prefilter

A prefilter captures coarse particulate, then carbon and HEPA media handle the vapours and fine particulates for what you are extracting.

Single or double fan

Pick the single-fan FC-SFFU for one source, or the double-fan FC-DFFU for a greater duty or more than one point.

Portable or freestanding

On castors, so the module moves to wherever the extraction is needed, and stands wherever you need it to.

Ductless, recirculating

Contaminants are filtered and clean air is returned to the room, so there is no ducting to atmosphere to design or install.
