Filter Fan Units
The future has begun – install it 
We have designed and developed the filter fan units (FFU) from Nicotra Gebhardt to exactly meet the requirements of perfectly functioning clean rooms. The “heart“ of the FFU is the motor-impeller-unit. All components such as the air inlet nozzle, the impeller, the motor and the respective commutation unit for actuation of the motor are exactly matched to each other in every detail and therefore work in perfect harmony with each other in joint interaction ideally. And it is also a matter of: Solutions according to need for controlling and monitoring the FFU networks ensure simply operation: Filter Fan Units made by Nicotra Gebhardt are available
- as standard or customized versions
- for standard and customized ceiling grids
- for different filter and grid sizes
- as top load or bottom load versions
- for liquid or gasket seal systems
- for various air flows and pressure drops
- with minimal vibration and audible noise emissions
- with an external rotor motor system
- speed variation via BUS or supply voltage
- for various control systems
The new RHP MultiEvo
The practical advantages
As simple as it is ingenious: The new RHP MultiEvo houses new, unique outlet guide systems with spiral geometries. Designed for perfect interaction, the impeller, motor, and integrated electronic components of the RHP MultiEvo exceed greatly the energy savings of any other traditional EC filter fan unit.
- New technology: Aerodynamic air guides optimise flow conditions
- Excellent energy savings: Over 60% efficiency thanks to the interaction of the best components
- Optimised performance range: Considerable increase to pressure for the same maximum speed and power requirements
- Considerably quieter: Noise levels up to 4 dB lower
- Air distribution: Maintained high level of uniformity
- Reduced housing height: Flatter for greater space savings

Simple handling: Controlling and monitoring your FFU networks
The core element of the system solutions we developed are the control centres for parameterisation and monitoring of your FFU networks on the basis of various RS485 interfaces (G-bus/Modbus RTU). We can optionally offer you three different components for actuation according to requirements:
- PC control centre for actuation of up to 500 FFUs per Ethernet RS485 Gateway
- Handheld FANCommander 100 for actuation of up to 100 FFUs.
- Mini control centre FANCommander 200 for actuation of up to 200 FFUs (new as of Quarter 4/2014).
- New design – New software and hardware features suitable for assembly on the wall or installation in a switch cabinet.
