American Air Filter International will be joining Innovatrix as Silver Sponsors of our upcoming event, Constructing Semiconductor FAB Summit: Advances in Planning, Design and Engineering, taking place on June 11-12, 2025 in Austin, Texas, USA.
AAF International clean air products and systems offer the most comprehensive clean air solutions available in the world. Their products are the industry benchmarks for quality and performance, from simple roughing filters to air pollution control, to gas containment removal, to the highest efficiency filters used in the most stringent clean environments.
AAF provides clean air innovation that helps control particulates and airborne molecular contamination. Technology and control at the molecular level are critical to success, they design the clean air innovation needed to help you take more command over the production environment.
Boron-free and chemically inert filter media limit off-gassing that can damage microelectronics. Long-lasting, high-efficiency HEPA filtration systems provide critical control of particulates and can help reduce energy use and labour costs. Highly effective filtration solutions control airborne molecular contamination (AMC) in critical process areas. AAF offers the clean air solutions and insights needed to help keep the microelectronics industry moving forward.
AAF International can help semiconductors and microelectronics manufacturers reduce the spread of airborne molecular contaminants by combining high-quality prefilters and HEPA filters to help control the spread of AMC in cleanrooms. Highly efficient AstroSorb filters remove all classes of AMC from cleanroom air. Their products also resist handling damage due to their polymer-based filter media, such as AAF’s eFRM and ePTFE, offering more tensile strength and abrasion resistance than traditional glass filters.
AAF’s alternatives to standard filter media offer advantages for the cleanroom environment and help eliminate off-gassing concerns. These advanced media are boron-free, so they won’t release boron gas that can cause a film on wafers. Filters like the MEGAcel l eFRM and MEGAcel ll ePTFE are also chemically inert and hydrophobic, helping make them resistant to water and chemicals in the airstream. Their durability can minimise damage during the handling and installation process. Unlike V-bank HEPA filters, MEGAcel l filters can be scanned for potential leaks. They’re also more durable than traditional glass filters, so they can hold up to normal shipping, storage and installation. Their rugged design not only helps protect against leaks, but it can also help reduce the inventory needed for filter changeouts.
Their industry-leading products include:
- AstroFan™ EC FFU: The AstroFan EC FFU is whisper-quiet and can be networked and controlled for increased ease and efficiency. Industry-leading low filter resistance and our rigorous in-house testing ensure system integrity and economy.
- AstroHood® S-III: The AstroHood S-III is a disposable, ducted HEPA/ULPA supply terminal module with a minipleat filter pack that is individually tested for leak-free performance. The light, low-profile design is built to customer specifications for critical applications.
- AstroSorb®-B: The AstroSorb-B is a box-style chemical filter designed to remove airborne molecular contamination (AMC) in makeup air units (MAUs) outside air conditioning (OAC) units. Available in all standard sizes, in box-type or single header frames, the AstroSorb-B uses proprietary chemical filtration media to target specific AMC or multiple AMC in semiconductor and microelectronic manufacturing cleanrooms.
