In many indoor environments, the capacity and efficiency of the installed ventilation system is not sufficient to maintain good and healthy air quality. Airborne pollutants and high particle levels can have a negative effect on people, products and processes. Freestanding air cleaning solutions are a cost and energy efficient addition to complement the existing ventilation system.
Our range of larger air cleaners consists of four powerful and efficient air cleaning solutions, where each unit is configured with the filter and accessories that are optimal for your needs.
All QleanAir air cleaners have mechanical filtration, automatic air flow control and regular service. This ensures constant air flow and efficiency over time.
FS 70 – a flexible air cleaner with a wide range of applications
Suitable for dusty industrial and warehouse environments, as well as for offices and public operations. Can be used to clean air in premises as well as to provide processes with filtered air. QleanAir's best-selling air purifier with a large customer base across Europe.
FS 70 FG (Food Grade) – for the beverage and food industry
This uses the same filtration technology as FS 70 but with design and details adapted to the hygiene requirements in the food industry. Stainless steel chassis, food-grade seals and gaskets, as well as smooth and rounded edges.
FS 70 HEPA – air purification in hospitals and care environments
FS 70 with HEPA 14 filters - the filter class commonly used to filter out bacteria, viruses and other airborne contaminants in sensitive medical environments. Mainly aimed at health care environments with high standards of cleanliness, mobility and low noise levels, but also suitable for other businesses in need of HEPA-filtered air.
FS 90 – an extra powerful air cleaner for large spaces
The FS 90 is one of the most powerful air cleaners on the market, with an air flow of up to 10,000 m3/hour. Suitable for large halls and spaces, e.g. warehouses, logistics centers, distribution centers, production facilities and other similar industrial environments. Also available in a roof-hung version.

The Challenge
Many industrial air cleaners may be efficient for other industries; even made from high-quality parts, BUT not compliant towards the food industry demands. Many existing systems with pockets and crevices in their design are difficult to clean because of dust and particles being collected, as well as not being fully sealed. This can compromise the functionality and safety of the system.
The air handling unit, QleanAir FS 70 FG (Food Grade), is a complete system redesign with an emphasis on hygiene within food production; enhancing the safety, quality, and efficiency of operations, and preservation of food.

Why a dedicated air handling, filtration system for the food industry?
A major point of consideration for the design of this unit was the Hazard Analysis & Critical Control Points (HACCP).
The food industry is a unique entity of its own with many different factors contributing to the health of its products, people, packaging, and operations. One of them being air quality. Anything from premature spoilage/staleness of food, to the health of workers and consumers from tainted food, are on the minds of every food plant and manufacturer.
We have spent months consulting with plant managers at top food manufacturers and quality assurance professionals/risk assessment specialists within different sectors of food production and processing, finding out what has been missing in the market in terms of their strict demands, expectations, and wish list that they would want in an ideal, air handling system.
What we found out was that current systems in the market, even though they may be adequate at filtering air, were not optimized for the food industry. – Some even contributing to dangerous conditions.
Many systems were permeable in some way or another, Inconsistent filtering efficiency, hard to clean and disinfect, clogged often, not suitable for sensitive areas of production, did not come with an included, regularly scheduled and/or customizable service plan, cleaning chemicals showed signs of corrosion on the units, etc. – Essentially, an accident waiting to happen.
We dedicated months upon months of completely redesigning our already award-winning technology within our best-selling, industrial air cleaner, the QleanAir FS 70, to solve all of these challenges and more, in helping future proof safety and operations for food manufacturers.

The FS 70 FG’s unique design, along with its service plan makes it a complete solution for the food industry. |
Which certifications does the FS 70 FG have?
For products that process food, there are strict standards and clear guidelines on design and material choices to avoid hygienic hazards; however, there are no strict product hygiene standards for equipment in the facilities that will not process the food, handle ingredients or provide freshwater or ventilation. For these products, according to the EG852/2004 directive, the food producer must do their own hygiene risk analysis as part of the food production facility.
What type of filtration and filters does the FS 70 FG use?
Each unit can be completely customized in terms of the type of filters/

The QleanAir FS 70 FG has a large intake on the front of the unit to maximize intake volume, and to reduce the risk of involuntary blockage. For safety reasons, the intake is protected by a screen/grid. The filters are placed right behind the inlet grid to avoid cavities where particles and contaminants may accumulate over time.
Using a multi-stage filtration technique, airborne particles and contaminants are effectively separated from the air. The QleanAir FS 70 FG is equipped with a set of filters adapted to your unique needs. Right from installation, we make sure that we live up to our promises through measurements of particle reduction with monitoring of the units.
After the air is purified from airborne particles and contaminants, it is returned to the room for optimal recirculation. Special accesories are available as add-ons to create a more flexible solution.
