Air filtration solutions company GE Technology Inc. (Getek, Tainan, Taiwan) announces the launch of the ACU portable air clean unit. ACU combines high-efficiency particulate control with customizable molecular filtration in a self-contained mobile unit, offering a solution for indoor air quality and controlled-environment contamination control in both commercial and industrial settings.

Unlike conventional portable air cleaners limited to HEPA filtration and generic carbon media, the ACU offers ULPA-class particulate options for beyond-HEPA performance and refillable, site-specific Chemsorb chemisorptive blends. This combination targets airborne molecular contaminants (AMC) that standard design/absorbents cannot address, while reducing consumable waste and supporting ESG objectives.

ACU’s mobile design enables fast relocation to address localized contamination wherever it occurs. Air enters from the bottom, moves vertically through the unit and exits from the top for efficient air distribution. Four casters, including four locking wheels, enable easy movement and secure placement. Configurations can range from general ambient air cleaning to ultra-high filtration for clean rooms and critical production areas.

ACU supports HEPA H13 and optional ULPA stages, delivering up to 99.999% particle removal efficiency at MPPS. This makes it suitable for occupational health protection, infection-risk reduction and process-critical cleanliness.

The lower chamber houses Getek Chemsorb media in refillable trays (Chemsorb-R), pleated (Chemsorb-P) or sponge (Chemsorb-S) formats. Depending on the blend, Chemsorb targets acids, bases, molecular gases, VOCs, ozone, reactive compounds and boron-/phosphorus-containing gases.

Getek reports that the ACU system has application across various sectors, including commercial and public spaces; industrial and manufacturing; and clean room and process-critical environments. Getek’s TAFS Engineered Approach combines on-site diagnostics, molecular-level contamination analysis and custom media manufacturing to match each facility’s contamination profile, optimizing performance and managing pressure drop at the chosen duty point.

Manufactured under ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 management systems. Chemsorb media/filters available with performance testing per ANSI/ASHRAE 145.1. Materials are available in RoHS/REACH-compliant selections.
