FAN FILTER UNIT
A fan filter unit includes a plurality of fan motors, a plurality of detectors, a total controller, and a filter. Each of the fan motors includes a fan and a motor. The total controller performs a feedback control to the respective fan motors so that the detected rotating speeds are identical with a set rotating speed, based on rotating speeds detected by the detectors. When one detected rotating speed value by any of the detectors is smaller than the other detected rotating speed value by the other detector, the total controller performs a tuning control of rotating speed so that a rotating speed of the other fan motor is adjusted to the slower rotating speed of the fan motor.
