Use of WS4 ES for suction drying
The Corroventa WS4 ES, as earlier described, developed and intended for use during suction drying of
layered constructions. As this, foremost, is a matter of drying material, the process is preferably
assisted by an adsorption dryer as it creates a better
Δ
x, a bigger difference in water contents
between in- and outgoing air, than a condensing dryer does which increases the speed of the drying
process.
To achieve circulation, movement of air, through the construction, the adsorption dryer is used in
parallel with a turbine installed to draw air from the construction creating an underpressure that
makes ambient air processed by the dryer enter it through drilled holes, gaps by the walls etc.
Particularly in the beginning of the process the turbine normally pulls free water from the
construction and this is where the need for a WS4 ES water separator arises. The system inlet is
through hose/hose system connected to the construction and the outlet is connected to the turbine
so that all air from the construction passes the filter before it reaches the turbine. This way, the
water is collected allowing its disposal to be controlled and particles and dust gather in the filters.
While protecting the turbine from water and dust related damages, naturally the quality of the air
that is released from the turbine at suitable point outside the area to be dried is also significantly
improved.
