DehuTech 450

Product description

The dehumidifier is designed to meet the 

requirements of IEC protective class IP 44:

Casing

The casing is fabricated from stainless steel 

2333. The top of the dehumidifier has a top 

panel that can be removed for service access to 

electrical and mechanical components. All duct 

connections to the dehumidifier are designed for 

connections to standard size spiral ducts.

Rotor

The dehumidifier has a drying rotor fabricated 

from a desiccant material. The rotor has a matrix 

of corrugated and flat heat resistant sheets which 

houses the Silica Gel desiccant agent. This 

matrix creates a large number of axial flutes 

through the rotor, which together builds up an 

immense surface area for moisture adsorption 

in a small volume. The rotor is manufactured 

and processed to be able to withstand mois-

ture saturated air without being damaged. This 

means that the rotor can be used in conjunction 

with a pre-cooling coil. Furthermore the rotor 

will not be damaged even if the fan or the heater 

for reactivation should fail during operation. The 

rotor is incombustible and non flammable. 
The slow rotation of the rotor is achieved by an 

electrical gear motor and a belt drive. The belt 

sits on the outer rim of the rotor and is driven by 

a pulley on the drive motor. An adjustable belt 

tension device keeps the belt in place and main-

tains tension to prevent belt slip. Correct opera-

tion of the drive system, and direction of rotation 

can be checked by opening the top panel.
The centre hub of the rotor is equipped with ball 

bearings. The rotor shaft is made from stain-

less steel. The complete rotor part can easily be 

removed and lifted as one piece out from the 

casing.

Filter

The dehumidifier has two separate filters. One in 

the process air inlet, and one in the reactivation 

air inlet.

Fans for process- and reactiva-

tion air

The fans are direct driven radial fans with single 

phase standard motors class IP 54, ISO F. The 

complete fan assembly is easily removed and 

lifted out from the casing.

Heater for reactivation air

The reactivation heater is of the PTC-type 

(Positive Temperature Control), which can not 

be overheated, and gives the possibility of a 

stepless control for 30 - 100 % of the dehumidi-

fication capacity. This is achieved by controlling 

the reactivation air volume.

Electrical panel

The electrical components is located inside the 

dehumidifier and are accessible through the top 

panel. Switches and indications for operation are 

mounted at the front of the electrical panel.

Operation options

Using the operation switch on the front side of 

the dehumidifier, different running options can 

be selected:
0     

Dehumidifier not in operation.

1     

Dehumidifier in operation mode.

MAN   

Dehumidifier in continuous   

     

operation.

AUTO Automatic operation by remote 

     

humidistat, or other external   

     

on/off signal.
