PATENTED DESICCANT ROTOR
The Desiccant Rotor is the heart of the dehumidifier. It is an array of specially
absorbent membranes arranged as a series of corrugations (as shown in the
cut-away image) to give a vast surface area making it an extremely efficient. It is
encased in a galvanized steel ring and turns on high quality sealed ball bearing
units.
REGEN HEATER BANK
The dehumidifier uses a ceramic PTC type regen heater. PTC (Positive
Temperature Coefficient) heaters are based on a semi-conductor that changes
resistance as it becomes hotter. The semi-conductor is designed so that it’s
resistance rises rapidly at a predesignated temperature, thus it maintains this
temperature across a wide range of operational conditions.
This characteristic means that the heating element can never over heat to
hazardous temperatures, even if the regen airflow is completely blocked.
FAN SYSTEM
The dehumidifier uses a patented "RadiCal" backward curved fan unit, this is a
highly effective yet quiet system. It is designed to give a good balance of airflows
for both ‘Process’ and ‘Regen’ airflows.
