About the Heating Elements:
Stacking Fins
Introduction:
Drymatic Boost Bar is an Adaptable Heat Drying System designed to reduce drying times. The machine is placed in front of an
air mover to heat airflow in a drying environment and can also be used with Drymatic Wall & Floor Systems to effectively
target dry specific areas of water damage. The addition of controlled heat increases drying performance in a water damage
project; it also helps to enhance the performance of conventional drying equipment, such as refrigerant dehumidifiers, where
temperatures are often below optimum operating conditions.
How it works:
Raising the temperature of the water damaged materials increases their vapour pressure and subsequently gives the material
more potential for evaporation, resulting in more efficient drying. The DBK Drymatic Boost Bar has an intelligent control
system that regulates its output to ensure that the temperature stays within the dialled-in range by varying the power of the
heating device.
The Drymatic Boost Bar, when combined with a Drymatic Wall & Floor Accessory System or Drymatic Boost Bar Attachments,
becomes an extremely effective target drying solution. Target drying focuses the heat energy on a specific area of water
damage, allowing the technician to remain in full control over what materials are dried and to what temperatures they are
exposed. In many cases a restoration project will include a variety of different materials that need to be dried in different
ways; target drying enables the controlled application of heat and airflow which results in vastly improved drying times.
Features:
Adds up to 2.2kW (1.8kW for Australian or Scandinavian Models, 1.4kW/4,780 BTUs for USA models) of heat energy
into the room to reduce drying time.
Three intelligently controlled self regulating PTC heater banks that raise room temperature up to a maximum of 50°
C (122°F).
Touch screen controller which displays incoming and outgoing temperature, kWh and hours run.
Airflow detection and power regulation to ensure safe operation whilst adding maximum power in any event - CE/
UL Approved. (See about PTC Elements Page)
Bi-directional design can be operated with any standard styled air mover with the machine either flat or on its side.
Allows users to attach a huge range of Drymatic Wall and Floor System mats and accessories to quickly and
efficiently dry small areas.
Compact, lightweight and rugged construction which is stackable for easy transportation and storage.
Fixed cord with built in cord wrap for plug in and go operation.
Drymatic Boost Bar uses PTC heating elements to provide efficient and controllable heat. These
elements self-regulate their power output depending on the volume of airflow passed over them
and also the elements operating temperature. This means that if airflow is restricted the heater will
continue to function but with reduced power; protecting both the Boost Bar and the material being
targeted. In the event that airflow is completely lost the system will shut the elements down.
The 6 elements you see through the grill (5 for Australian/Scandinavian models) are divided into 3
banks of elements which the software ramps up and down in order to 1) Gradually increase the
heat and 2) Control the temperature of the room.
The elements are electrically insulated and safe to use in humid/dusty conditions however they can
get hot and should never be touched. If the display is showing all three banks running but the pow-
er output is less than expected check for any restrictions in airflow or move the air mover closer to
ensure that full power can be reached.
WARNING! - NEVER TRY TO REACH THROUGH THE GRILLS OR TOUCH THE ELEMENTS
