High-performance desiccant rotor

The desiccant rotor consists of a honeycomb structure made of fibreglass, coated with highly hygroscopic silica gel. The flutes provide an enormous internal surface area, enabling efficient and effective moisture transfer. The rotor material is silicone-free, non-flammable and -respirable and the rotors are largely maintenance-free.

Compact industrial design

Portable design with a corrosion-resistant AISI 304 stainless steel housing in a 3-hole configuration. Equipped with a combined air inlet and separate dry air and wet air outlets with circular spigot duct connections for fast and easy installation. The units come with a ready-fitted power cable, allowing immediate connection to a standard 230 V outlet for mobile or stationary use.

PTC-reactivation heater

The Condair DA 160-440 uses a PTC reactivation heater, whose self-regulating characteristics prevent overheating by adjusting internal resistance and electrical current based on its temperature. This ensures safe, reliable rotor regeneration and improves operational reliability. The integrated ampere meter simplifies commissioning and monitoring, enabling quick and accurate verification of heater performance.
