Benefits
Maintaining ideal conditions in conveyor systems requires precise humidity control. Fluctuations can affect product quality and process reliability.
Prevents adhesion
Avoids materials sticking to conveyor belts or rollers due to high humidity
Enhances safety
Reduces the risk of slippage or malfunction caused by moisture on conveyor systems
Stable quality
Keeps conditions stable for consistent product quality
Dehumidification for Conveyor Technology
Preventing corrosion on conveyor systems
Iron does not rust in dry air. When water is present, the oxygen in the air reacts with the iron. This reaction produces iron hydroxides and oxides. These substances build up on the surface as rust. Unlike aluminium, the rusting of iron does not stop and will continue until the iron is completely damaged.
Keeping bulk material pourable
High or fluctuating humidity can severely reduce the flowability of bulk materials, especially powders or granules. In chemical and pharmaceutical production,
pre-dehumidifying the air prevents sticking or lump formation during transport. Modern adsorption dryers ensure reliable material flow from silo to storage, maintain processing quality, and reduce cleaning costs.

Preventing general cargo from adhering to conveyor belts
A consistent, smooth production flow is key to process quality. Without sufficient dehumidification, products may stick to conveyor belts or clump, disrupting operations. Intelligent dehumidification solutions help food manufacturers maintain optimal process control.
Use cases
Anti-static and ESD prevention
Low humidity increases static build-up because dry air is an insulator, making electrostatic discharge (ESD) more likely. Maintaining 40–60% relative humidity helps dissipate charges and significantly reduces ESD risk.
Prevent condensation and mould
By combining a professional ventilation system with the Condair DA adsorption dryer, it is possible to achieve optimal results in preventing condensation and mould.
Humidification solutions for dust and odour reduction
Humidification systems provide an effective means of meeting required limits, improving process flows and safeguarding the health of employees in many industries that produce significant dust emissions.
