Luftbefeuchtung in der Elektronikindustrie Das international tätige Hightech-Unternehmen Frequentis ist Weltmarktführer im Bereich der Sprachvermittlungssysteme für die Flugsicherung. Als Frequentis 2006 seine drei Standorte in einem neuen Firmengebäude in Wien zusammenführte, bekam das Thema Luftfeuchte eine hohe Dringlichkeit: Im ersten Winter haben wir eine relative Luftfeuchte von zeitweise unter 20% gemessen, erinnert sich Kurt Feuchtinger, Leiter Facility Management. Eine zu geringe Luftfeuchte erhöht die Gefahr von elektrostatischen Entladungen und Folgeschäden an Bauteilen und Geräten. Bei Frequentis in Wien gehört eine Direktraum-Befeuchtung seit 2008 zum ESD-Schutzprogramm. Über 50 Hochdruckdüsen-Luftbefeuchter vom Typ TurboFog sind direkt in den Montage-, Produktions- und Lagerhallen im Einsatz.

The John F. Kennedy Space Center is NASA's space station on Merritt Island in Florida. All manned space flights of the United States were launched from December 1968 until July 2011 &mdash first the Apollo missions and from 1981 until 2011 the space shuttles, some of which also returned. The total area of the Kennedy Space Center comprises almost 570 square kilometers, in which 17,000 people work. Hundreds of thousands of visitors flock to the KSC Visitor Complex every year. Since June 2013, the space shuttle Atlantis has tallied among the highlights of the visitor center that can be admired as a museum piece.Condair's RS steam humidifier ensures optimal indoor humidity.

The Air Traffic Services Centre (ATSC) in Melbourne is one of two major air traffic centres in Australia. This centre manages the airspace in southern Australia across to Indonesia and even the South Pole. This critical site is open 24/7, 365 days per year. It requires an optimal environment for staff to remain healthy and comfortable, as well as maintaining conditions for the advanced equipment to run effectively. Resistive steam humidification systems were installed to ensure that humidity levels are maintained all-year-round.

Measured by passenger volume of roughly 84 million passengers annually, the Beijing Capital Airport is the second biggest airport in the world. The massive steel and glass construction at Terminal 3 was designed by Sir Norman Foster. It covers an area of 1.3 million m2, making it the biggest building in the world. The architecture of the airport tries to combine elements of traditional Chinese architecture with modern ones. The bright red columns and the dull golden roof are meant to evoke the imperial palaces and temples of Beijing. Triangular skylights allow the terminal to appear bright and airy and optimal humidity is maintained by the hybrid humidifiers by Condair.

Terma saves 150,000 kWh annually Terma is an international manufacturer of high-tech equipment for customers within the aviation, defence, space and monitoring system industries. Condair's humidification solution provides free evaporative cooling while offering Terma considerable energy savings. Broad product range meets strict requirements Terma requires excellent air quality and accurate humidity control in its production areas, which e.g.involves protection against electrostatic discharge that may potentially interfere with processes and damage electronic components. Energy savings through evaporative coolingAnother focus area for Terma is the company's energy consumption. Terma has opted for a humidification solution with evaporative cooling for direct room humidification &ndash the absolutely least expensive alternative compared with other humidification systems. Wherever possible in the production areas, Terma is gradually switching to Condair's evaporative cooling and humidification solutions, which has contributed to considerable energy savings. In less urgent areas, or where previously chosen ventilation solutions exist, Terma continues to use Condair's steam humidifiers, which represent the appropriate solution for these particular purposes. Advantages &bull Saves more than 150,000 kWh annually&bull Reduces electrostatic discharges (ESD)&bull Utilises free evaporative cooling&bull Ensures compliance with product tolerances&bull Increases employee well-being System specifications &bull Pumps: MLP 300 with RO&bull Modules: 7 x Princess 2&bull Capacity: 250 l/h&bull Installed: 2013 "An energy seminar at Condair opened our eyes to new opportunities of reducing our energy consumption through evaporative cooling. At the same time, our indoor climate is now considerably better, which of course is popular with the employees." Terma Facilities, Gert Jørgensen

Mit 33 Millionen Fluggästen jährlich ist der Flughafen Domodedovo, gemessen am Passagieraufkommen, der größte von drei Flughäfen nahe der russischen Hauptstadt Moskau. Bereits 1954 geplant und erst 1962 fertiggestellt, war Domodedovo lange Zeit kleiner und deutlich geringer frequentiert als die Flughäfen Sheremetyevo und Vnukovo. 1967 wurde eine zweite Start- und Landebahn errichtet. 1980 erhielt der Flughafen internationalen Status und 1992 wurde ein separates Frachtterminal in Betrieb genommen. 2015 begann ein umfassender Ausbau und eine architektonische Neugestaltung des Passagierterminals mit einer imposanten Glasfassade. Hier steht den Fluggästen mit 135.000 m2 nun deutlich mehr Raum zur Verfügung sowie eine gesunde und behagliche Luftfeuchter durch Hybrid-Luftbefeuchter DL von Condair.
