WHAT IS DESSICANT ROTOR?
The desiccant rotor is fabricated as a matrix of corrugated and flat heat resistant sheet which houses the desiccant material (usually the silica gel agent). The matrix creates a large number of axis flutes through rotor, which has a good binding and it gives an immense surface area contained within a small volume for moisture adsorption. The rotor is manufactured and processed to withstand the moisture saturated air
PRINCIPLE OF DESICCANT DEHUMIDIFIER
- The dehumidifier consists of a desiccant rotor (which consists of desiccants with high affinity for water) which is rotated at a particular low speed (RPH) by a small gear drive motor.
- The dehumidifier is divided into process and reactivation segments, any portion of the rotor keeps moving towards the process and reactivation segments simultaneously. Both the segments are sealed by high pressure silicon seals.
- The process air (from room or ambient) is drawn by a blower through the larger segment which loses its moisture to the desiccants in the rotor which is called adsorption and goes out as dry air.
- Another stream of ambient air which is preheated/heated to higher temperature (to reduce the RH) in the reactivation side is drawn in opposite direction by another blower to pass through the reactivation segment.
- The moisture laden portion of the rotor pass through the reactivation zone where the moisture from the rotor is physically removed which is called desorption and vented out to the atmosphere.
- The regenerated (unsaturated) portion of desiccant rotor will again enter the process zone to adsorb moisture.
- The cycle thus continues and the required RH will be maintained in the room or in the process.
