– Drying of temperature sensitive products.
– Maintaining correct humidity in storage areas.
– Protection of equipment sensitive to corrosion.
– Controlling humidity levels in museums and archives.
– Drying after water damage and drying of buildings during construction.
– Climatic improvements in damp areas.
Page 12
12 Product overview
4.3 Method of operation
The desiccant dryer operates with two air streams. A larger air stream to be dehumidied, and a smaller
air stream to exhaust the moisture out of the desiccant rotor. Both airstreams are created by one common fan which pressurises a compartment of the desiccant dryer creating two separate airstreams.
The larger air volume, the process air, passes through the slowly rotating silica gel rotor. Silica gel is a
hygroscopic material adsorbing water vapour direct from the air. When passing through the rotor the
humidity of the air is reduced, whilst the moisture content of the rotor material increases. On exiting the
rotor the dried air is introduced into the area, or the process to be dehumidied. The adsorption process
works in temperatures from -30°C to +40°C.
The smaller air volume, the reactivation air, desorbs the moisture from the silica gel rotor. This reactivation air is heated by an internal heater to a temperature of approximately+120°C. As the reactivation air
passes through the rotor, in an opposite direction to the dry air, it will decrease the moisture content of
the rotor material. The reactivation air will leave the desiccant dryer as warm, moist air, which is then
exhausted out from the building.

4.4 Product description
4.4.1 Casing
The casing is fabricated from 304 stainless steel. The top of the desiccant dryer has a top hood that can
be removed for service access to electrical and mechanical components. All duct connections to the
desiccant dryer are designed for connections to standard size spiral ducts except for the process air inlet.
4.4.2 Rotor
The desiccant dryer has a drying rotor fabricated from 82% desiccant material, 16% breglass and 2%
acryl. The rotor has a matrix of corrugated and at heat resistant sheets, which houses the Silica Gel
desiccant agent. This matrix creates a large number of axial utes through the rotor, which together builds
up an immense surface area for moisture adsorption in a small volume. The rotor is manufactured and
processed to be able to withstand moisture-saturated air without being damaged. Furthermore, the rotor
will not be damaged even if the fan or the heater for reactivation should fail during operation. The rotor
is according to ASTEM E84 re proof and achieved a ame-spread and smoke index of 0.
Rotor drive system
The slow rotation of the rotor is achieved by an electrical gear motor and a belt drive. The belt sits on
the outer rim of the rotor and is driven by a pulley on the drive motor. A adjustable belt tension device
keeps the belt in place and maintains tension to prevent belt slip. Correct operation of the drive system,
and direction of rotation can be checked by opening the top panel.
The centre hub of the rotor is equipped with ball bearings. The rotor shaft is made from stainless steel.
The complete rotor part can easily be removed and lifted as one piece out from the casing.
4.4.3 Filters
The desiccant dryer has one common air lter with G3 lter class for process- and reactivation air. This
lter primary serves to protect the components installed in the unit.
4.4.4 Fan for process- and reactivation air
The fan is a direct drive radial fan with a single phase standard motor class IP 54, ISO F. The fan is accessible for service after removing the service hood of the desiccant dryer. The exact type can be found
in the respective table in chapter 10.
4.4.5 Heater for reactivation air
The reactivation heater is of the PTC-type (Positive Temperature Control), which can not be overheated,
and gives the possibility of a stepless control for 30 - 100 % of the dehumidication capacity. This is
achieved by controlling the reactivation air volume.
Page 14
14 Product overview
4.4.6 Electrical panel
The electrical panel is located inside the desiccant dryer and is accessible through the service hood.
Switches and indications for operation are mounted at the front of the electrical panel.
4.4.7 Operation Options
Using the operation switch on the front side of the desiccant dryer, different running options can be
selected:
– 0 Dehumidier not in operation.
– 1 Dehumidier in operation mode.
– MAN Dehumidier in continuous operation.
– AUTO Automatic operation by remote humidistat or other external on/off signal.

15Installation
5 Installation
5.1 Installation and service access
The Condair DA 160 - 440 desiccant dryers are designed for indoor installation.
All components in the desiccant dryer are accessible from the top of the unit. For inspection and service,
a space of 500 mm must be left free above the desiccant dryer to accommodate for servicing of lters,
fans and rotor.
When using a mounting plate, the desiccant dryer must be put so that the rotorshaft still is horizontal
and the wet air outlet is placed low.
5.2 Duct connection for permanent installation
The DA 160 - 440 desiccant dryers can be installed in the room that should to be dehumidied or in a
separate room.
To obtain the best performance the outlets from the fans should be equipped with diffusors.
5.2.1 Wet air duct from the desiccant dryer
The wet air from the desiccant dryer should be exhausted to the outside. The duct should be as short
as possible to minimize the chance of condensation of the wet air. This duct should slope down in angle
of at least >2°, to stop any condensed water from owing back into the desiccant dryer. If the wet air
duct is extremely long, or must be installed sloping upwards from the desiccant dryer, it should have a
drainage point (2-3 mm) drilled at its lowest position.
The exhaust opening should have a coarse wire net.
A damper should be installed in the wet air duct to enable correct setting of the reactivation air volume
during commissioning.
5.2.2 Process-anddryairwiththedesiccantdryerinstalledinthedehumidiedroom
When the desiccant dryer is installed in the dehumidied room space it would normally take the process
air direct from the room without any duct system, with only a protection net for the inlet required.
The dry air outlet would normally have a duct system designed for distribution of the dry air in the building.
Page 16
16 Installation
5.2.3 Process-anddryairwiththedesiccantdryerinstalledoutsidethedehumidied
room
When the desiccant dryer is installed in a separate plant room all inlet and outlet openings are usually
ducted.
The desiccant dryer draws ambient air from the place of installation. The dry air from the desiccant dryer
can be connected for post treatment or ducted back to the dehumidied room.
The control of the reactivation and process air volume ow takes place via the on-site installation of
dampers in the wet and dry air duct.
5.2.4 Duct connection for basement installation
If the desiccant dryer should be installed in the basement it is sometimes desirable to achieve a slight
negative pressure in the space to prevent odours from penetrating up into the building. In these circumstances the reactivation air is taken directly from the basement and the wet air is exhausted out from
the basement. This method of installation will create a small negative pressure. The ducts should be
installed according to "Duct connections for permanent installation".
5.2.5 Temporary installation
With temporary installations for water damage or building drying, exible plastic ducts would normally be
used instead of the spiral duct type. The drying method differs depending on situation and construction
to be dried. The complete room could be dehumidied, or just the damaged part. For the later option
plastic sheet is used to cover the damaged area, and the dry air is supplied under the sheet. For both
options the wet air must be exhausted out from the building via exible duct, or alternatively connected
to the general exhaust ventilation system for the building.
5.3 Electrical installation
See chapter 11 – Electrical wiring diagrams.
Page 17
17Commissioning
6 Commissioning
On initial start-up, the following steps should be taken in this order:
3. Ensure that the external isolation switch is isolating the unit from the mains, or that the power plug
is disconnected.
4. Select the OFF position on the main switch (orange) at the front of the desiccant dryer.
5. Open the service hood on the top of the desiccant dryer and ensure no foreign objects are left inside
the unit or in the electrical compartment
6. Make sure the air lter is installed.
7. Rotate the fan impeller by hand and make sure it can move freely.
8. Ensure that the dry and wet air dampers are open, and that ducts are clean and free of blockages.
9. Ensure that the mains supply fuse is suitably rated (10A), and that the fuse is of a slow kind.
10. Connect the desiccant dryer to the main electrical supply by turning the isolation switch to ON, or
alternatively connect the power plug to the socket.
11. Select the MAN position on the operation switch (black) of the desiccant dryer. Switch the main
switch (orange) to the ON position for 3-4 seconds. Check that the rotor is slowly rotating, the fans
are starting, and that the orange lamp in the main switch lights up. Turn OFF the desiccant dryer.
12. Mount the service hood and ensure it seals properly to the casing.
13. The desiccant dryer is now ready for operation.
14. Start the desiccant dryer and check that the unit is operating at the correct air volumes.
15. From the factory the desiccant dryer is electrically wired in such a way that when operating in AUTO
mode, the controls operate the complete unit to start or stop. By shifting one terminal connection in
the electrical panel the operation mode can be altered to operate the fan continuously. The control
will then only operate the heater on/off, depending on the signal from the humidistat or other external
signal.

Page 19
19Maintenance
7.2 Filters
The desiccant dryer is equipped with one common lter for the process air and reactivation air. The lter
is positioned at the inlet and will clean the air prior to entering the desiccant dryer.
Intervals for cleaning or replacement of the lters will be determined by the amount of dust and particles
in the air at the installation site.
We recommend that the lter is checked at least once a month, at least for the rst year of a new installation.
CAUTION!
Never operate the desiccant dryer without the lters, as the rotor can be damaged by dust.
7.3 Rotor
The rotor is maintenance free. However should it be necessary to clean the rotor the rst choice should
be careful use of compressed air. With severe contamination, the rotor can be washed with water.
Cleaning with water is no routine matter; please contact your Condair representative.
Check the rotor bearing and the rotor surface once a year.
7.4 Electrical motors
The electrical motors are equipped with ball bearings. The bearings are designed to last the life of the
motor and therefore no maintenance is required.
Check the motors once a year for any abnormal sound.
7.5 Heater
The reactivation electric heater does not need maintenance, but should be checked twice a year for any
dust or mechanical damage to the heating rods. Clean with a soft brush, or vacuum clean with dust.
Gentle use of compressed air is another alternative.
7.6 Rotor drive belt
Check the belt tensioning at regular intervals. Adjust when needed by moving the tensioning support
wheel closer to the desiccant rotor.
