Operating Principle

Adsorption Technology

AD series units operate on an adsorption principle using two separate air streams. Process air passes through the silica gel rotor; the silica gel absorbs water vapour from the air, drying it. As the rotor slowly turns, regeneration air is directed in the opposite direction: heated to +100°C by electric heaters, this airstream strips the absorbed moisture from the rotor, restoring its initial adsorption capacity. The moisture-laden regeneration air is then discharged to the outside.

01
Process Air Inlet

Humid air passes through a G4 filter and is directed to the silica gel rotor; the fan drives the airstream using negative pressure.

02
Adsorption

The silica gel rotor adsorbs water vapour from the process air; the dried airstream is delivered to the process or conditioned space.

03
Regeneration

PTC electric heaters raise regeneration air temperature to ~100°C; this hot airstream passes through the rotor in the opposite direction, stripping and expelling moisture.

04
Continuous Cycle

The rotor slowly rotates between adsorption and regeneration zones, providing uninterrupted dehumidification.

Technical Construction
