Protection of grounded aircraft

How does it work?

• Packaged system that can be delivered directly to site
• Flexible - units available for purchase, or short or long term rental.

Protection of turbines
For protection of smaller turbines a so-called ”fresh air solution” is recommended. Dry air from the dehumidifier is lead to the turbine and the wet air exits the turbine into the open.	For bigger turbines the wet air is returned to the dehumidifier’s dry air inlet, in a so-called “return air system”. This principle will increase both energy efficiency and dehumidification capacity.
Protection of aircraft interior
The dehumidifier is placed centrally in the cabin. By means of the extraction fan in the dehumidifier, the humid air from the cabin enters the dehumidifier and the humidity is absorbed by the desiccant wheel (rotor).	The dry air leaving the rotor is distributed within the cabin via flexible ducts along the aisle, typically under the seats. This allows for efficient protection of all parts of the cabin. The in- and outlet for the air used for the regeneration of the rotor can be lead to the open air via an opening in a window, e.g. in one of the doors of the aircraft.
