-> Customer needs:

  • Limit the appearance of frost, ice on the floor and the walls of the cold room
  • Reduce refrigeration energy consumption by spacing defrosting
  • Reduce operating costs (reduction of damage and failure)
  • Limit the intake of humidity from the outside and dry the air to prevent condensation
  • Reduce the risk of accidents and slipping
  • Maintain the quality of the packaging and the readability of bar codes

-> Solutions brought by DESSiCA :

Produits

  • Supply of an air dehydration system by silica-gel desiccant wheel type DT-1500 ICF
  • The installation was carried out inside the cold room at an operating temperature of -22 ° C to treat 1500m3 / h of air.
  • The regeneration air is taken from the fresh quay at + 5 ° C and the humid air is discharged into the attic.
  • The installation was fitted with a clock to stop operation at night and on weekends in order to optimize energy consumption.
  • Dehydrators working on negative DESSICA atmospheres have a particularly low consumption (6.1 kW).

Installation

  • The installation is made to measure with a duct routing adapted to the environment of the room.
  • The machine is positioned high to facilitate the movement of forklifts to limit the bulk.
  • The installation is quick and without substantial work (2 days of installation) under usual operating conditions (temperature and storage maintained).

Support an services

  • Technical solution with low maintenance requirements apart from changing air filters 1 to 2 times a year
  • Desiccant wheel life : 80% minimum yield after 10 years (subject to proper use)
