Environmental simulation in climatic chambers and wind tunnels

Dehumidifiers: It's all a question of adjustability

Best suited for the simulation of environmental conditions for tests in the automotive industry are Trotec dehumidifiers of the TTR series marked with "D", because they are so easily regulated. You would like to test the behaviour of rubber seals in dry heat? And damp cold? No problem with the Duoventic regulation.

In climatic chambers and wind tunnels three factors need to be simulated at the best possible rate: air temperature, wind strength and humidity. For the latter, the automotive industry needs dehumidifiers, which also perform well at dew points below 0°C, as well as high-performance desiccant dehumidifiers.

Desiccant dehumidifiers of the TTR series – the most economical of their kind

With our robust dehumidifiers of the TTR series climatic chambers and wind tunnels in the automotive industry are also ideally equipped: The TTR adsorption devices ensure an efficient high-capacity dehumidification. And with their internal heat recovery as well as the high level of resilience and performance of the special rotors the adsorption dryers of the TTR series are among the most economical dehumidifiers of their kind.

Models marked with "D" as in the Duoventic air volume regulation

The TTR series comprises stationary and mobile desiccant dehumidifiers. In climatic chambers and wind tunnels mostly compact mobile devices are being used. For this type of application we recommend i.a. TTR 400 D and TTR 500 D. All TTR models of type "D" as standard come not only equipped with two separate air flow ducts according to the TTR Trisorp Dual principle of operation but also with the innovative Duoventic air volume regulation. Therefore, both fans of the separate air circuits can be controlled independently via an infinitely variable electronic regulation. Thanks to Duoventic, you can always use the full potential in the climatic chamber fast and in line with demand without any conversions while at the same time configuring every climate scenario with only one device.

Drafting and test run: make use of our industrial services

For industrial customers the Trotec Group not only offers devices, but solutions. We draft the dehumidification concept for your climatic chamber or wind tunnel and test it beforehand in trial operation using mobile devices. Only after measurements have proved that the humidity level can be controlled as desired will your final solution be launched.

Make use of Trotec's best practice industrial services

Since every industrial undertaking has characteristic process flows, installations and facilities, every air treatment solution demands case-specific device configurations. All in all, the combined effects of air currents, humidity conditions and temperature fluctuations are often hard to calculate on a purely theoretical basis, e.g. in airlock areas or on conveying paths. The consequence: Unnecessary additional costs due to an overestimated demand or – even worse – solutions not working sufficiently in real life.

Upon request, we also produce customized desiccant dehumidifiers as special models

Upon request, we will readily produce tailor-made desiccant dehumidifiers as special models “made in Germany” perfectly geared to your needs, e.g.:

  • Drying hygroscopic bulk material

    Varying and too high humidity values can ruin the pourability of powders and granules – and thus entail high consequential costs. In order for hygroscopic bulk material not to go lumpy nor to block hauling paths, the entire air in the chemical and pharmaceutical production must be pre-dried. Using adsorption dryers of the TTR series that's no problem.

  • Drying after silo cleaning

    After the cleaning of storage containers and silos you have to count on them to be fully dried for new bulk material to be protected against moisture from the beginning. And since drying can be effected in a quick and economical manner, we advise decision makers from the chemical and pharmaceutical industry to consider our high-performance dryers of the TTR series.

    A suitable room climate is a prerequisite for the well-being of hotel guests. If the air in the room is too warm or humid, it appears to be stale and muggy. Often damages appear at the building structure and interior within a short period of time. Wallpaper will be dotted with mould stains, curtains and clothes as well as linen become damp and musty and – if it comes to the worst – mildew runs...

  • Dehumidification in indoor ice-skating rinks

    Due to the difference in temperature between air and the icy surface, condensation inevitably forms in every ice rink – especially when humid air keeps flowing in from outside through the refrigeration system. The solution against dripping water on the ice and against damage to property constitutes a dehumidifier. It prevents condensation in the offing.
