HOW IT WORKS Your Pridiom Desiccant dehumidifier removes moisture using a continu- ously rotating moisture absorbing wheel/rotor (This ‘Desiccant Rotor’ is liter- ally a ‘honeycomb’ of extremely hygroscopic membranes). A highly efficient yet low noise fan draws air into the unit (Process Air) and forces it through a portion of the absorbent rotor.
It is encases in a galvanized steel ring and turns on high quality sealed ball bearing units. REGEN HEATER BANK The PGD970DES uses a ceramic PTC type regen heater. PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) heaters are base on a semi-conductor that changes resist- ance as it becomes hotter.
