INTRODUCTION
Designed for a wide range of applications, the BD80-XE is a rugged, industrial
unit, which utilizes an energy-efficient compressor and a compact portable
design to provide easy efficient drying.
The BD80-XE has a number of special features:
• High efficiency rotary compressor
• Ebac’s “Hot Gas” defrost system
• Hours run meter
• Provision for permanent drainage
• All galvanized interior
• Exterior epoxy powder-coated finish
• Rugged trolley for portability (optional)
• Extra long power cord
The fan draws the moist air through the cold evaporator coil, which cools the
air below its dew point. Moisture forms on the evaporator coil and is collected
in the condensate tray, which is equipped with a permanent drain. The cooled
air then passes through the hot condenser coil where it is reheated using the
same energy removed during the cooling phase, plus the additional heat
generated by the compressor. The air is, therefore, discharged from the
dehumidifier at a slightly higher temperature with a lower absolute humidity
than that which entered. Continuous circulation of air through the
dehumidifier gradually reduces the relative humidity within the area.
The BD80-XE dehumidifier is a rugged, reliable drying unit designed to
operate effectively over a broad range of temperature and humidity
conditions. An active hot gas defrost system, controlled by an electronic
timer, guarantees positive de-icing, thereby optimizing operation at low
temperatures.
The unit incorporates a welded and galvanized steel chassis and is finished in
an epoxy coating for resilience to damage caused by rough handling.
