HygroMatik new high pressure AHU humidifier

Edited by the Buildingtalk editorial team Aug 20, 2007

New high pressure humidification and percent cooling solution from HygroMatik, the HygroMatik HDS, offers the very latest in energy efficient and hygienic AHU humidification.

This adiabatic cold-water system enables a high humidification output to be achieved with a very low energy consumption, as well as providing a free cooling effect.

It guarantees high-performance humidification in winter, whilst during the summer mist evaporation cools the air, saving up to 1/3 cooling capacity.

Using hygienic de-mineralised water, HygroMatik's extremely efficient stainless steel high-pressure (70 bar) nozzles atomize the water into fine droplets which are quickly and easily evaporated in an optimised air stream generated by HygroMatik's vortex modules.

This effective mixing of water mist and air allows a short absorption distance of 900mm to be achieved.

The HygroMatik HDS system is the ideal energy saving and hygienic solution for environments that have high humidification requirements, such as offices, hospitals, production halls and laboratories.

The modular system is compatible with every duct cross-section, while its top-quality SPS control provides precise regulation.

It also has very low maintenance requirements due to the use of de-mineralised water which avoids calcium deposits and the use of high-grade components throughout.

The HygroMatik HDS system is certified by the Institute for Air Hygiene in accordance with the European DIN EN 13779 standard, as well as the corresponding German, Austrian and Swiss standards.

It is also certified according to CE and Hygiene-Conformity for climate and hospital applications.

It is designed to function without any chemical or biological disinfectants', ensuring only de-mineralised water is present in the ambient air.

Safeguarding the sterility of the water, the system contains only inert materials while integrated filters prevent dirt ingestion.

Correct humidity levels play a major role in achieving internal room comfort conditions.

A relative humidity (RH) of 50% at a temperature of 22C enables the occupants to feel warm, whereas an RH of 20% at 28C can leave the occupants feeling chilled.

In addition, the correct level of humidity not only improves room comfort, but can also prevent dry skin and sore throats.
