Waterworks

High humidity in waterworks results in condensation

Waterworks are often plagued by problems caused by unwanted moisture − usually the indirect result of outside air entering the building. The dew point of such air is normally higher than the temperature of the many cold surfaces and installations within a waterworks facility. This results in condensation forming on the pipes, pumps and containers, as well as as on electrical equipment and building structures.

High relative humidity can result in many different kinds of damage to both structures and equipment, as well as disrupting operations by affecting electrical installations, electronics and mechanical fixtures.

Dehumidification is the only solution

The operation of an adsorption dehumidifier is adjusted on the basis of the desired dew point within the building. This means the dehumidifier can ensure humidity levels that eliminate condensation on cold surfaces, keeping the building and its contents dry and free of mould and mildew.

This significantly reduces maintenance and repair costs for both the buildings and technical installations in any waterworks facility.

Using energy-efficient Cotes adsorption dehumidifier technology also enables you to manage and control humidity levels with the lowest possible energy costs and in the most environmentally responsible way.
