Drop Separator UAKDS/ECDS
Main features
• Separates water droplets that have not fully evaporated
• Prevents droplets from leaving the humidification/cooling section
• Designed for duct-distributed humidifiers, optiMist and humiFog Multizone
• Suitable for applications with, for example:
– high humidity
– short humidification distance
– high air velocities
– high humidification capacity
• Available in a version for hygiene-critical installations
Description
The drop separator is an accessory for duct-distributed humidification with evaporative high-pressure humidifiers optiMist or high-pressure humidifiers humiFog Multizone.
The accessory is used in installations where operating conditions may involve a risk of droplet carry-over. The drop separator captures water that has not had time to evaporate and protects downstream components in the duct system, such as:
• cooling coils
• air filters
• fans
• sensors
• duct surfaces
The drop separator is available in two versions:
• UAKDS* – standard version with fibreglass modules
• ECDS* – version with stainless steel filter material for hygiene-critical installations, such as healthcare facilities, pharmaceutical applications and other environments where requirements according to VDI 6022 apply.
Variants
• UAKDS* – standard version with fibreglass modules.
• ECDS* – version with stainless steel filter material (AISI 304) for hygiene-critical installations, suitable for systems where VDI 6022 requirements apply.
The drop separator is installed in the duct or air handling unit downstream of the humidification section. It separates remaining water droplets before the airflow continues through the system.
For detailed information regarding installation, positioning, connections and required straight lengths, refer to the installation and user manual for the relevant humidification unit.
