—Literature Available Cargocaire Engineering Corporation, Amesbury, Mass., a leader in the development and manufacture of desiccant dehumidification systems for 50 years, recently introduced its new industrial Honey- Combe® dehumidifier model HC300. Designed to eliminate the problems of mold, mildew, bacterial growth and corrosion to product manufacturing and storage, the HC300 offers unique safety and cost control benefits for the marine off- shore industry.
Cargocaire HC300 controls excessive humidity and provides safe dry storage conditions to protect archives, raw materials, finished goods and other hygroscopic materials from moisture damage.
Featuring state-of-the-art Honeycombe wheel construction, the HC300 dehumidifier provides maintenance- free, energy-efficient desiccant performance for water treatment plants, dry storage, unheated warehouses, injection molding machines, laboratories and film and archival storage.
A major advantage of the Cargocaire HC300 is that it can operate effectively at virtually any temperature without freezing-up like refrigeration- type equipment. According to the company, it also requires less energy to operate than other desiccant- type dehumidifiers.
The HC300 provides a cost-effective, reliable solution to uncontrolled humidity problems with the additional benefits of continuous or humidity-controlled drying performance; no desiccant settling, erosion or attrition; and no bacteria growth.
