System reduces drying time
Designed to shorten drying time, the Dryvex MC5200 drying system from Ground Heaters restores flooded structures quickly and efficiently with new Dryvection technology. The technology is a convection-based drying system that utilizes heat and air movement by using outside air rather than recycled air to dry flooded buildings and their contents in all types of weather conditions. The outside air is conditioned to a low relative humidity and blown into the building through flex ductwork. As the fresh, dry air circulates throughout the building, it absorbs large quantities of moisture.
A thermostat automatically controls the desired inside temperature while a second blower extracts the moisture-laden air out of the building. The MC5200 provides an airflow rate of 5,200 cfm. It can handle up to 15,000 square feet at saturation or up to 270,000 cubic feet of space, removing up to 900 gallons of moisture per day, depending on ambient conditions. The unit weighs 6,500 pounds and features an adjustable hitch that can be set up for either a 2 5/16-inch ball or pintle hook for towing capabilities, and can be towed behind vehicles that can haul up to 1,000 pounds of tongue weight.
“The convection system will help dry out wet structure in 48 to 72 hours, thus reducing secondary damage from mold and bacteria,” says Ken Cannella, product development director for Ground Heaters.
