Environmental Technology ETI ADH Sirocco Communications Air Dehydrator
Operational monitoring and alarms are user-configurable to suit unique or changing system requirements.
Sirocco Waveguide Air Dehydrator
The Environmental Technologies Inc. ADH Netcom Sirocco Provides dry pressurized air to ensure the signal quality of antenna waveguide systems and dielectric coaxial cable performs in accordance with specifications. This Highly configurable air dehydrator meets the needs of a wide range of applications and is field programmable with operating pressure ranges from 0.10 psig to 7.50 psig (7mbar to 517mbar). Its brushless dual-diaphragm compressor provides a long life cycle and future-proof software based features allow updates and upgrades while in service.
Built-In Monitoring
Three configurable alarm relays are also included. Communicated operational information includes output pressure, duty cycle, temperature, compressor hours, and air drying canister status. The ADH SIROCCO automatic air dehydrator uses a brushless dual-diaphragm pump for long life and operates with exceptionally low noise and vibration levels. The air drying canisters use aluminum oxide desiccant for high efficiency. Desiccant automatically regenerates at fixed time intervals for additional energy savings and long desiccant life.
Efficient
The ADH NETCOM automatic Sirocco dehydrator operates from 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. Optional units are also available at ±20-75 VDC. The dehydrator consumes a maximum of 150 watts during regeneration and about 40 watts otherwise. Heat dissipated is up to 512 BTU/hr during regeneration and about 136 BTU/hr otherwise. The ADH-NETCOM creates an exceptionally low heat load for an automatic dehydrator.
An optional front panel with display allows for IP configuration and status monitoring when no network is available.
