The new Munters Quantum™ rotor is a further refinement of our "work horse" the HPS (High Performance Silicagel) rotor that is the heart of most Munters dehumidifiers sold today.

This advanced Quantum™ rotor provide large dehumidification capacity (∆ X) and is designed from a unique desiccant blend suitable for high reactivation temperature applications like drying processes. (At high reactivation temperatures standard desiccant rotors normally loose performance over time).

With Munters Quantum™ rotor it is possible to dehumidify ambient air to very dry conditions (DeltaX up to 15 g/kg) without requiring any pre cooling which secures very dry and hygienic process environment without any condensate.

For these reasons the worlds leading manufacturers of eg. baby milk powder trust Munters and the Quantum™ rotor for demanding processes like cooling and spray drying, saving up to 40% energy.

The basic principle shows the design of a desiccant rotor for the drying technique. The rotor works on the principle of sorption by which a desiccant removes water vapor directly from the air. The rotor is divided into two segments; process air and regeneration air. A sealing system prevents mixing of the air flows. The air to be dried passes through the desiccant wheel and the desiccant removes the water vapor from the air and holds it while rotating. As the moisture laden desiccant passes through the reactivation sector, the water vapor is transferred to a heated airstream, which is exhausted to the outside.
The process is continuous, allowing for highly effective and uninterrupted dehumidification.
