Abstract
A method of producing a desiccant rotor (2) of a desiccant dehumidifier (1), said desiccant rotor (2) comprising a plurality of channels (4) extending through the rotor (2), said method comprising the steps of: a) building the rotor layer by layer, wherein at least every second layer (5) is corrugated such that a channel is defined between at a first layer (3) and a neighbouring second layer (5), and b) positioning a sensor (9, 11, 13, 15) onto a surface of the first layer (3) or the second layer (5), which surface will define said channel (4) upon said attachment of the first layer (3) to the second layer (5).
Claims22
A method of producing a desiccant rotor of a desiccant dehumidifier, said desiccant rotor comprising a plurality of channels extending through the rotor, said method comprising the steps of:
- (a) building the rotor layer by layer, wherein at least every second layer is corrugated such that a channel is defined between at a first layer and a neighboring second layer;
- and
- (b) positioning a sensor onto a surface of the first layer or the second layer, which surface will define said channel upon said attachment of the first layer to the second layer.
A desiccant rotor comprising:
- a plurality of channels extending through the rotor;
- at least one sensor attached to a surface which defines one of said channels.
