Flexible, modular hay drying system, specifically tailored to your farm's needs
Technical data
The dimensions and operating parameters are specifically tailored to your needs.
Dehumidifier air flow: 25,000-30,000 m3/h
Heating element coefficient of performance (COP): 6-7,47
30% lower energy consumption compared to conventional systems due to the use of a recuperator
Two-circuit heat exchanger prevents icing
A) Recuperator
It removes moisture from the air in the hay by separating the water through aluminium fins through which the refrigerant flows. An innovative nanoparticle coating ensures rapid removal of condensed water and prevents the build-up of deposits on the aluminium fins that would otherwise hinder the condensation process.
B) Heat exchanger
Heats the air to a preset temperature before it enters the hay. The air is heated as it passes over the copper tubes of the heating element.
C) Air filter
Easy-to-change cartridge filters clean the air before it enters the dryer. This prevents the build-up of dust and dirt in the machine, which reduce the efficiency of the system. The easy-to-clean mesh traps coarse dirt in front of the filter.
D) Venturi manifold
Venturi manifolds direct the refrigerant to the condensing dryer. This ensures that the refrigerant is evenly distributed throughout the different parts of the dryer, increasing the efficiency of the condensing process.
E) Opening flap
All system components are easily accessible through the maintenance openings. This means that the device does not require extensive dismantling for maintenance.
F) System housing
The casing panels are insulated to maintain optimum operating temperature. This reduces energy loss through heat dissipation and keeps noise levels low.
G) Pressure switch and pressure indicator
Pressure gauges and thermometers for reliable readings of the most important parameters of the refrigeration process directly on the system.
Suction pressure gauge shows the pressure in the evaporator.
Condensation pressure gauge shows the pressure in the compressor.
H) Dehumidifier
A stainless steel tray collects the water, which is extracted by a condensation dryer and then discharged through copper pipes. A float displays the water level in the tray and warns if the water level rises due to a blocked drain.
If desired, the water can be pumped out by a condensation pump (riser system).
I) Compressor (scroll)
The compressor compresses the refrigerant from about 1.5 bar to 20 bar. This heats the refrigerant and allows it to raise the temperature of the air in the heat exchanger to the temperature required for hay drying (e.g. 45 °C). The number of compressors used depends on the requirements of your system.
Maximum compressor power: 10 kW.
Rated compressor power: 9 kW.
(J) Luft/Luft ECO recuperator
The transverse heat exchanger provides energy savings when heating the air for the hay dryer, using the heat of the supply air for the condensing dryer. The recuperator reduces energy consumption by about 25% compared to a conventional drying system with the same drying capacity.
K) Expansion vessel
Expansion tank to stabilise the pressure in the system. The vessel is divided into two parts by a diaphragm. One is filled with gas and the other with refrigerant in case the pressure becomes too high.
L) Condensation tray
A stainless steel tray collects the water, which is extracted by a condensation dryer and then discharged through copper pipes. A float displays the water level in the tray and warns if the water level rises due to a blocked drain.
If desired, the water can be pumped out by a condensation pump (riser system).
Electronic control system
Automatically coordinates compressors, fans, barn roof flaps and variable drying of multiple hay stacks.
Control via mobile apps or PC is available as an option.
