The Carousel Plus dryers use molecular sieve desiccant that is bonded into a fiberglass substrate and formed into a continuously rotating wheel. The result is rock steady drying temperatures and dewpoint levels, critical for processing moisture and temperature sensitive material.

These units are capable of delivering nominal throughput rates ranging from 10 to more than 100 lb/hour.

The thermo-formed, impact resistant ABS cover adds to the good looks and space-saving design of the Carousel Plus dryers. Models 15-200 are also available in Mobile Drying and Conveying (MDC) configurations.

• REDUCED ENERGY COSTS
  The desiccant wheel assembly heats and cools more easily than previous drying technology saving you up to 35% on your energy bill. Fewer parts, lighter structural mass, less to heat, therefore less wasted energy.
   
• MAXIMUM UPTIME, MAXIMUM RELIABILITY
  With significantly reduced part count, easy access and less wear you can expect many years of trouble-free operation. The weight of the desiccant assembly has been reduced by 70%, the part count reduced by 90%, there are no more indexing bed plates, no more cumbersome 4-way valves and no more messy desiccant beads. Shift-after-shift this dryer will deliver the performance you need to stay up and running.
   
• PRECISE, ADJUSTABLE DEWPOINT CONTROL
  An industry first! The new dewpoint control option built into the microprocessor control system allows you to select a particular dewpoint value, which the control locks onto. The control then adjusts various dryer functions to precisely hold the dewpoint selected, virtually eliminating any chance of overdrying expensive material.

The core of the Carousel Plus Dryer is the Munters® unique fluted desiccant rotor, which contains molecular sieve desiccant. The molecular sieve has been grown into the rotor's porous fiberglass substrate, preventing the possibility of desiccant break down and dusting over time. The desiccant rotor revolves slowly at the rate of 12 revolutions per hour passing through three cycles with each revolution.

The benefits

• The high airflow across the surface area of the rotor produces a resin-drying low dewpoint within 5 minutes of start-up and offers multi-year media life with virtually no maintenance.
• The continuously revolving rotor provides rock steady temperature and dewpoint control.
• The rotor technology minimizes energy consumption by reducing the structural mass, less structural mass to heat means less energy wasted.
