Condair DL Hybrid Humidifier

Q: How is water quality ensured during operation of the Condair DL?

The Condair DL uses demineralised water, typically provided by a reverse osmosis system. This prevents mineral deposits, ensures consistent humidification performance, and significantly reduces maintenance efforts.

Q: What control options does the Condair DL offer?

The Condair DL system features an integrated control unit with a touch display and can be seamlessly integrated into modern building management systems (BMS). This allows for easy monitoring, regulation, and maintenance.

Q: What types of applications is the Condair DL best suited for?

The Condair DL is ideal for HVAC systems in hygiene-sensitive environments such as hospitals, museums, laboratories, and office buildings. Its combination of high-performance humidification and certified hygiene makes it a preferred choice in demanding applications.

Condair DL

Hybrid Humidifiers

The Condair DL is the next generation of the Condair Dual2—the successful system for adiabatic air humidification. Its hygienic credentials have proven successful in practice and were verified and certified by independent organisations with public responsibility.

Two adiabatic methods intelligently combined!

The adiabatic humidifier Condair DL relies exclusively on the advantages of the two types of humidification, atomization and evaporation. This provides a sustainable solution to central problems that can arise when these techniques are used in isolation.

HygienePlus® method

The HygienePlus® process prevents the formation and spread of germs and pathogens in air conditioning systems and humidifiers. Since even drinking water is not germ-free, biofilms and microorganisms can otherwise form there. Through targeted hygiene measures, the process ensures clean, healthy air at all times.

Extremely short length

Low-pressure systems generally get by with a significantly shallower design depth than high-pressure humidifiers. Due to the arrangement of the evaporator ceramics so that they cover the full area, and as a result of the spray cone of the molecular diffuser nozzles, the entire overall depth of the Condair DL can be reduced to up to 600 mm.

System Structure

Professional planning is the basis for functional quality and energy efficiency. We are happy to assist you in the planning phase.

Fine filter

Pipe Disconnector

Softener

Optimal water treatment first of all requires the softening of the humidifying water. A softener performs this task reliably.

Reverse Osmosis Water Treatment

A reverse osmosis system supplies mineral-free humidifying water.

Control Unit

The control unit is the heart of the Condair DL hybrid humidifier. The control and regulating operations take place there.

HygienePlus® System

The HygienePlus® silver ionization and the optional sterile filter are used as preventative hygiene measures and offer lasting hygiene safety.

Atomizer Unit

The optimal layout of the atomizing nozzles ensures uniform humidity distribution. Electrical current consumption is low because of the low-pressure operation.

Evaporator Unit

The patented ceramic evaporator unit maximizes use of the valuable humidifying water. The separating efficiency of the ceramic ensures hygienic operation.

Foundation Michalski, Switzerland

An ideal work site for literature and literati - that was the vision that Vera and Jan Michalski wanted to achieve with the Maison d'ecriture. It is located at the foot of the Vaud Jura Mountains, in the Bois Ditsert in Montricher, with a view of Lake Geneva and the Alps. The site was chosen for its scenic beauty and the quiet surroundings that are supposed to have a positive effect on writers' activities and inspire them to reflect. This location has a very special appeal and a unique atmosphere. Architects V. Mangeat and P. Wahlen were tasked with designing the architecture of the object. They created several buildings for the foundation's numerous activities that fit perfectly into the surrounding nature and form a kind of settlement. Individual living spaces for authors, a dining room, a recreation room, a large library for research, a room with modular space for exhibitions and an auditorium for all kinds of events promise numerous encounters and brisk cultural exchange.
