PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The BD550W series dehydrators are used for pressurisation of broadcast antennas and transmission lines. The dehydrator removes the moisture from damp ambient air to deliver a reliable, constant, on-demand source of dry, pressurised air.
The inherent reliability of the BD series design, combined with the high output capacity make these units an ideal choice for pressurisation of systems. Low pressure systems (suffix LP) are available for applications where reduced pressure is required, for example; pressurisation of broadcast antenna radomes, waveguide and transmission lines.
The BD550W Series dehydrators employ a fully digital operating platform offering the most accurate readings of operating variables, either from the front panel or by a remote connection.
FEATURES / BENEFITS
- Operating pressure can be changed by a simple adjustment at the dehydrator
- Remote Real-Time Data and Alarm Reset Capabilities
- SNMP Communication Compatible
- Digital Display of All Operating Parameters
- Imperial and Metric Unit of Measure Options
- 8,000 Hour Maintenance Interval
- Compact and Lightweight
- Versatile Installation
- Ultra Quiet Compressor
