The best way to prevent wet atmospheric corrosion of metal

For several years Swedish Corrosion Institute has been testing and observing cars to identify which bearing parts of the body suffer the most from corrosion.

Tests revealed that the following elements are mostly exposed to corrosion: cross bars, stands, various supports (which are under load) and brackets of springs, wing spars, doors, bottom of the car, niches of headlights, fenders and bumpers.

Almost all major parts of the car are exposed to corrosion!

Corrosion develops quicker if:

  • Air-temperature in the garage increases;
  • Level of air-humidity increases;
  • There are no air-drying and ventilation systems in the garage.

Corrosion of hydraulic brake system, clutch, and cooling mechanism presents a serious threat to lives of the driver and passengers. These units are closed and, therefore, more susceptible to the development of condensation.

The optimum garage conditions

to protect your car from corrosion

  • Keep humidity level below 50%. If the air contains dust, and other impurities, humidity level of 50% is too high.

  • The optimal cost-effective solution to this problem is the installation of a desiccant dehumidifier to control humidity.

  • In this case, the installation of the so-called condensation dehumidifier will not solve the problem completely.

  • Firstly, the productivity of this type of dehumidifier is highly dependent on air humidity and temperature and, as practice shows, it is not capable of drying air to the humidity level below 65%.

  • Corrosion can be slowed down only at the humidity level below 50%.

  • Secondly, condensation dehumidifiers do not work at temperatures below zero.

  • Today, a more progressive and practical method is the dessicant method of air-drying.

Reliable method to protect your garage

If the garage is not heated or is heated irregularly, the best solution is to install a desiccant dehumidifier of Desiccant Technologies Group.

Maintaining a low level of humidity in the garage with the help of a heating system is absolutely unfeasible as its maintenance is about 2 times more expensive than humidity control with the help of a desiccant dehumidifier.

The advantages

of desiccant dehumidifiers of Desiccant Technologies Group

  1. Protect your car from the harmful effects of moisture;

  2. Prolong the lifespan of the car;

  3. Prolong the lifespan of the garage;

  4. Prevent mildew and unpleasant odors;

  5. Increase the serviceability of buildings and constructions.

Desiccant dehumidifiers of Desiccant Technologies Group will maintain the preset humidity mode at any temperatures.

Installation of DT Group Industrial Desiccant dehumidifiers

  • Creates the necessary microclimate in the places of storage;
  • Retains quality of the finished fur products;
  • Prevents development of moth and leather beetles;
  • Prevents mildew and bacteria growth;
  • Improves hygienic condition of the premises;
  • Prevents formation of condensed moisture;

increases lifespan of bearing constructions of buildings.

How does the desiccant dehumidifier work?

The air which should be dehumidified (process air) goes through the desiccant rotor. Water molecules are adsorbed in a special silicagel rotor. Desiccant rotor is regenerated by the second air stream preheated to 90-140 °C. Moisture is removed from the premises in the form of warm moist air.
