CHD-U Hot Air Hopper Dryer
Introduction
Comet’s CHD-U series corrosion free stainless steel hot air hopper dryers can be directly mounted onto a molding machine for quick, space-saving drying or mounted to a floor stand with a take-off box. This dryer series is ideally suited to use with honeycomb matrix dehumidifiers to remove surface moisture from non-hygroscopic resins.
Model capacities range from 25 to 1,850 lbs. There are multiple optional accessories to meet different production demands, such as hot air recycler, magnetic base, and maintenance ladder, etc.
