PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Drying Tower is a modular addition to
the Reel-to-Reel Web Handling Module. It
allows previously dispensed webs of
material to be continuously dried. Three
drying stages are assembled into a dry
tower. Each drying stage provides a two
foot (61 cm) drying zone which is
temperature controlled in both flow
directions; thus a 3-stage drying tower
module provides 6 feet (182 cm) of drying
zone.

Multiple 3-stage drying tower modules may
be employed in series, saving work space.
The BioDot drying tower modules provides
forced heated air convection
supplemented with far infrared radiation.
The independent controls for each drying
tower module incorporate a close loop set
point temperature control, sensing air at a
site adjacent to the membrane path. The
drying tower modules are connected to the
emergency-stop interlock of the reel-to-reel
web handling system.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS
CONTROL
        Each drying zone has independent
        controls for temperautre.

FLEXIBLE
        Each drying module will accomodate
        membranes or absorbent material in
        widths up to 4" (10 cm)

HIGH PRODUCTIVITY
        Multiple tower additions offer increased
        throughput capacity.

DRYER SPEED
        Typical speed range is from 0.20"/ sec
        to 1.96"/ sec. (5 mm/sec to 50 mm/sec)
        Dependent upon drying temperature,
        air velocity, number of drying towers,
        and liquid content to be removed.
