Description

The ADH NETCOM automatic dehydrator supplies low pressure dry air to keep waveguide and coaxial cable dry. Output pressure is configurable between 0.10 psig and 7.50 psig (7mbar – 517mbar) in 0.01 psig (0.67mbar) increments. Factory default pressure is 0.5 psig (34.5mbar). Operational monitoring and alarms are software based making them highly configurable in the field. Future software features can be installed while in service over the internet or local Ethernet network.

The ADH NETCOM automatic dehydrator is Ethernet network ready. Units can be configured and monitored using either built in SNMP support or the web interface. Legacy system support is provided via RS-422/485 or RS-232 interfaces. Three programmable alarm relays are also included. Communicated operational information includes output pressure, duty cycle, temperature, compressor hours and air drying canister status.

The ADH NETCOM automatic dehydrator uses a brushless dual-diaphragm pump for long life. Dehydrator operates with exceptionally low noise and vibration levels. The air drying canisters use aluminum oxide desiccant for high efficiency. The humidity sensor signals for regeneration based upon current dew point rather than at fixed time intervals for additional energy savings and long desiccant life.

The ADH NETCOM NEMA automatic dehydrator provides the same functionality as a standard ADH NETCOM in an environmentally sheltered IP66, NEMA 4X enclosure. It is ideal for use with mobile satellite antenna installations and for outdoor mounting for pressurization systems localized to the antenna pedestal. This outdoor configuration is also ideal for use in pressurization systems in remote locations such as along rail lines, pipe lines and at power distribution substations. While the NEMA enclosure keeps out moisture, the temperature control system allows operation down to –40°F (–40°C) The ADH NETCOM NEMA automatic dehydrator weighs just 24 lbs (10.9 kg).
