To achieve the 7000's amazing performance, Dri-Eaz engineers developed the Advanced Crossflow Technology to maximize energy utilization. At the same time, the unit's built-in sensors constantly monitor real time performance data to automatically calculate ideal operating parameters – such as fan speed and cycle duration – in real-time.
With its outstanding performance at AHAM and saturation, plus 40% better low-grain performance than competitive units, the 7000 is truly the top performer. The LGR 7000XLi control panel displays inlet and outlet temp and RH in real time. No obscure codes are used here! Plain English text (and three other languages) provide clear operational information. It also greatly simplifies cleaning and maintenance. Simply remove four bolts and the cover easily lifts off to fully expose the coils and the heat exchange block for cleaning. The 7000XLi includes a built-in humidistat for set-and-forget
Advanced engineering achieves unrivaled performance
To achieve the 7000's amazing performance, Dri-Eaz engineers developed Advanced Crossflow TechnologyTMto maximize energy utilization. At the same time, the unit's built-in sensors constantly monitor real time performance data to automatically calculate ideal operating parameters – such as fan speed and cycle duration – in real-time. The astounding thing about the 7000 is its XL category-busting performance in a unit that matches the size of an Evolution and weighs just 102 pounds! With an amazing 130 pints/61.5L per day tested water removal at AHAM (80°F/60% RH) and 235 pints/111L at max (90°F/90% RH), plus 40% better low-grain performance than competitive units, the 7000 is truly the top performer.
But the 7000Xli is also an operator-friendly machine. The control panel displays inlet and outlet temp and RH in real time. No obscure codes are used here! Plain English text (and three other languages) provide clear operational information. Best of all, with its integrated oversized pump basin, the 7000 has been designed to prevent accidental spills when moving the unit off the job.
Dri-Eaz Products ships new groundbreaking dehumidifier
LGR 7000XLi removes more water than any other dehumidifier in its category.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
December 15, 2011 – Burlington, Wash. Dri-Eaz Products is now shipping the LGR 7000XLi dehumidifier, the new dominant performer in the Xactimate “Extra Large” category.
The new Dri-Eaz LGR 7000 delivers extra-large dehumidifier performance in a compact, highly maneuverable unit that only weighs 107 lbs. Given its size and water removal capacity – 130 pints/61.5L per day at AHAM and 40% better low-humidity performance than competitive units – the 7000 sets a new industry record in pound-for-pound performance.
“We’re excited to get this unit in our customers’ hands and out in the field,” said John Ormsby, President of Dri-Eaz Products and ProRestore Products. “We know they’re going to be astounded by its performance, portability, timesaving features and overall quality of build. Our customers simply won’t be able to justify the purchase of any competitive unit. Why? Because there aren’t any that even come close.”
The unit’s digital controls display plain-language status messages as well as real-time temperature and RH conditions. A completely integrated and oversized pump basin prevents accidental spills when moving the unit. The rotomolded polyethylene housing is practically indestructible and is designed to be stackable for storage. To inhibit the growth of stain and odor-causing bacteria and mold inside the unit, the pump basin and the pump basin liner are both infused with Microban product protection.
The 7000 is also designed to make maintenance as simple as possible. Operators simply remove four bolts and the cover easily lifts off to fully expose the coils and the heat exchange block for cleaning. A High Airflow filter from 3M ensures maximum airflow characteristics.
The 7000 delivers its remarkable dehumidification performance in a large part due to a patent-pending heat exchange system called Advanced Crossflow Technology. This technology, coupled with the unit’s onboard sensors and control systems, allows the 7000 to automatically optimize performance in a wide range of conditions.
Advanced Crossflow Technology was developed by Rick Black, PhD., Engineering Manager at Dri-Eaz. Black, who joined Dri-Eaz in February, has over 22 years of engineering and project management experience. He has worked on a number of specialized engineering projects including aircraft propulsion and microelectromechanical sensor control systems. His patents include a cooling system for a rocket payload section, and an air data system for military aircraft.
Black appreciates the combination of technical challenges and applied engineering that occur each day at Dri-Eaz. Dri-Eaz’ conducts virtually all of its product design, engineering, testing and manufacturing in its Burlington, Washington, facilities. Black is a strong proponent of testing and led the Dri-Eaz Engineering team in conducting more 3000 hours of testing prior to the release of this new dehumidifier.
For superior performance, easy monitoring and legendary reliability, more and more customers are choosing the i-Series dehumidifiers from Dri-Eaz.
