DE-HUMIDIFIER

Ebac BD70 Industrial Building Dryer: The Reliable Workhorse for Construction & Restoration

The Ebac BD70 is a heavy-duty, portable condensation dehumidifier engineered to accelerate drying times and control humidity effectively in various industrial and commercial settings. Built with an all-steel construction, this unit is designed to withstand the rigours of continuous use on challenging job sites, making it a favourite among plasterers, decorators, flood restoration specialists, and tool hire companies.

Features

• Efficient Moisture Extraction: The BD70 is capable of extracting up to 12 litres of water per 24 hours at standard conditions (30°C and 80% Relative Humidity). This capacity makes it highly effective for speeding up the drying of wet trades like plaster, concrete, screed, and paint, or for recovering properties after leaks and floods. It has an effective volume capacity of approximately 100m³.
• Rugged All-Steel Construction: Unlike many domestic dehumidifiers, the BD70 features a robust, epoxy-coated zintec steel casing. This durable construction ensures it can endure the bumps, knocks, and harsh conditions commonly found on construction sites, guaranteeing a long service life.
• Dual Voltage Option: Available in both 230V (single voltage) and 110V/230V dual voltage configurations. The dual voltage model offers exceptional versatility, allowing the unit to be safely powered by standard domestic outlets or industrial site power supplies. A concealed voltage selection switch is a key feature of the dual voltage model.
• Hot Gas Defrost System: Equipped with an automatic hot gas defrost function. This essential feature prevents ice build-up on the evaporator coils when operating in cooler temperatures (down to 3°C), ensuring continuous and efficient dehumidification performance even on cold winter days, without manual intervention.
• Gravity Fed Condensate Drainage: The collected moisture is removed via a gravity-fed drainage spout. This allows for continuous, unattended operation by connecting a standard hose (e.g., 1/2" ID PVC tube) directly to a drain, eliminating the need for a water collection tank and frequent emptying.
• Operational Simplicity: The BD70 is designed for straightforward "plug and play" operation. Simply position the unit, ensure doors and windows are closed, connect the power, and switch it on. Its user-friendly design makes it accessible to a wide range of users.
• Portable & Manoeuvrable: Fitted with robust castor wheels and a sturdy carrying handle, the BD70 is easy to move around job sites, even over uneven terrain, enhancing its practicality and versatility.
• Quiet Operation: Despite its industrial capabilities, the BD70 maintains a relatively low noise level (around 47-50 dB(A)), making it less disruptive in occupied or semi-occupied environments.
• Energy Efficient: With a low power consumption (e.g., 0.46kW / 460W), the BD70 is designed to operate economically, providing cost-effective drying solutions.
• Made in the UK: Designed and manufactured by Ebac Industrial Products in the UK, known for their expertise in industrial dehumidification solutions.

Applications

The Ebac BD70 Industrial Building Dryer is an indispensable tool for a wide range of professional applications:

• Construction Sites: Accelerating the drying of plaster, concrete, screed, paint, and drywalling, helping to keep projects on schedule regardless of weather conditions.
• Water Damage Restoration: Rapidly drying out properties after floods, burst pipes, and leaks to prevent further damage, mould, mildew, and rot.
• Renovation & Decoration: Controlling humidity during renovation work, especially in damp areas like basements or newly plastered rooms.
• Storage Facilities: Maintaining optimal humidity levels in warehouses, storage units, and archives to protect sensitive materials from moisture damage.
• Temporary Drying Solutions: Providing effective environmental control for various temporary structures or areas that require moisture removal.
• Tradespeople: A core piece of equipment for plasterers, decorators, and other finishing trades.
