At Richard Jay, we’re committed to supplying state-of-the-art equipment for our customers. As such, we are now stocking increasingly popular Electrolux Professional drying cabinets.
These innovative drying solutions utilise gentle heat and airflow without mechanical action to dry items gently and efficiently. Read on to learn more about our new range of drying cabinets and the optimised outcomes they can deliver for your commercial or industrial laundry operation.
What is a drying cabinet?
Drying cabinets are becoming increasingly popular, favoured for their gentle drying capabilities. Drying cabinets are slightly slower, however, due to eliminating mechanical action they are safer for delicate items.
Drying cabinets now available at Richard Jay
Richard Jay now stocks three models of drying cabinets, catering to the needs of various customers. These drying cabinets allow for quick drying, without mechanical action.
Electrolux DC6-4
DC6-4 is a super compact product with dimensions of only 60 x 61 x 190 cm and runs off a 10 amp plug. This is useful for drying smaller items and separating items.
Evaporation is 19 g/min for the ducted model = 105 minutes cycle time
Evaporation is 30 g/min for the heat pump model = 67 minutes cycle time
The ducted model uses 0.6 kW per litre of evaporation. By comparison, the heat pump uses 0.29 kW per litre of evaporation, equating to a 52% saving in energy.
Electrolux DC6-8
Electrolux’s DC6-8 model is designed to process larger items quickly and occupies a similar footprint as two DC6-4 drying cabinets, at 120 x 58 x 182 cm. However, this model is faster due to the thermal input being four times higher than DC6-4. Both the heat pump and ducted models require a 15 amp for ducted and a 10 amp three-phase connection.
Evaporation is 84 g/min for the ducted model = 47 minutes
Evaporation is 50 g/min for the heat pump model = 60 minutes cycle time
The ducted DC6-8 model uses 0.6 kW per litre of evaporation, whereas the heat pump sits at 0.35 kW per litre of evaporation, equating to a 42% saving in energy.
Electrolux DC6-15
DC6-15 is the best cabinet for high volumes of jackets – utilising the unique feature of moving heated air through the jackets with specially designed hangers, and drying 15 kg worth of items within 95 minutes.
This model is favoured by fire and police stations due to the capability of drying wet jackets during a shift when there is no time to traditionally wash and dry. This simple piece of equipment keeps the people keeping us safe, protected and comfortable – no matter the weather or environment.
