This rotor can do both. The HUgo from Klingenburg transfers sensible and latent heat (i.e. energy bound up in moisture) simultaneously and sets new standards in terms of performance, hygiene, quality and reliability.
Effective in Warm, Humid Climate Zones
In warm, humid climates the HUgo extracts most of the moisture and heat from the incoming external air, thus creating a pleasant indoor climate. At the same time, it recovers most of the cool and dry air from the room, thus reducing the otherwise high power consumption of the air-conditioning unit.
Effective in Temperate Climates
In temperate climates the HUgo recovers most of the energy from the air that is heated and humidified in the building. This significantly reduces the energy required to heat and humidify the building.
Particularly Hygienic
HUgo offers optimal efficiencies - but without bacterial growth or odour formation. The sorption coating, developed by Klingenburg, possesses a unique surface structure. It captures water by harnessing the adsorption principle, but does not collect bacteria. Known as selective sorption, this process guarantees maximum air hygiene.
The storage mass of the HUgo rotor is also easy to clean. The Klingenburg coating, which uses DekaTru® technology, adheres so strongly to the aluminium surface that it will not arode even under high-pressure cleaning.
