Air moisture control for fruit ripening arrangement - incorporates moisture-heat exchanger unit for air control

摘要

Fruit e.g. bananas ripening arrangement, ensures that air temp. is increased until a predetermined moisture level is reached. Fruit ripening arrangement of large capacity includes a moisture and heat exchange appts. (100) in which a number of adjacent positioned ventilators (40) with motors (44) provide the required air circulation. The moisture/heat exchanger unit includes a section (1) of curved walls from which through pipe (2) water via nozzle (3) is sprayed. Below section (1) is a gas inlet (6) below which a trough has an outlet (5) and higher positioned overflow (4).
