Benefits

Humidity fluctuations can cause static discharge, material distortion, and premature wear on sensitive equipment—all leading to costly downtime. By maintaining consistent humidity, you protect both your machinery and the materials they process, ensuring smoother production, fewer interruptions, and maximum operational uptime.

Protect sensitive equipment

Maintaining stable humidity prevents static electricity, reduces wear on mechanical and electronic systems, and helps avoid malfunctions. This leads to fewer breakdowns and longer equipment life.

Preserve material integrity

Controlled humidity prevents distortion, warping, or shrinkage in materials such as paper, wood, textiles, and composites. This ensures consistent quality and reduces production interruptions caused by material issues.

Reduce maintenance

By creating a stable environment, humidity control minimises unplanned stoppages and the need for frequent maintenance. This keeps production running smoothly and maximises operational uptime.

Maximize Uptime with precise humidity control

Humidity control protects equipment

Sensitive equipment performs best in a controlled environment with stable humidity. When air becomes too dry, static discharge and component failure can occur; when it’s too humid, corrosion and condensation may damage internal parts. Effective humidity control prevents these risks, minimises wear, preserves calibration accuracy, and extends the lifespan of valuable machinery and electronic systems. Maintaining the right humidity level ensures reliable performance, reduced downtime, and long-term equipment protection.

Protect materials with humidity control

Paper, wood, plastics, and other hygroscopic materials naturally absorb and release moisture depending on the surrounding air’s humidity. When humidity levels fluctuate, these materials can swell, shrink, or distort—leading to warping, curling, or dimensional changes that disrupt production. Consistent humidity control keeps materials stable, maintains precise tolerances, and ensures smooth, efficient operation across production lines. By maintaining a controlled environment, you reduce waste, minimise rework, and improve overall product quality.

Ferrari, Maranello, Italy

Ferrari™s historic headquarters in Maranello was modernized in 2010 with advanced production facilities, including a high-tech wind tunnel and hybrid engine test stand. Condair™s resistance steam humidifiers ensure precise humidity control, supporting the development of Ferrari™s next generation of high-performance sports cars.

The Condair RS steam humidifiers boast patented limescale management which prevents permanent deposition of limescale on heater rods. Limestone crusts are successively detached and removed from the steam cylinder into the limescale collection vessel. Limestone management ensures extremely short waiting times and a long life.
The innovative control system fitted with a touch display ensures outstanding transparency of function and precise steam delivery. The units are the result of decades of experience and they define the state of the art in modern steam humidification.
