Not just a lot of hot air
December 1st 2010 Ravensdale Junior
School is a member of
the Eco-Schools
scheme and has
identified the Jet Towel
hand dryer from
Mitsubishi Electric, as
the potential answer
to their worries
regarding the
environment.
The school had a
visit from John Rowely
from Mitsubishi,
together they worked out the
energy saving potential over
conventional dryers.
When hands are placed into the
slot,a high speed air
blast is triggered that
blows the water off
and isolates it in a
receptor tank at the
base of the hand
dryer.This is different
to normal hand dryers
which blow warmed
air over the hands to
evaporate water.
Hand drying takes
an estimated 10
seconds with a Jet
Towel, less than a quarter of the
time it takes with a warm air dryer. More articles from Mitsubishi Electric Europe: |
