technology bits Delta "T" Systems DryBoat The DryBoat from Delta "T" Systems is an all-season marine dehumidifier system, and is one-third the size of traditional compressor/condenser type units and uses a fraction of the power. Employing Peltech GEOtronic Technology it features a small, solid-state heat pump. Winner of the 2008 Innovation Award for Interior Parts given at the Marine Aftermarket Accessories Trade Show, the DryBoat reduces humidity in spaces up to 1,400 cu. ft. Designed for occasional or continuous use, the system doesn't have to be emptied regularly. Instead, the water simply drains through a hose into a sink, grey-water tank or overboard. It can remove a maximum of 2-3/5 gallons per week at 86 degrees at 80 percent humidity and 2/5 gallons in typical winter conditions. Constructed of marine-grade materials and components, DryBoat is compact and weighs only 8.5 lbs. The dehumidifier runs on 12 or 24 volt DC. An optional AC adapter is also available.
