An excellent cycling dryer, the Nirvana provides significant savings because it does not waste energy through continuous operation of its refrigeration system, as do traditional non-cycling dryers. Dryer operation, and therefore energy draw, is reduced to match to the incoming heat load. Each component of the Nirvana has been designed to provide not only durability but maximum energy efficiency. This combination of system design and individual component design adds up to the most energy efficient refrigerated cycling dryer available.
