Demisters ensure dry air in airconditioning systems onboard ships

Demisters are regularly used onboard ships to remove water from the air. Demisters are
especially important onboard cruise liners, as the large numbers of passengers need an
immense amount of air, and the standards set for air quality are extremely high.
Alupro is one of the few enterprises whose demisters have been tested for quality by independent parties. Alupro's demisters have been tested by the Technical Research Centre of
Finland and conform to the requirements of the EN13030:2001 standard.
Alupro has also developed classy screening louvres for hiding demisters onboard ships.
These stylish horizontal louvres are used for architectural reasons to screen demisters on
the sides of ships.

Efficient demisting of ambient air


Our demisters comprise vertical louvres made with lamellas
specifically designed for the purpose of efficiently removing
moisture from ambient air with air flow rates between 2

Demisters are used onboard cruise liners to remove moisture from the air used in the airconditioning system. The same technology is used to separate water from the air used by
the engines. On offshore oil rigs, demisters are used to separate water from the air used
in the machinery and the air used to cool the generators.
Our demisters are made of extruded aluminium of stainless or acid-proof steel, depending
on your requirements. The demisters are supplied with either a powdered-paint or lacquered finish. Alternatively, you can choose not to have any surface treatment.

Luxury demisters for luxury liners

Freedom of the Seas, Liberty of the Seas and Independence of the Seas are currently the largest and most stunning cruise liners in the world. These three majestic sister ships regularly cruise between Miami, US and the Caribbean Sea.
The passengers onboard these vessels are used to expecting a lot from a cruiseliner. This is why the air-conditioning system was also of paramount importance.
The air-conditioning system onboard each luxury liner is kitted with 154 efficient
WSN demisters by Alupro.
