Thats one of the poorer systems (but cheaper and able to work to lower humidity levels).

They use a desiccant which absorbs water (e.g. silica gel), this then needs to be dried out and hence they are often less efficient (as they have to heat the desiccant to remove the water).

Desiccant is often on a belt like assembly to give the continuous cycle of operation.

.....but apparently they work better at lower temperatures, Mark.
