Commenting on the new product launch, Jake Dyson, Chief Engineer, said: “At Dyson, we believe that hand drying should be fast, healthy and responsible for energy consumption. We solved many of these problems when we revolutionized the industry with the launch of the first Dyson Airblade ™ in 2006. Today we continue to lead the way with the Dyson Airblade 9kJ, our latest hand drying technology. We have given attention to everything from sound to design, and rethinked every detail to deliver the best performance without compromising on user experience or cleanliness. ”
The company said it had started work on the development of the Dyson Airblade 9kJ hand dryer three years ago and created more than 700 prototypes.The result was the quietest hand dryer in the Dyson Airblade ™ series to date, capable of hand drying in 10 seconds. Thanks to the company's advances in engine and airflow technologies, the new Dyson Airblade 9kJ hand dryer consumes up to 80% less energy than the original Dyson Airblade ™ hand dryer, while producing 85% less CO2 emissions per drying compared to tissue paper .
James Dyson, Founder and Chief Engineer, said: “Engineers have a constant desire to improve things and make them more efficient and less resource-intensive. This desire is an essential part of our approach and represents a motivation for us to progress and develop even in the bathroom equipment. ” “Tissue paper was first launched in 1907, and the electric hand dryer first appeared in 1948, but both flawed. We had to go on a journey of research and development to narrow the gap. When we created Dyson Airblade ™ in 2006, we introduced for the first time a method of de-watering with unheated and high-speed technology, which in turn reduced energy consumption. ”
The company emphasized that its success has always been reflected in the details and the smart combination of solid hardware and sophisticated programs, in an effort to enable the user to control and customize his environment.
The Dyson Airblade 9kJ hand dryer uses Dyson's leading technologies that include:
Curved Blade ™ design for air vents
The dryer supports the Dyson V4 digital engine, which rotates at speeds of up to 75,000 rpm, and the air flows at 388 miles per hour through two curved holes of 0.45 mm, consistent with the shape of the hands, which removes water in less time. The Dyson V4 digital engine converts 23 liters of air per second, allowing the Dyson Airblade 9kJ hand dryer to dry hands in 10 seconds.
The Dyson Airblade 9kJ hand dryer uses about 9.1 kilojoules of energy per drying process, which means it costs just 27$ a year to operate.
Play without touch
The smart device uses 'Time of flight' sensors that accurately detect the movement of hands within 0.2 seconds and activate air without wasting energy.
High efficiency clean air filter HEPA
The HEPA filter is made of fiberglass and is lined with wool, capturing 99.95% of the particles including bacteria and viruses in the bathroom air. The device uses clean air to dry your hands.
sound engineering
This is the quietest hand dryer in the Dyson Airblade ™ series to date, The dryer contains silencers made from open-cell foam and perforated discs that reduce noise from air flow through the engine.
To reduce noise, Dyson redesigned the airflow paths through the device, making them more streamlined and straightened, reducing the amount of sound released when the air was released.
The Dyson V4 digital casing regulates airflow paths through the engine, reducing noise. The engine is installed on the silicon rubber to further reduce noise, and absorbs vibrations from the air in and out of the engine.
The Dyson Airblade ™ 9kJ hand dryer is priced at 1470$ and is designed for commercial or public bathrooms in offices, shopping malls, restaurants, public places, parks, schools, hospitals and hotels. Its durable stainless steel body is built to last long and has been tested several times to ensure that it can withstand the real bathroom environment.
