**Performance proof points**  
• Dew point held ≥5 °F below coldest surface, eliminating condensation  
• Factory chamber-verified per AHRI 910/920; low-ambient to 0 °F, tropical to 115 °F  
• BACnet/Modbus integration decouples latent load from central AHU, allowing smaller, more efficient main systems  

**Typical configuration options**  
Horizontal or vertical cabinets • Water-source cooling • Remote air-cooled condenser • Electric or gas duct heater • Energy-recovery loop • Epoxy-coated coils  

**Outcome**  
By isolating the latent burden of ventilation air, DCA DOAS units improve indoor-air quality, reduce HVAC energy and maintenance costs, and future-proof commercial buildings against ever-stricter IAQ codes.
