DECT Dectron International (MM)

Dectron Internationale provides "water from air" to Chevron USA in the Gulf of Mexico SYMBOL: NASDAQ: DECT Shares Outstanding: 2,973,750 MONTREAL, April 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Dectron Internationale Inc. sold to Chevron USA, through its subsidiary, International Water Makers Inc., a patented Moisture Recovery Unit(R) (MRU) to supply pure water, pre- programmed for automatic on-line gas turbine blade cleaning. The MRU(R) system has been designed to generate significant quantities of water from the ambient air surrounding the platform. Once generated, the water will be filtered through Dectron's 5-stage purification and deionization process to render it safe for both turbine washes, and potable use accordingly. Compared to the traditional method of stopping the turbines for a manual wash approximately every 4 to 6 weeks, the MRU(R)'s microprocessor controlled on-line system cleans the turbine blades without the need for shutdown, generating significant savings from increased production. An added feature available on the MRU(R) is its Remote Monitoring & Control capabilities via Ethernet. "One of Dectron's strengths is to provide a fully integrated on-line turbine wash with monitoring & control capability (either local or remote) to suit clients' needs", said Nick Agopian, Vice-President Sales, Dectron Internationale. "This advanced feature will further save costs to any operator by limiting the amount of trips engineers need to make to the remote locations where the turbines are installed." Dectron Internationale Inc. is a publicly traded Company located primarily in and around Montreal, Quebec, Canada, with manufacturing and sales facilities in the USA as well. Dectron Internationale manufactures and supplies an array of products for the dehumidification, refrigeration, air conditioning and indoor air quality (IAQ) markets through it's operating subsidiaries, Dectron Inc., Circul-Aire Inc., RefPlus Inc., Thermoplus Air Inc., IPAC 2000 Inc. and Tranzmetal Inc. With the acquisition of International Water Makers Inc., which manufactures products that generate pure water from air, Dectron Internationale now possesses proprietary technology on two of the most essential and increasingly scarce elements required for healthy living - clean air and water.
