The 8th generation of
Mitsubishi Electric’s Jet
Towel uses high-speed air jets
to hygienically dry hands and is now
easier and quicker to use, offering
high energy efficiency, improved
hygiene and compact footprint. It is
available in a choice of three colours
– silver, white and black.

The Jet Towel is completely noncontact
during operation, which
improves hygiene; hands are simply
inserted into the drying chamber
and the air jets automatically switch
on. With the Generation 8, extra
sensors have been added and the
drying chamber is 40% larger than
on earlier models; making usage
easier for everybody.

Noise levels are down by one
decibel to 58dB, while the air flow is
almost 25% faster – from 80 to
98m/s, which improves drying time.

Earlier models of Jet Towel were
frugal on energy consumption and
the new unit redefines the standard,
using from only 550W. The company
says that a technical analysis showed
that 20% less air by volume is used
which, when coupled with a 40%
reduction in resistance at the jets,
adds up to a 15% saving in energy
and reduced running costs.
