> System designers can adjust power requirements after installation rather than predicting them precisely upfront

## Key points

- Power requirements for Polygon systems are adjustable post-installation.
- Guillermo Martinez outlines the use of three-phase 460-volt power for most systems.
- Energy optimization strategies include using gas burners for reactivation cycles.

In this informative video, [Guillermo Martinez](https://www.linkedin.com/in/guillermo-martinez-eng/), Applications Engineer at [Polygon US](https://www.polygongroup.com/en-US/), addresses a common question about system design and power requirements for desiccant dehumidifiers. He explains the challenges in estimating power needs before designing the system and highlights the flexibility to adjust power once the system is in place. Martinez overviews the R Series, specifically the tri-fuel desiccant dehumidifiers powered by propane, natural gas, or electricity.
