A dehumidifier for an electrical-equipment air intake has an outer housing wall and a floor of a material with a high specific thermal conductivity downwardly closing the outer housing wall, having a downwardly tapering funnel-shaped inner surface formed with a central downwardly open port, and having a rounded edge where the surface meets the port. An inner air-permeable housing inside the outer housing wall holds a moisture-absorbing mass so that air drawn in through the port can pass through the mass and then into a space between the inner and outer housings. A moisture sensor is provided between the housings and a heater in the mass. A controller connected between the heater and the sensor energizes the heater and cooks moisture out of the mass such that the moisture condenses on the floor and runs over the edge out through the port.
