Information about the device

Device description
The device uses the principle of condensation to automatically dehumidify rooms. The fan sucks damp room air through the air inlet, the air filter, the evaporator and to the condenser located behind it. The air is cooled at the cold evaporator until it is below the dew point. Water vapour contained in the room air precipitates on the evaporator fins as condensation or rime. The dehumidified, cooled air is slightly warmed at the condenser and blown out again. The drier air thus conditioned mixes with the air in the room. The humidity in the room where the device is positioned is reduced as air constantly circulates through the device. The device comes with a hot gas automatic defrost system. Here, the hot gas of the refrigerant circuit is used actively for fast and effective defrosting. This makes the device operate effectively even at temperatures below 15 °C. The comfort function allows the device to operate particularly quietly and thus makes it suitable for use in inhabited surroundings. To discharge the condensate, the device is equipped with an integrated condensate pump with an automatic switch-off function that is able to operate up to a height of max. 10 m. The device can reduce the relative humidity of a room to approx. 30 %. The device has a control panel for operating and controlling the functions.

Risk of electric shock!  The device does not have the appropriate protection class for use in wet rooms. There is a risk of electric shock! Never use the device in wet rooms (e.g. in bathrooms and laundry rooms) and never immerse the device in water! The device comes equipped with a dual counter. The dual counter registers both the operating hours and the energy consumption and is certified according to the MID (Measuring Instruments Directive 2004/22/EC). The kWh display is factory-calibrated and may be used for accounting purposes. Contact your Trotec customer service.
Switching the device on
Once you have completely installed the device as described in the chapter Assembly and Start-up, you can switch it on.

  1. Switch the device on by setting the mains switch (11) to position I.
  2. Make sure that the mains switch button (11) is illuminated and that the status lamp (12) flashes slowly.
  3. Adjust the room humidity level with the rotary switch (10).
  4. Once condensate forms, the condensate pump is activated automatically. To activate the condensate pump manually, press the condensate outlet button (13). When the condensate pump is activated, the condensate outlet button (13) is illuminated.

Continuous operation mode
In continuous operation mode, the device dehumidifies the air constantly, regardless of the humidity. To start continuous operation mode, set the rotary switch (10) to Max.
Adjusting the room humidity level

  1. Set the desired humidity level via the rotary switch (10) of the hygrostat.
  2. After approx. 24 hours, check the humidity with a thermohygrometer.
  3. If the air is too dry (insufficient humidity level), turn the rotary switch (10) slightly towards MIN.
  4. If the air is too humid, turn the rotary switch (10) slightly towards MAX.
  5. Wait 24 hours every time you have changed the hygrostat setting and repeat the process until the desired room humidity is reached.
  6. Once the set room humidity is reached, the compressor and the fan of the device switch off automatically.
  7. If the set room humidity is exceeded, the compressor and the fan switch back on automatically. The room air is dehumidified.

Comfort function
The device operates particularly quietly in comfort mode. To activate the comfort function, set the FUNCTION flip switch (14) to I. To return to the power function, set the FUNCTION flip
switch (14) to II.
Automatic defrost
At low ambient temperatures, ice may form at the evaporator during dehumidification. The device carries out an automatic defrost by means of the hot gas feed. Here, a hot cooling agent is led into the iced evaporator for its surfaces to defrost. The hot gas automatic defrost system integrated with the device automatically switches on the defrost cycle at regular intervals. The duration of the defrost process can vary. Do not switch off the device during automatic defrost. Do not remove the mains plug from the  mains socket.

Temperature limitation (overheating protection)
The device comes with a temperature limitation. It serves to protect e.g. the compressor from overheating.

  • Upper temperature limit: +35 °C +/- 2 °C
  • Lower temperature limit: -3 °C +/- 2 °C

If the ambient temperature exceeds or falls below these limits, the device automatically switches off the compressor; only the fan will keep running. This feature protects the device from overloading since high temperatures and high humidity levels expose the device to extreme stresses. Moreover, drying is no longer economical at such high temperatures and also poses dangers for the inventory of the room to be dried. Please note that the switch-off function works with a switch-on hysteresis of -2 °C.

Info
The compressor always starts with a delay. This protects the compressor and thus increases its lifetime. When you switch on the device, the compressor will switch on with a delay of approx. 3 min. This delay is also enabled in hygrostat operation. If the room humidity exceeds the setting of the selection switch, the compressor will only switch back on after a delay.
