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.
Depending on the air temperature and the relative humidity, the condensed water either drops continuously or only during the defrost phase through the integrated drain nozzle into the condensation tank below. It is fitted with a float to measure the filling level.
The device has a control panel for operating and controlling the functions.
Once the maximum filling level of the condensation tank is reached or in case the condensation tank is not installed correctly, the condensation tank indicator light (see chapter Operation) on the control panel is illuminated. The device switches off. The condensation tank indicator light only goes out again once the emptied condensation tank is reinserted.
Optionally, the condensed water can be drained by attaching a hose at the condensation connection.
The device can reduce the relative humidity of a room to approx. 30 %.
In addition, the device may also be used as a kind of clothes dryer to dry wet laundry in living or working spaces.
Because of the heat radiation generated during operation, the room temperature may rise slightly.

Transport

Please note that additional transport regulations might apply to devices containing flammable refrigerants. The equipment’s arrangement and the maximum number of components to be transported together can be gathered from the applicable transport regulations.
To make the device easier to transport, it is fitted with a carry handle.
To make the device easier to transport, it is fitted with wheels.

Before transporting the device, observe the following:

  • Switch the device off.
  • Hold onto the mains plug while pulling the power cable out of the mains socket.
  • Drain the remaining condensate from the device and the condensation drain hose (see chapter Maintenance).
  • Do not use the power cable to drag the device.
  • Only wheel the device on a level and smooth surface.

After transporting the device, proceed as follows:

  • Set up the device in an upright position after transport.
  • Leave the device to rest for 12 to 24 hours, so the refrigerant can accumulate within the compressor.
    Wait 12 to 24 hours before switching the device back on!
    Acting contrary might lead to compressor damage and a malfunctioning device. If so, any warranty claims will be voided.

Storage

Before storing the device, observe the following:

Disposal

The icon with the crossed-out waste bin on waste electrical or electronic equipment stipulates that this equipment must not be disposed of with the household waste at the end of its life. You will find collection points for free return of waste electrical and electronic equipment in your vicinity. The addresses can be obtained from your municipality or local administration. You can also find out about other return options that apply for many EU countries on the website https://hub.trotec.com/?id=45090. Otherwise, please contact an
official recycling centre for electronic and electrical equipment authorised for your country.

The separate collection of waste electrical and electronic equipment aims to enable the re-use, recycling and other forms of recovery of waste equipment as well as to prevent negative effects for the environment and human health caused by the disposal of hazardous substances potentially contained in the equipment.

Have the refrigerant (propane) disposed of appropriately and according to the national regulations by a company with the relevant certification (European Waste Catalogue 160504).
