Industrial Dehumidifier
Electrical Requirements
For 115V operation, a common grounded outlet on a 15 amp circuit is required. If used in a wet area, a ground fault interrupter (GFI) is required.
Built in Electrical Safety
For your safety and protection this appliance is manufactured with a grounded plug on its power cord. The power cord must be plugged into a properly
grounded receptacle. If a grounded receptacle does not exist, have one installed by a certified electrician. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong
on the power cord plug if equipped. We recommend that this electrical circuit/receptacle operate under a separate breaker or fuse.
If an extension cord is required, it must have a minimum of 14 gauge conductors if 25 feet long or less and 12 gauge conductors if greater than 25
feet long.
Limitations of Use
Temperature: 4°C to 35°C (40°F to 95°F)
Relative Humidity: 20 to 80%
Water Removal
The dehumidifier is equipped with an internal condensate pump to remove the water that is collected from the air. This allows the water to be pumped
20 feet with the attached hose. If the water needs to be pumped more than 20 feet above the unit, a second pump must be added to relay the water.
The condensate pump automatically purges for 20 seconds every four minutes.

with a grounded plug on its power cord. The power cord must
be plugged into a properly grounded receptacle. If a ground-
ed receptacle does not exist, have one installed by a certified
electrician. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong on the
power cord plug if equipped. We recommend that this electri-
cal circuit/receptacle operate under a separate breaker or
fuse.
If an extension cord is required, it must have a minimum of
14 gauge conductors if 25 feet long or less and 12 gauge
conductors if greater than 25 feet long.
Electrical Requirements
For 115V operation, a common grounded outlet on a 15 amp
circuit is required. The dehumidifier draws approx. 8 amps at
80°F, 60% RH. If used in a wet area, a ground fault inter-
rupter (GFI) is required.
Power Button (Fig. 1)
The dehumidifier is turned on or off by
pressing the power button. When the
dehumidifier is started, the hour meter will
display the cumulative hours.

dehumidifier is in defrost cycle. During this
period, the compressor is not running.
Defrost Cycle
When ice builds up on the coils, a thermistor activates the elec-
tronic control and defrost light. The compressor is turned off by
the thermistor temperature measurement. The blower will contin-
ue to run, causing air to flow through the evaporator coil and melt
the ice. When the ice is melted, the thermistor will end the defrost
cycle and the compressor will be started.
Disconnect dehumidifier from power supply. The hour meter uses
a battery backup for display when the dehumidifier is unplugged
and the hour button is depressed. To change the battery, it is nec-
essary to remove the four (4) screws from the control panel.

Troubleshooting
Service
A qualified refrigeration technician must service all refrigerant leaks.
The Unit is NOT working:
• Has the breaker tripped? – Reset breaker
• If in a wet area, is the unit plugged into a GFI protected circuit? – Excessive
moisture will trip GFI. Remove from area.
• Is the unit being run off a generator? - Check output does not fluctuate
as the unit will not operate at low voltage.
• If using an extension cord - Is the cord of the correct gauge for the
distance run? (14 AWG up to 25’ and 12 AWG over 25’). Note: Verify
voltage while unit is starting. Start up will cause the highest current draw
and largest voltage drop. Even if plugged directly to outlet there can be
a significant voltage drop. Never assume the voltage is ok without
verifying.
The unit shuts down and displays an error code.
ER 1: Overflow switch remaining closed for >2 minutes.
• Plugged or kinked drain hose – Remove obstruction
• Bad connection in pump circuit – Check connections
• Defective condensate pump – Replace
ER 2: Internal pressure switch indicates refrigerant pressure is too high.
• Air filter is dirty or plugged – Clean or replace air filter
• The coil is dirty – Clean the coil
• Loose or faulty electrical connections to pressure switch – check
connections
• Fan is not working – Replace
• Defective pressure switch – replace
The unit continually ices up: Note that some ice buildup on the evaporator coil
is normal but airflow should not be blocked.
• Is warm air blowing out the back of the unit? - No warm air, ambient
temperature may be too low. Raise temperature with supplementary
source.
• Is the air filter clean and airflow unobstructed? – Clean filter. Unit should
have a minimum of 10” clearance all around it.
• Dirty evaporator coil? – Clean coil.
Unit moves some water but not as much as expected:
• Air filter dirty or airflow obstructed - Unit should have a minimum of 10”
clearance all around it. Clean air filter and ensure adequate airflow/space
around unit.
• Evaporator coil dirty – Clean coil.
• Restrictive or kinked exhaust ducting (if used) – Straighten out ducting.
Fan does not run. Compressor runs briefly but cycles on/off:
• Loose connection in fan circuit – Check connections.
• Fan obstructed and not turning – Remove obstruction.
• Defective fan – Replace fan.
• Defective control board – Replace control board.
Cleaning
Disconnect power supply before cleaning
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock
External Cleaning
Use a non-flammable mild, non-abrasive soap and water solution. Wipe dry.
Internal Cleaning
Disconnect dehumidifier from power supply.
Light cleaning: Remove the air filter and spray evaporator coil with water.
Heavy cleaning: Remove two upper screws from front hood. Open hood. Spray water at coils. Close
hood and replace screws. (figure 8)
Care must be taken to insure coil fins are not damaged, as damaged fins can restrict airflow
and reduce the unit's ability to produce water.
Storage
Freezing temperatures and biological growth must be considered before storing the dehumidifier. To
prevent the biological growth, spray an evaporator cleaner on the coils and rinse into the drainage
system. You must also purge the excess liquid from the pump using the manual purge function to
prevent issues with freezing storage environments.

Deshumidificador industrial
Requisitos eléctricos
Para operar el deshumidificador a 115V, es preciso el uso de un enchufe normal con toma de tierra y circuito de 15 amp. Es preciso utilizar un
interruptor ade escape a tierra si la unidad se va utilizar en un área especialmente húmeda.
Sistema integrado de seguridad eléctrica
Para proporcionarle mayor seguridad, este electrodoméstico está fabricado con una clavija con toma a tierra incluida en el cable de toma de corriente.
El cable debe enchufarse a un receptáculo de corriente adecuado y con toma a tierra. Un electricista acreditado deberá instalar un enchufe con toma
de tierra si no dispone de uno. No corte ni elimine la patilla de toma a tierra de la clavija si ésta viniera incluida en el equipo. Le recomendamos que el
circuito eléctrico o enchufe opere bajo un cortacircuitos o fusible aparte.
En caso de que necesite un cable de extensión, el cable deberá contar con conductores de calibre mínimo de 14 gauge si es de 25 pies o más corto,
y de calibre 12 gauge si es más largo de 25 pies (sección de 3.31 y 2.08 milímetros cuadrados respectivamente).
Limitación de la utilizació
Temperatura: 4°C a 35°C (40°F a 95°F)
Humeda relativa: 20 a 80%
Extracción de agua
El deshumidificador incluye una bomba interna de condensación que elimina el agua sustraída del aire. Este sistema permite evacuar el agua hasta a
20 pies de distancia utilizando la manguera incluida. En caso de que necesite evacuar el agua a una distancia mayor a 20 pies, deberá instalar otra
bomba capaz de evacuar el agua a partir de este punto. La bomba de condensación evacua el agua de manera automática cada cuatro minutos y durante
20 segundos.

Built in Electrical Safety
For your safety and protection this appliance is manufactured
with a grounded plug on its power cord. The power cord must
be plugged into a properly grounded receptacle. If a ground-
ed receptacle does not exist, have one installed by a certified
electrician. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong on the
power cord plug if equipped. We recommend that this electri-
cal circuit/receptacle operate under a separate breaker or
fuse.
If an extension cord is required, it must have a minimum of
14 gauge conductors if 25 feet long or less and 12 gauge
conductors if greater than 25 feet long.
Electrical Requirements
For 115V operation, a common grounded outlet on a 15 amp
circuit is required. The dehumidifier draws approx. 8 amps at
80°F, 60% RH. If used in a wet area, a ground fault inter-
rupter (GFI) is required.
Power Button (Fig. 1)
The dehumidifier is turned on or off by
pressing the power button. When the
dehumidifier is started, the hour meter will
display the cumulative hours.
Pump Purge Button (Fig. 2)
In normal operation, the pump will automat-
ically empty the reservoir. Pressing this but-
ton allows manual emptying of the reservoir.
Press once, and the pump will operate for
20 seconds. Press and hold the button and
the pump will activate for 30 seconds.
Always manually purge the water reservoir
before transport or storage. Turn off the
power and allow the plugged in dehumidifier
to rest 5 minutes before the final purge.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
WARNING
Place dehumidifier inside area to be dried. Make sure all win-
dows and doors are closed to the outside and seal off the wet
area from any unaffected areas. Route condensate hose into
a drain, or a very large container. Press the On/Off button
(Fig. 1) to activate the dehumidifier.
OPERATION
Fig. 1
Fig. 2
Digital Hour Counter (Fig. 3)
The counter will accumulate and display the total running hours
of the unit in 1/10 of an hour.
Hour Button (Fig. 4)
Press the HOURS button when the dehu-
midifier cannot be plugged in and the hour
meter needs to be read. The digital hour
meter will display the last saved cumulative
time for ten seconds.
Defrost Indicator (Fig. 5)
The defrost indicator will light to indicate the
dehumidifier is in defrost cycle. During this
period, the compressor is not running.
Defrost Cycle
When ice builds up on the coils, a thermistor activates the elec-
tronic control and defrost light. The compressor is turned off by
the thermistor temperature measurement. The blower will contin-
ue to run, causing air to flow through the evaporator coil and melt
the ice. When the ice is melted, the thermistor will end the defrost
cycle and the compressor will be started.
Disconnect dehumidifier from power supply. The hour meter uses
a battery backup for display when the dehumidifier is unplugged
and the hour button is depressed. To change the battery, it is nec-
essary to remove the four (4) screws from the control panel.
Disconnect the old battery and replace with new battery. Replace
control panel and screws. Do not overtighten screws.
Water Removal
The dehumidifier is equipped with an internal condensate pump
to remove the water that is collected from the air. This allows the
water to be pumped 20 feet with the attached hose. If the water
needs to be pumped more than 20 feet above the unit, a second
pump must be added to relay the water. The condensate pump
automatically purges for 20 seconds every four minutes.

Solución de problemas
Servicio
Un técnico de refrigeración calificado debe reparar todas las fugas de
refrigerante.
La unidad NO funciona:
• ¿Se ha disparado el disyuntor? – Restablezca el disyuntor
• Si la unidad se encuentra en un área húmeda, ¿está enchufada en un
circuito protegido por un disyuntor diferencial? – La humedad excesiva
disparará el disyuntor diferencial. Aléjela de esa área.
• ¿Está la unidad conectada a un generador? - Verifique que la tensión de
salida no fluctúe ya que la unidad no funcionará con baja tensión.
• Si está conectada mediante un alargador - ¿posee dicho alargador el
grosor adecuado para su longitud? (14 AWG hasta 25 pies y AWG para
más de 25 pies). Nota: Verifique la tensión mientras la unidad está
arrancando. El arranque causará el mayor consumo de corriente y la
mayor caída de tensión. Aun estando conectada directamente al
tomacorriente puede haber una significativa caída de tensión. Nunca
suponga que la tensión es la correcta sin comprobarlo.
La unidad se apaga y muestra un código de error.
ER 1: El interruptor de desborde permanece cerrado por más de 2 minutos.
• Manguera de drenaje tapada o retorcida – Elimine la obstrucción
• Mala conexión en el circuito de la bomba – Verifique las conexiones
• Bomba de condensado defectuosa – Sustitúyala
ER 2: El interruptor de presión interna indica una presión del refrigerante
demasiado alta.
• El filtro de aire está sucio u obstruido - Límpielo o sustitúyalo
• La bobina está sucia – Límpiela
• Conexiones eléctricas flojas o defectuosas hacia el interruptor de presión
– Verifique las conexiones
• El ventilador no funciona – Sustitúyalo
• Interruptor de presión defectuoso – Sustitúyalo
La unidad se congela continuamente: Tenga en cuenta que es normal la
acumulación de cierta cantidad de hielo en el evaporador, pero no debe
bloquear el flujo del aire.
• ¿Sale aire caliente por la parte trasera de la unidad? - No hay aire
caliente, puede que la temperatura ambiente sea demasiado baja.
Aumente la temperatura mediante una fuente suplementaria.
• ¿Está el filtro de aire limpio y el flujo de aire sin obstrucciones? – Limpie
el filtro. La unidad debería tener un espacio libre de 10 pulg. libre de
obstáculos en todas las direcciones.
• ¿Está sucia la bobina del evaporador? – Limpie la bobina.
La unidad mueve algo de agua pero no tanto como se supone:
• El filtro de aire está sucio o el flujo de aire obstruido - La unidad debería
