Condensate Trap; Silencer - Miele DA 2450 Operating And Installation Instructions

 Where ducting is horizontal, it must
be laid to slope away at at least 1 cm
per metre. This is to ensure that
condensate cannot drain back into
the extractor.
 If the exhaust ducting is to run through
rooms, ceiling space etc. there may be
great variations in temperature
between the different areas. The
problem of condensation will need to
be addressed. The exhaust ducting
will need to be suitably insulated.

Condensate trap

In addition to insulating the exhaust
ducting, we recommend that a suitable
condensate trap is also installed to
collect and evaporate any condensate
which may occur.
Condensate traps are available for
125 mm or 150 mm ducting.
 When installing a condensate trap,
ensure that it is positioned vertically
and, if possible, directly above the
exhaust socket.
The arrow on the housing indicates
the direction of airflow.

Silencer

To achieve even further reductions in
noise levels, a special silencer (optional
accessory) can be fitted in the ducting
system.
Air extraction mode
The silencer not only reduces noise
from the motor outside the house, but
also sounds from outside (e.g. traffic
noise). For this reason, the silencer
must be positioned as close as possible
to the ducting exit .
