The operation of the dehumidifier is to remove moisture from the air by having
it condense on the cold tubes of the evaporator coil. The air then passes over
the hot condenser coil and returns to the conditioned space slightly warmer
and dryer than when it entered the dehumidifier unit. To concentrate drying all
doors and windows should be kept closed.
Test for Correct Operation
DO NOT RUN THE MACHINE WITHOUT THE COVERS IN
PLACE FOR ANY LONGER THAN NECESSARY. DO NOT
REMOVE / REPLACE THE COVERS WITH THE POWER ON
Remove the cover by releasing the retaining bolts and follow the test
procedure laid out below:-
1. Set the adjustable humidistat to maximum.
2. Switch the machine to the on position; this will result in the compressor
starting to run and the fan blade starting to rotate.
3. When the compressor has been running for 20 minutes the coils located
above the drain tray will be evenly coated in frost. (If the ambient
temperature is above 25ºC the coils will be covered in water.
4. After the machine has been running for approximately 50 minutes the unit
will automatically enter into defrost. The defrost cycle lasts for
approximately 3 minutes; this will result in the frost on the coils melting and
dripping into the drainage tray.
5. After the defrost has finished the machine will return to normal operation.
6. Ensure the condensate drains away from the machine.
Setting the Adjustable Humidistat
The position of the humidistat depends on the application the CD100 is being
used for and the conditions within the area to be dried. The worse the
conditions within the area then the higher the humidistat should be set (i.e. the
machine will run for a longer period of time to ensure all the moisture is
reduced sufficiently). As a rough guide the humidistat wants to be set at
