Dehumidifier control

HOW DOES THE CONTROL WORK?
EXTERNAL CONTROL
• When the measured humidity is greater than the setting, the control will turn on the
dehumidifier and ON will blink on the LCD display.
• When the measured humidity falls 3% below the setting, the control will turn off the
dehumidifier and ON will stop blinking.
REMOTE CONTROL
• The control sends the dryness level to the dehumidifier.
• Once per Cycle Period (set by your installer in the dehumidifier), the dehumidifier will sample
the air in the area served by the dehumidifier.
• If the dew point of the incoming air is above the dryness level, the dehumidifier will turn on
and ON will blink on the LCD display.
• When the dew point of the incoming air falls below the setting, the dehumidifier will turn
off and ON will stop blinking.

CONTROL LIMITS

The control limits are used to make sure the dehumidifier does not run when conditions are
outside of the operating limits. Dehumidifiers are not as effective when conditions are outside
of the operating limits. For example, the dehumidifier will not remove much moisture when
conditions are cool and dry. Control limits allow the dehumidifier to work efficiently within the
operating range and turn off when conditions are outside of these limits.
• Dew Point Lower Limit: 40°F External Control
• Temperature High Limit: 99°F External Control
105°F Remote Control
• Temperature Low Limit: 50°F Remote Control
EXTERNAL CONTROL – SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
• The dehumidifier will turn off if one of the control limits has been exceeded.
• If the control measures a dew point below 40°F OR a temperature above 99°F, the control
will deactivate the dehumidifier output if actively dehumidifying, the dehumidifier will stop
*
dehumidifying, and ON and
will blink on the LCD screen (see Figure 2).
• The control will resume normal operation when conditions fall back within the control limits.
REMOTE CONTROL – SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
• The dehumidifier will turn off if one of the control limits has been exceeded.
• If the dehumidifier measures a temperature below 50°F or above 105°F, the dehumidifier
will stop dehumidifying.
• The control will resume normal operation when conditions in the remote space fall back
within the dehumidifier control limits.
CLEANING THE CONTROL
The surface of the Model 76CR Dehumidifier Control can be cleaned with water or a non-
abrasive household cleaner, including glass cleaner. Do not spray any liquid directly onto the
control. Spray water or a cleaner onto a soft cloth and gently wipe the surface of the control.
