Functional principle of the air dehumidifier As it flows through or over the evaporator, the air stream is cooled to dew point. The water vapour con- denses, and is collected in a condensate trap from where it is drained off. Fig.

Condensate removal Depending on the air temperature and the relative humidity, condensed water will drip into the con- densate trap either continuously or only during the defrosting phases and can drain through the hose connection. Unit operation with hose connection Due to its high dehumidification performance, the unit is designed to drain the condensate directly into a suitable collection container via a sloping...
