  • Page 17: Configuration Features

    2.5 Configuration features This chapter includes information about functions and components that can be added when ordering an MX² dehumidifier. 2.5.1 Insulated process air inlet All dehumidifier units supplied with pre-cooled process air should have insulated process air inlet. The process air sector in front of the rotor has an internal lining of isolation to prevent condensation on the unit.
  • Page 18: Bypass Damper

    2.5.3 Bypass damper MX² 30 MX² 35-95 Figure 2.7 Handle for bypass damper An installed bypass damper kit allows a fixed airflow to be used when the process airflow exceeds the maximum rotor flow capacity. The bypass function consists of an adjustable damper positioned in the bypass airflow channel.

  • Page 21: Installation

    3. Remove all packaging material from the unit, and make sure that no damage has occurred during transportation. 4. Any visible damage must be reported in writing to Munters within 5 days and prior to installation of the unit. 5. Dispose of the packaging material according to local regulations.
  • Page 22: Scope Of Delivery - Steam Reactivation System

    Refer to Munters for advice if in doubt. NOTE! If there is a need for reduction of vibrations from the dehumidifier, contact Munters for instructions. Refer to standard EN1299+A1:2008. See section 8.3, Dimensions and service space for unit and service dimensions.
  • Page 23: Foundation

    3.7 Foundation The dehumidifier must be installed on a level floor, or platform, which has been designed with a floor loading capacity capable of supporting the machine’s weight. If the maximum floor loading weight is not exceeded, special foundations are not required. When the dehumidifier has been installed, it should be checked that it is level.
  • Page 24: Steam Regulation

    3.8 Steam regulation NOTE! Steam regulation setting must only be changed by authorised personnel. Contact Munters for more information. For dehumidifiers with steam reactivation heater, the dehumidification capacity/reactivation heater effect can be regulated according to the two different principles described below.
  • Page 25 A non-return valve must be installed in the condensate return line to prevent condensate from returning ■ to the heater and to protect against any hammering in the condensate system. This applies if the condensate return line has condensate from more than one steam trap as there could be differing pressures and temperatures and/or to protect against return flow when condensate is "lifted"...

  • Page 27: Set-Up And Running Checks

    NOTE! All pipework must be supported to ensure minimal strain on the connections. NOTE! It is important that the control valve does not open too quickly, including during "On/Off" control as this might damage the steam heater and other components. WARNING! When the steam control valve opens, no condensate must remain in the steam heater.
  • Page 28 Horizontal wet air ducts must be installed with a slight decline (away from the dehumidifier) to drain ■ away possible condensation. Suitable condensation drains should be installed at low points in the wet air outlet duct, see Figure 3.5 . Ensure that access for operation and servicing is not restricted when designing and installing ducting.
  • Page 29: Duct For Outdoor Air Inlet

    3.11.2 Duct for outdoor air inlet When bringing ambient air from outdoors into the dehumidifier, the inlet duct opening must be located sufficiently high above ground level to prevent dust and debris from entering. The ducting must be designed to prevent rain and snow from being drawn into the dehumidifier. The air inlet must be located away from possible contaminants such as engine exhaust gases, steam and harmful vapours.
