Page 10: Identification Of The Unit
The air passing through the evaporator mat absorbs the humidity. The coarse dust filter retains dust particles up to 100 µm. If the Defensor PH15/PH15A is equipped with a Quattro filter it can retain dust particles up to 0.1 µm. In addition the activated charcoal layer in the Quattro filter removes unpleasant odour. The water level in the base tub is monitored by the level regulating valve in the water tank (Defen- PH15) or by the level controlled inlet valve (Defensor PH15A). -

Setting range: 30...90 %rH Factory setting: 45 %rH Notes on setting: The optimum reference value depends on various factors. For apartments we recommend a value of 40 – 45 %rH. Note: After initial commissioning or replacement of the vaporizer mat the humidification perform- ance of the Defensor PH15/PH15A will be slightly reduced be c ause the evaporator mat takes a few days to become fully saturated with water. Maximum performance is available after one week, approximately. Furthermore, the humidification performance depends on the ambient tem p e r ature. -

Page 24: Program Operation
Program operation The operation of the Defensor PH15/PH15A can be controlled via customisable operating programs. These programs allow to operate the unit at a preset time with the requested operating mode and fan step. This greatly facilitates the adaption of the Defensor PH15/PH15A to your particular require- ments (e.g. adjusted to the business hours and/or working time). Every program consists of a starting point (day of the week and hour), a reference humidity value, the operating mode and the desired fan step. Up to 2 starting points with individual programs may be set up per day. -

Page 28: 6 Maintenance
Maintenance Maintenance intervals The Defensor PH15/PH15A can only provide full humidification and purification performance if the unit is regularly cleaned and the wearing parts are replaced. The maintenance intervals mostly depend on the load of the ambient air, the water quality and the operating time. Please consider the intervals for cleaning and replacing the individual components in the table below as approximate values. If the room air is heavily contaminated the filters must be cleaned/ replaced more often. If the water is very hard the parts in contact with water must be cleaned more often. Month Warning 6 Filter change Note: If your unit is equipped with silver ionisation electrodes and if they are worn, slime will accu- mulate in the base tub and on the centrifuge. In this case replace the silver ionisation elec t rodes. -
