    2. Operation 2.1 How the Quest PowerDry 385D Pro works Your Quest PowerDry 385D Pro has two separate air streams that run through it – Process (Fig. 1) and Reactiva- tion (Fig. 2). Note: Check for airflow at all inlets and outlets. DO NOT run unit if no airflow is detected.
  • Page 6: Universal Use Set-Up

    Note: Check for airflow at all inlets and outlets. DO NOT run unit if no airflow is Pro Set-up detected. 2.4 Location Note the following precautions when locating the Quest PowerDry 385D Pro: • It is designed to be used INDOORS ONLY. • If used on a water loss work site, plug it into GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPT (GFCI) OUTLETS • The air inlet on top and the side outlet must be at least 1 foot from walls and other air flow obstructions.
  • Page 7: Control Panel

    Quest PowerDry 385D Pro Installation, Operation and Maintenance Instructions If your location requires the use of an extension cord, use safe techniques in selection and connection. Such cords must be grounded and rated for carrying 11 amps: 14 gauge minimum for one extension less than 25ft in length or 12 gauge for one extension less than 50ft in length. 2.6 Control Panel 2.6A Power Switch The PowerDry 385D Pro has one control device, the power switch. When the power switch is moved to the “on” position your portable desiccant is dehumidifying. The machine will continue to dehumidify in all conditions until the power is turned off: There is no dehumidistat (see over-dry warning section 2.2). 2.6B Pilot Light The power indicator lamp illuminates to indicate that the PowerDry 385D Pro is functioning properly. This indicator is helpful when a job site is too noisy to know what equipment is running properly. At a glance from across the room the operator can verify that the PowerDry 385D Pro is operating as it should. 2.6C Hour Meter The hour meter will run whenever your PowerDry 385D Pro is on. This digital hour meter measures the cumulative time of operation in one-tenth hour increments. This non-resettable time is often used to verify hours on a job or to schedule maintenance. When the PowerDry 385D Pro is un-plugged the timer will continue to hold and display the cumulative hours run. 2.7 Ducting Connections Using excess duct length significantly reduces air flow volume through duct. This is true in any application. If the job at hand needs a short length of duct, cut a section to the appropriate length. If air flow is restricted by excess length, performance will suffer. The same can be said of excess bends in the ducting.
  • Page 8: Storage And Transportation

    DO NOT operate the unit without the filters or with less effective filters as the desiccant wheel inside the unit will become clogged and require disassembly to clean. 4 Service CAUTION: Servicing the Quest PowerDry 385D Pro with its high voltage circuitry presents a health hazard which could result in death, serious bodily injury, and/or property damage. Only qualified service people should service this unit.
