    2.4 Procedures to be adopted in the event of accidental release of refrigerant Ensure suitable personal protection (especially respiratory protection) during cleaning operations. If deemed safe, isolate the source of the leak. If the leakage is small and if adequate ventilation is provided, allow the refrigerant to evaporate. If the loss is substantial ensure that measures are taken to adequately ventilate the area.

    3. TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS 3.1 Unit description The dehumidifiers are built vertically, equipped with robust galvanised steel frame, properly designed to operate in combination with radiant cooling sy- stems. The units have been designed both to ensure the dehumidification of the air under conditions of air thermally neutral, ie at the same temperature at which they levy it, both in conditions of cooled air, managing very small air flow thus avoiding uncomfortable drafts typical of traditional air conditioning. The units, can operate even without pre and post cooling coils, this option could be very useful in middle seasons when it is necessary to dry but the air conditioning system is not in operation.

    3.1.11 Control and protection devices All units are supplied with the following control and protection devices: Water temperature sensor, that signals to the microprocessor the eventual overcome of the hot water temperature set point in the pre and post water coils during winter operation.

  • Page 14: Refrigerant Circuit Layout

    3.4 Refrigerant circuit layout The operation of the dehumidifier model GH is as follows: the fan takes the air from the ambient (7) and it’s made go through the filter (1) and the pre-cooling water coil (2) where it’s cooled and brought to a condition closed to saturation. Now it passes through the evaporating coil (3) where it’s fatherly cooled and dehumidified. At this point there are two possible modalities: • Modality with neutrum air: The air passes now through the condensing coil (5) which allows to condensate the 50% of the total gas, (the unit condensate the 50% on air with the heat exchanger (5) and the 50% in water with the heat exchanger (10)) then there is the postheating so that to avoid to send air in the ambient in neutrum thermic conditions. • Modality with cooled air:The unit condensates the 100% in water through the heat –exchanger (10). The air, then, go through the condenser (5) (disabled) where does not change its characteristics (temperature and humidity).

    3.9 Safety devices 3.9.1 High pressure switch The high pressure switch stops the unit when the condensing pressure is higher than the set value. The restart is manual (you need to press the button on the pressure switch) and it can be carried out only when the pressure is under the value indicated by the differential set. 3.9.2 Defrost thermostat It’s a device which signals to the electronic control, the necessity to make the defrost cycle.
  • Page 18: Health And Safety Considerations

    4.2. Health and safety Considerations The workplace must be kept clean, tidy and free from objects that may prevent free movement. Appropriate lighting of the work place shall be provided to allow the operator to perform the required operations safely. Poor or too strong lighting can cause risks.
  • Page 19: Storage

    4.5 Storage Units should be stored under cover and ideally, should remain in their packaging. The tools that are supplied for opening the electrics box should be formally transferred to the person responsible for the plant. 4.6 Unpacking Packaging could be dangerous for the operators. It is advisable to leave packaged units during handling and remove it before the installation.

  • Page 21: Assembly Of The Counter And Its Installation

    4.9 Assembly of the counter and its installation The dehumidifier needs for its proper installation, a casing made of galvanized steel recessed in the wall. The housing will always be supplied separately and removed. For his installation, proceed to the assembly by following the instructions in this drawing, using the provided screws. Before fitting the formwork into the dedicated niche , pre-slice kit must be open to facilitate its fastening (see photograph below).
  • Page 22: Installation Of Dehumidifier Into The Formwork

    Pre-slice panel Special Bolts to fix grilles at site supplied as standard. Formwork assembled 4.10 Installation of dehumidifier into the formwork The dehumidifier will be inserted in the formwork, possibly cutting the pre-slice placed in correspondence of the connections, in order to facilitate insertion. The final attachment to the formwork will be carried out on the right and left sides with screws, using the holes provided. 4.11 Condensate draining connections Condensate draining on dehumidifiers should be done with a rubber pipe passing fixed to a pipe fitting with an external diameter of 20 mm located on the lateral panel. On the condensate discharge pipe it must be installed a syphon with a minimum height equal to the suction pressure of the fan. 4.12 Water coil hydraulic connection The dehumidifier is connected to the cooled water plant to grant the inlet in ambient of air in neutral conditions. On the units GH-GHW the connection is done using the female gas attacks ½”...
  • Page 23: How To Vent The Unit

    For a correct functioning of the unit, it’s advisable to bleed carefully the circuit using the vent valve present in the unit. The inlet maximum water temperature allowed is 45°C. The inlet maximum water temperature allowed is 15°C. 4.13 How to vent the unit For a correct operation of the system it is mandatory to remove the air from the hydraulic circuit.
  • Page 24: Remote Mechanical Hygrostat Connection (Hygr.30)

    To allow the correct functioning of the dehumidifiers, it’s important to grant a constant air flow to the unit. This flow must be close to the nominal value (see the drawing). The maximum tolerance allowed is 20%. . The installer will take care to verify, during the start-up, the air flow to the unit and modify, if necessary, the speed of the fans. If the air speed through the evaporating coil exceed the 1,5÷2 m/s, the dehumidification capacity of the unit is strongly reduced and the required environmental conditions can be compromised. Speed wired in factory. 4.15 Remote mechanical hygrostat connection (HYGR.30) Hygrostat Common ø HYGRO-THERMOSTAT ø °C ø ø Summer ø Winter Summer/Winter switch (not supplied)
