5. INSTALLATION
CTR 500 TT is a complete machine, ready for connection. All components required for opera-
tion are integrated and internally connected.
The local regulations for electrical installations must be followed.
Planning and design of a dehumidifying system covers:
- the dehumidifier’s position and connections
- the shape of the duct system
- distribution of the correct air volumes
- the hygrostat’s position and connection. This is described more in the next section.
a) Location of CTR 500TT
The dehumidifier must be placed in the crawl space so that the following requirements and
demands are satisfied:
- effective distribution of the dry air with as simple a dry air duct system as possible
- simple duct routing for supply of dry air and removal of wet air
- simple electrical connection
- space and access for easy filter changes
The dehumidifier is installed in the area to be dehumidified.
It is ideally positioned near a wall
on a bracket or shelf so that the filter is easy to access for replacement.
b) Duct system
Inward process air can be ducted or work with free suction. Dry air should be ducted.
Wet air
must be ducted so that the moisture laden wet air is vented outside the dehumidified area.
Always use
Corroventa´s installation kit
to achieve best function.
Wet air
In certain cases, condensation can occur in the wet air hose. To avoid this, the hose must be laid
with a fall from the machine. If a fall cannot be achieved directly from the machine one should
make a drainage hole in the lowest part of the hose, to prevent water running back into the
dehumidifier.
To further prevent condensation, the insulated sound damping hose provided in
the “installation kit” must be used.
