Maintenance

The maintenance intervals for the dehumidifier 

depend on the surrounding environment and 

installation site. Recommended maintenance 

intervals could therefore differ from one instal-

lation to another. Incorrect maintenance and 

service may result in reduced dehumidification 

capacity.

Filter

The dehumidifier is equipped with two separate 

filters, one for the process air and the other for 

the reactivation air. The filters are positioned at 

the respective inlets and will clean the air prior 

to entering the dehumidifier.
Intervals for cleaning or replacement of the 

filters will be determined by the amount of dust 

and particles in the air at the installation site.
We recommend that the filter is checked at least 

once a month, at least for the first year of a new 

installation.
Never operate the dehumidifier without the fil-

ters, as the rotor can be damaged by dust.

Rotor

The rotor is maintenance free. However should 

it be necessary to clean the rotor careful use of 

compressed air should be the first choice. With 

severe contamination the rotor can be washed 

with water.
Cleaning with water is no routine matter, please 

contact DehuTech AB or a local distributor prior 

to this procedure.
Check the rotor bearing and the rotor surface 

once a year.

Electrical motors

The electrical motors are equipped with ball 

bearings. The bearings are designed to last the 

life of the motor and therefore no maintenance is 

required.
Check the motors once a year for any abnormal 

sound.

Heater

The reactivation electric heater does not need 

maintenance, but should be checked twice a year 

for any dust or mechanical damage to the heat-

ing rods. Clean with a soft brush, or vacuum 

clean with dust. Gentle use of compressed air is 

another alternative.

Rotor drive belt

Check the belt tensioning at regular intervals. 

Adjust when needed by moving the tensioning 

support wheel closer to the desiccant rotor.

NOTE ! With all maintenance and service of the 

dehumidifier:

• 

Switch off the dehumidifier  approximately 

15 minutes prior to opening any service 

panel, allowing the heater to cool down.

• 

Disconnect the dehumidifier from main 

electrical supply by turning the external 

switch to the off position or by pulling out 

the power plug.
