Air dehumidifiers have a coolant circuit similar to that of an air-conditioning unit. The air
dehumidifier, however, unites the two heat exchangers (compressor and evaporator
units), and there is only one fan to circulate the air.
Model LE 46 draws in the "moist" room air through the inlet grille and the subsequent air
filter where the moisture is "extracted" so that "dry" dry is returned to the room through
the outlet grille. The water extracted from the air is automatically collected in a tank. The
removable air filter cleans the intake air and therefore has to be cleaned regularly.
The regular air circulation induced by the dehumidifier diminishes the air humidity level
relatively quickly. The collected amount of water diminishes continuously as the air is una-
ble to take up new moisture.
The dehumidifying rate of the LE 46 dehumidifier depends greatly upon the conditions
prevailing at its point of operation:
Æ
room size
Æ
room temperature, and
Æ
relative humidity
The amount of water collected always increases with:
Æ
rising temperature and humidity levels
Æ
larger room volumes
Æ
the supply of new moisture
