INDICATOR LIGHTS

ARROW BUTTONS

Use the up and down arrow button to set the desired humidity setpoint on the display screen.

   

The setpoint can be any number between 36-90%. Creating a setpoint means that when 

the indoor humidity is lower than the set point, the machine will stop automatically. 
Conversely, when the indoor humidity is higher than the set level, the unit will operate. 

NOTE: The humidty levels

 

displayed are approximate only (+/- 5%)

CONTINUOUS MODE

To switch into continuous mode, simply use the down arrow to set the humidity below 36%. 
The Cont light should iluminate green on the display board to indicate that you have 
successfully switched into continuous mode. The display screen will show“CO”.

When set to continuous, the dehumidifier will run constantly, regardless of the humidity level. 
To stop the machine, turn the unit off or switch back to normal humidistat operation. If you 
would like to switch back to normal humidistat operation, simply move the setpoint above 36%.

CENTRAL CONTROL

This mode is not applicable on the PureAiro DSC 55S.

AUXILLARY TERMINALS A5/A6

The A5/A6 on the teminal strip can be used as a safety switch for extermal condensate 
pumps.
It should be set to N/O (normally open) at the dehumidifier. If an E4 error occurs, switch the 
wiring to NC (normally closed).

HUMIDITY DISPLAY SCREEN

The display screen has two functions:

POWER INDICATOR LIGHT

CONTINUOUS MODE/AUTODEFROST LIGHT

This light indicates that the unit is properly powered on and ready to operate. Always make 
sure the unit is "off" prior to performing any service.

When this light iluminates green, it indicates that the dehumidifer is set to continuous 
operation mode.

1. When the unit is powered on, it shows the humidity of the space.
2. While setting the desired humidity level, the screen wil show the set humidity. After a brief 
    delay,the display will revert to current humidity level.

When the light glows red, it means the unit is in auto defrost mode and clearing the 
evaporator coil of any ice buildup.

NOTE: PureAiro DSC 55S Dehumidifiers can't sit directly on floor unless the unit is 
feeding directly into a sump pump next to it. Elevation is required to allow gravity flow 
of condensate water drain.

STEP #2: SET UP DRAIN LINE

The drain line should be routed to a suitable drain on the outside. It must flow down to a drain
without any loops, dips, or valleys.

Recommended Drain Option-Transition to PVC Pipe

Cut a piece of 3/4" OD PVC that is approx. 6”long.

Insert the open end of the tubing into the 3/4" pipe so that it does not extend into the elbow
fitting. For proper flow, a minimum downward slope of 1”per 10' run is required. 
(Note: If a proper downward angle is not possible, then it is recommended to use a 
PureAiro DSC 55S which includes an integrated pump. Alternatively you can use an 
external condensate pump).

Support the PVC tubing so that it maintains a 
smooth downward flow to drain.

Always test the drain before leaving the 
installation area.

STEP #3: PLUG UNIT INTO 15 AMP GROUNDED CIRCUIT.

Use this button to turn the dehumidifier on and off. Press once to turn machine on. You will 
hear 2 beeps and the 

  

light will illuminate green. Press the power button a second time and 

you will hear one beep as the machine shuts down. Note that there is a one minute fan delay 
on shut - down.
