Fan control
When the control board puts the
dehumidifier into operation, the
fan(s) switch on together with the
compressor.
Defrosting
The units feature an intelligent and
active defrosting function. If the
room temperature is below 20 °C,
the evaporator will start to ice up
after a short time.
If the evaporator probe registers
a temperature of less than 5 °C
on the evaporator surface,
the unit only continues to run
in dehumidification mode for
a further 30 minutes.
Once this time has expired, the
fans stop and the solenoid valve
for hot-gas defrosting opens.
When the evaporator probe
registers a temperature higher
than 5 ºC again, the solenoid
valve closes and the unit resumes
dehumidification.
Safety circuit
If the temperature exceeds 55 °C
on the condenser (e.g. due to a fan
failure or an overly high room
temperature (higher than 36 °C)),
the compressor stops automatically
to prevent an overload.
As soon as the temperature on the
condenser permits dehumidification
again, the unit starts up
automatically.
Unit function
Compressor control
The compressor has a 6 minute
restart delay. The delay period
must elapse before it is possible to
restart the compressor.
This safety function protects the
compressor against an overload
caused by overly high pressure
in the cooling cycle.
In order to prevent damage to the
condenser, the units are equipped
with a mechanism that prevents
the compressor being immediately
switched back on after it is
switched off via the mains power
supply.
The compressor does not switch
back on until after a waiting time
of approx. 30 seconds!
Operating LED
The multi-colour LED display is in
the background of the top grille
on the front panel. It indicates the
current operating state of the unit.
Legend of the operation LED colours
The LED illuminates “blue” and
stays that way when the unit is
connected to the mains power
supply (standby).
The LED illuminates “green”
and stays that way when the
compressor is in operation and
the unit is in dehumidifying or
defrosting mode.
The LED lights up “yellow” and
stays that way when the unit
is operating in wireless remote
control mode.
The LED lights up “red” when
a fault has occurred. Please refer
to the Troubleshooting chapter to
rectify the fault.
LED light function
If the unit was delivered with the
LED light function, the light can
be switched on and off using an
operating switch at the top right
corner of the panel. If designed as
an RGB-LED, a remote control is
also supplied.
