6. CONNECTION TO A DRAIN PIPE - LIFTING PUMP
(optional)
This dehumidifier can be connected directly with a fixed draining pipe; in this case,
the water tank must be removed to allow for the connection of the pipe to the
connection fitting.
For the connection, use one pipe
provided with a ¾” female fitting at one end.
In the machines with ball-cock, if the water tank is not fitted in, the machine will
not work.
Some machines have a switch in order to allow the functioning without water
tanks, in other machines one must modify the tongue-shaped device placed
near the ball-cock.
In the machines with a tank in the front, a special fitting, which is supplied with
the machine, must be placed on the right upper side of the water tank.
Machines with condensed water lifting pumps
This machine includes a condensed water lifting pump. This
allows condensed water to be drained into a floor waste or similar.
The pump will work automatically, controlled by a ball cock placed
inside the pump.
Before moving the machine, remember to purge water from water
tank.
If the pump cannot work correctly, the compressor stops and the
green light turns on. In this case, check the pipe situation.
Maximum head working pressure of the pump is about 3.5
metres.
7. PERIODICAL MAINTENANCE
AIR FILTER CLEANING
The only required periodical maintenance is the cleaning of the filter
once every month,
or more often if the enviroment
is very dusty or the dehumidifier is working for many hours every day.
Clean air filter by vacuuming or light hand cleaning.
After a few years running, it may be necessary to clean the heat exchanger (condenser) by using compressed air.
This operation must be done by a specialized technician. This cleaning will improve the performance and the long life of
the machine.
Note: You can acquire spare filters from your dealer's service.
