3.8. Condensate Removal
The DRYCOOL™ HD removes large amounts of moisture from the air
and the device must be connected to a drain line that will carry away the
excess water. A trap in the drain line is strongly recommended.
1.
The unit requires a condensation drain that should be connected to a ¾” female pipe thread adaptor on
the front of the DryCool HD™. Install a proper P-trap in drain line and connect outlet to a suitable
drain.
2.
The trap must be constructed according to U.M.C. and/or state and local code requirements. Refer to
plans and specifications supplied with unit.
3.
The trap needs to be primed with water or cleaned prior to start-up and after any extended periods of
shutdown.
4.
Care should be taken to install the drain line with a continuous slop of 1" per 10' to assure proper water
removal.
NOTE:
The drain trap or its outlet should be checked and cleaned of debris annually or more often if deemed
necessary.
An optional condensate pump may be installed if a lift is required to dispose of the condensate. Please consult
your local supplier for a condensate pump kit.
For additional safety, Munters always recommends that a catch pan with
front switch be placed under the DRYCOOL™ HD.
3.9. Optional Germicidal UV Light
An optional active germicidal UVC system can be provided with the Munters DRYCOOL™ HD. UVC is a type
of ultraviolet (UVC) energy in the 260-nanometer frequency. The “C” wavelength is the most germicidal in the
UVC spectrum. The “C” wavelength targets the DNA of microorganisms, causing cell death or making
replication impossible. The UVC energy kills or inactivates microbes, eradicating surface and airborne mold, as
well as viruses and bacteria.
UVC is not an air filter. Rather it’s a UVC air purification system, based on Steril-Aire’s multi-patented
technology, used in thousands of schools, hospitals, and government and commercial buildings. This same
proven technology is now available for the structure.
The UVC air purification system then uses germicidal action to destroy the mold, bacteria and viruses that grow
and circulate in the air, before they travel around your space to trigger allergic reactions or spread disease.
Safety Notices: Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service, maintenance, or use can cause fire,
electrical shock, or other conditions which may cause personal injury or property damage. Consult your local
authorized dealer or Munters Corporation for additional information or assistance.
