Installation, Operation and Maintenance Instructions
The installer must supply the wiring between the Quest Dry 70 and the control panel. Be sure to safely route
the control wiring to prevent damage during installation.
CAUTION
Do not cross wires when connecting the Quest Dry 70 and the remote control panel or damage to the
transformer may result. The remote controls of the Quest Dry 70 are powered by a low voltage circuit
(24VAC) and must NEVER contact or be connected to a high voltage circuit.
The control wires leaving the Quest Dry 70 and the remote control panels are numbered and color-coded to
prevent confusion. Some of the control wires leaving the Quest Dry 70 may not be used with certain control
panels and should be left unconnected with wire nuts taped onto the stripped ends for safety. Be sure to
consult the electrical schematic in this manual or inside the access panel of the Quest Dry 70 before making
control connections.
4.3 Condensate (Water) Removal
CAUTION
A trap in the drain line is preferred, but not required for the unit to drain properly. Local codes may require
a trap. Use care to keep the pipe assembly as flat to the floor as possible. Kinks and/or humps will prevent
proper drainage.
The Quest Dry 70 generates condensate. Install a 3/4" male nominal pipe thread adapter to the drain pan.
It is necessary to assemble your own drain pipe assembly utilizing 3/4" PVC pipe to get the condensate to a
floor or other drain. Pipe is commonly available in 10’ lengths from building supply, plumbing or hardware
stores. Slope to drain should be at least 1” drop for every 10’ of run.
4.3A Lifting Condensate
A condensate pump may installed if lift is required to dispose of the condensate.
4.3B Condensate Pump Kit (4030113)
A condensate pump kit is available from the factory for use
with the Quest Dry 70 and provides 15' of lift. Condensate is
automatically pumped to a remote location when the water level
in the pump’s reservoir rises to close the float switch. The pump
also contains a safety float switch. The white leads from this switch
extend from beneath the pump cover. This switch should be
installed in series with the field wire that connects the blue (#5)
lead from the Quest Dry 70 to the the control panel. If the pump
fails, this switch opens the compressor control circuit and stops
water production before the reservoir overflows. The Quest Dry 70
will continue to ventilate or circulate air as normal, but will not
dehumidify until this switch closes.
4.4 Converting to Vertical Discharge Airflow
The QuestDry 70 is shipped from the factory with the exhaust
panel of the cabinet configured for horizontal air discharge. The cabinet can be easily converted to vertical
air discharge. To convert the air discharge from horizontal to vertical, follow these steps:
