Device Description
The units are designed for univer-
sal and problem-free dehumidifica-
tion.
Owing to their compact size, they
are easy to transport and install.
The units operate according to the
condensation principle and feature
a hermetically sealed refrigeration
system, low noise and mainte-
nance circulating fan, operating
hour counter and connecting cable
with plug.
Fully automatic electronic con-
trol, condensate container with
integrated overflow protection
(not with AMT 110-E) as well as
connections for direct condensate
removal ensure trouble-free con-
tinuous use.
The units comply with the fun-
damental safety and health re-
quirements of the permanent EU
regulations.
The units are reliable and easy to
operate.
unit applications
The units are used wherever
dehumidication is necessary
and consequential damage (e.g.
through mould formation) is to be
prevented.
The units are also suitable for dry-
ing and dehumidification of:
■
New buildings, industrial build-
ings
■
Cellar rooms, storage rooms
■
Archives, laboratories
■
Weekend homes,
caravans
■
Bathrooms, washrooms and
changing rooms, etc.
As soon as the frost (ice) has de-
frosted and the temperature at the
sensor rises again, the unit switch-
es back to normal dehumidification
operation.
At a sufficiently high room tem-
perature, the gill surface is not cold
enough for the formation of frost
so that defrosting is unnecessary.
This makes dehumidifiers particu-
larly economical in operation.
At the condenser (heat exchang-
er), the cooled and dehumidified
air is reheated and blown back into
the room via the air outlet.
The conditioned, drier and heated
air mixes with the room air again.
Due to the constant circulation of
the room air through the unit, the
relative humidity in the room is
gradually reduced to the required
humidity (% R.H).
Depending on the room tem-
perature and humidity, only about
30-40% of electrical energy is
required depending on the unit
cooling capacity.
Sequence of functions
The electronic control is activated
when the unit is switched on.
The green pilot light in the switch
illuminates.
Owing to automatic pressure
equalisation, the units start with
a delay of about 10 seconds and
then operate in continuous duty.
The circulating fan sucks the moist
room air via the dust filter, evapo-
rator and downstream condenser.
At the cold evaporator, heat is
extracted from the room air and
cooled to below the dew point.
The water vapour contained in the
room air deposits as condensate or
frost on the evaporator fins.
When the temperature sensor
measures a specific minimum value
here, a timer is activated with a
delay of 30 minutes.
If during this time the evaporator
temperature does not rise again,
the cooling circuit is switched to
hot gas defrost after the time has
elapsed.
During the defrost phase, the cir-
culating fan is off.
