OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
a) Why is the dehumidification capacity different from the advertised value?
• Dehumidification performance varies depending on ambient temperature and humidity
conditions.
• In high-humidity environments, the unit may remove moisture more quickly. In lower-humid-
ity conditions, the dehumidification rate decreases.
• This behavior is normal and consistent with industry testing standards.
b) Why does the humidity displayed on the unit differ from my hygrometer?
• All humidity measurement devices have accuracy tolerances and may require periodic
calibration. This unit uses a humidity sensor with an accuracy of ±5% RH.
• If your hygrometer has a different calibration offset (for example, reading higher while the
unit reads lower), noticeable differences may occur.
• Humidity levels can also vary within a room. For the most accurate comparison, place your
hygrometer near the unit’s air inlet; readings should become more consistent.
c) Why is there water on the floor or on the unit?
• Similar to condensation forming on a cold beverage, moisture may condense on the exterior
of the unit.
• Because the dehumidifier operates using refrigeration, its surface and base may become
cooler than the surrounding air.
• In very high-humidity conditions, water droplets may form on the unit or nearby surfaces.
This is normal and will subside as room humidity decreases during operation.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (REVISED)
background
d) Why does the unit take a long time to reach the set humidity or fail to reduce
humidity?
• Dehumidification capacity is limited by room size, airflow, and moisture infiltration.
• In large spaces or poorly sealed rooms, moisture from outside may continuously enter,
preventing the unit from reaching the set humidity level.
• Ensure all doors and windows are fully closed for optimal performance.
E) Why is the water tank leaking?
• There may be foreign objects on the sealing silicone ring at the bottom of the water tank.
Please clean the silicone ring thoroughly.

SAFETY WARNINGS
12
background
4. General work area
All maintenance staff and others working in the local area shall be instructed on the
nature of work being carried out. Work in confined spaces shall be avoided.
5. Checking for presence of refrigerant
The area shall be checked with an appropriate refrigerant detector prior to and during
work, to ensure the technician is aware of potentially toxic or flammable atmospheres.
Ensure that the leak detection equipment being used is suitable for use with all applicable
refrigerants, i. e. non-sparking, adequately sealed or intrinsically safe.
6. Presence of fire extinguisher
If any hot work is to be conducted on the refrigerating equipment or any associated
parts, appropriate fire extinguishing equipment shall be available to hand. Have a dry
powder or CO2 fire extinguisher adjacent to the charging area.
7.No ignition sources
No person carrying out work in relation to a REFRIGERATING SYSTEM which involves
exposing any pipe work shall use any sources of ignition in such a manner that it may lead
to the risk of fire or explosion. All possible ignition sources, including cigarette smoking,
should be kept sufficiently far away from the site of installation, repairing, removing and
disposal, during which refrigerant can possibly be released to the surrounding space. Prior
to work taking place, the area around the equipment is to be surveyed to make sure that
there are no flammable hazards or ignition risks. “No Smoking” signs shall be displayed.
8. Ventilated area
Ensure that the area is in the open or that it is adequately ventilated before breaking
into the system or conducting any hot work. A degree of ventilation shall continue during
the period that the work is carried out. The ventilation should safely disperse any
released refrigerant and preferably expel it externally into the atmosphere.
9. Checks to the refrigerating equipment
Where electrical components are being changed, they shall be fit for the purpose and to
the correct specification. At all times the manufacturer’s maintenance and service
guidelines shall be followed. If in doubt, consult the manufacturer’s technical department
for assistance.
The following checks shall be applied to installations using
FLAMMABLE REFRIGERANTS:
--the actual REFRIGERANT CHARGE is in accordance with the room size within which the
refrigerant containing parts are installed;
--the ventilation machinery and outlets are operating adequately and are not obstructed;
--if an indirect refrigerating circuit is being used, the secondary circuit shall be checked for
the presence of refrigerant;
--marking to the equipment continues to be visible and legible. Markings and signs that are
illegible shall be corrected;
--refrigerating pipe or components are installed in a position where they are unlikely to be
exposed to any substance which may corrode refrigerant containing components, unless
the components are constructed of materials which are inherently resistant to being
corroded or are suitably protected against being so corroded.
10. Checks to electrical devices
Repair and maintenance to electrical components shall include initial safety checks and
component inspection procedures. If a fault exists that could compromise safety, then no
electrical supply shall be connected to the circuit until it is satisfactorily dealt with. If
the fault cannot be corrected immediately but it is necessary to continue operation, an
adequate temporary solution shall be used. This shall be reported to the owner of the
equipment so all parties are advised.
Initial safety checks shall include:
●that capacitors are discharged: this shall be done in a safe manner to avoid possibility of
sparking;
●that no live electrical components and wiring are exposed while charging, recovering or
purging the system;
●that there is continuity of earth bonding.
SAFETY WARNINGS
13
background
11.Repairs to sealed components
1) During repairs to sealed components, all electrical supplies shall be disconnected from the
equipment being worked upon prior to any removal of sealed covers, etc. If it is absolutely
necessary to have an electrical supply to equipment during servicing, then a permanently
operating form of leak detection shall be located at the most critical point to warn of a
potentially hazardous situation.
2) Sealed electrical components shall be replaced.
12.Repair to intrinsically safe components
Do not apply any permanent inductive or capacitance loads to the circuit without ensuring
that this will not exceed the permissible voltage and current permitted for the equipment
in use. Intrinsically safe components must be replaced. Replace components only with
parts specified by the manufacturer. Other parts may result in the ignition of refrigerant
in the atmosphere from a leak.Intrinsically safe components must be replaced.
13.Cabling
Check that cabling will not be subject to wear, corrosion, excessive pressure, vibration,
sharp edges or any other adverse environmental effects. The check shall also take into
account the effects of aging or continual vibration from sources such as compressors or
fans.
14.Detection of flammable refrigerants
Under no circumstances shall potential sources of ignition be used in the searching for or
detection of refrigerant leaks. A halide torch (or any other detector using a naked flame)
shall not be used. The following leak detection methods are deemed acceptable for all
refrigerant systems. Electronic leak detectors may be used to detect refrigerant leaks
but, in the case of FLAMMABLE REFRIGERANTS, the sensitivity may not be adequate, or
may need re-calibration. (Detection equipment shall be calibrated in a refrigerant-free
area.) Ensure that the detector is not a potential source of ignition and is suitable for the
refrigerant used. Leak detection equipment shall be set at a percentage of the LFL of the
refrigerant and shall be calibrated to the refrigerant employed, and the appropriate
percentage of gas (25 % maximum) is confirmed. Leak detection fluids are also suitable for
use with most refrigerants but the use of detergents containing chlorine shall be avoided
as the chlorine may react with the refrigerant and corrode the copper pipe-work. NOTE
Examples of leak detection fluids are
– bubble method,
– fluorescent method agents
If a leak is suspected, all naked flames shall be removed/extinguished.
If a leakage of refrigerant is found which requires brazing, all of the refrigerant shall be
recovered from the system, or isolated (by means of shut off valves) in a part of the
system remote from the leak. Removal of refrigerant shall be according to Removal and
evacuation.
15.Removal and evacuation
When breaking into the refrigerant circuit to make repairs -or for any other
purpose-conventional procedures shall be used. However, for flammable refrigerants it is
important that best practice be followed, since flammability is a consideration.
The following procedure shall be adhered to:
--safely remove refrigerant following local and national regulations;
--purge the circuit with inert gas(optional for A2L);
--evacuate(optional for A2L);
-- continuously flush or purge with inert gas when using flame to open circuit ;and
--open the circuit .
SAFETY WARNINGS
14
background
The refrigerant charge shall be recovered into the correct recovery cylinders if venting is
not allowed by local and national codes. For appliances containing flammable refrigerants,
the system shall be purged with oxygen-free nitrogen to render the appliance safe for
flammable refrigerants. This process might need to be repeated several times. Compressed
air or oxygen shall not be used for purging refrigerant systems.For appliances containing
flammable refrigerants, refrigerants purging shall be achieved by breaking the vacuum in
the system with oxygen-free nitrogen and continuing to fill until the working pressure is
achieved, then venting to atmosphere, and finally pulling down to a vacuum (optional for
A2L). This process shall be repeated until no refrigerant is within the system (optional for
A2L). When the final oxygen-free nitrogen charge is used, the system shall be vented down
to atmospheric pressure to enable work to take place.The outlet for the vacuum pump
shall not be close to any potential ignition sources, and ventilation shall be available.
16. Charging procedures
In addition to conventional charging procedures, the following requirements shall be
followed.
●Ensure that contamination of different refrigerants does not occur when using charging
equipment. Hoses or lines shall be as short as possible to minimise the amount of refriger-
ant contained in them.
●Cylinders shall be kept in an appropriate position according to the instructions.
●Ensure that the REFRIGERATING SYSTEM is earthed prior to charging the system with
refrigerant.
●Label the system when charging is complete (if not already).
●Extreme care shall be taken not to overfill the REFRIGERATING SYSTEM.
Prior to recharging the system, it shall be pressure-tested with the appropriate purging
gas. The system shall be leak-tested on completion of charging but prior to commissioning.
A follow up leak test shall be carried out prior to leaving the site.
17.Decommissioning
Before carrying out this procedure, it is essential that the technician is completely
familiar with the equipment and all its detail. It is recommended good practice that all
refrigerants are recovered safely. Prior to the task being carried out, an oil and refriger-
ant sample shall be taken in case analysis is required prior to re-use of recovered refriger-
ant. It is essential that electrical power is available before the task is commenced.
a) Become familiar with the equipment and its operation.
b) Isolate system electrically.
c) Before attempting the procedure, ensure that:
●mechanical handling equipment is available, if required, for handling refrigerant cylinders;
●all personal protective equipment is available and being used correctly;
●the recovery process is supervised at all times by a competent person;
●recovery equipment and cylinders conform to the appropriate standards.
d) Pump down refrigerant system, if possible.
e) If a vacuum is not possible, make a manifold so that refrigerant can be removed from
various parts of the system.
f) Make sure that cylinder is situated on the scales before recovery takes place.
g) Start the recovery machine and operate in accordance with instructions.
h) Do not overfill cylinders (no more than 80 % volume liquid charge).
h) Do not overfill cylinders (no more than 80 % volume liquid charge).
i) Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the cylinder, even temporarily.
j) When the cylinders have been filled correctly and the process completed, make sure that
the cylinders and the equipment are removed from site promptly and all isolation valves on
the equipment are closed off.
k) Recovered refrigerant shall not be charged into another REFRIGERATING SYSTEM unless
it has been cleaned and checked.
18. Labelling
Equipment shall be labelled stating that it has been de-commissioned and emptied of
refrigerant. The label shall be dated and signed. For appliances containing FLAMMABLE
REFRIGERANTS, ensure that there are labels on the equipment stating the equipment
contains FLAMMABLE REFRIGERANT.

19. Recovery
When removing refrigerant from a system, either for servicing or decommissioning, it is
recommended good practice that all refrigerants are removed safely. When transferring
refrigerant into cylinders, ensure that only appropriate refrigerant recovery cylinders are
employed. Ensure that the correct number of cylinders for holding the total system charge
is available. All cylinders to be used are designated for the recovered refrigerant and
labelled for that refrigerant (i. e. special cylinders for the recovery of refrigerant).
Cylinders shall be complete with pressure-relief valve and associated shut-off valves in
good working order. Empty recovery cylinders are evacuated and, if possible, cooled
before recovery occurs. The recovery equipment shall be in good working order with a set
of instructions concerning the equipment that is at hand and shall be suitable for the
recovery of the flammable refrigerant. If in doubt, the manufacturer should be consulted.
In addition, a set of calibrated weighing scales shall be available and in good working
order. Hoses shall be complete with leak-free disconnect couplings and in good condition.
The recovered refrigerant shall be processed according to local legislation in the correct
recovery cylinder, and the relevant waste transfer note arranged. Do not mix refrigerants
in recovery units and especially not in cylinders. If compressors or compressor oils are to
