OPERATION
The fan draws the moist air through the refrigerated surfaces which cools it
below its dew point, removing moisture which is collected and removed. The
cool air then passes over the hot condenser, where it is repeated. With the
addition of other radiated heat the air is discharged into the room at a higher
temperature but a lower relative humidity than when it entered the unit.
Continuous circulation of the air in the room through the dehumidifier
gradually reduces the relative humidity in the room.
The Free Star dehumidifier is a robust, compact unit designed to control the
humidity in the enclosed space in which it is placed.
The unit is thermally protected and will switch off for a period if maximum
operating temperature of 40ºC is exceeded.

When a generator is used as the power source it is essential to check the
minimum KVA required in the technical section within this manual. The
generator should be started before the connection is made to the
dehumidifier.
