The dehumidier will run until the relative humidity (RH) is
reduced to the humidity control dial setting.
Quality humidity meters are available from the factory and
are recommended to accurately monitor humidity levels.
Refer to the options and accessories table in this document.
6.2 Fan Switch
Turning the impeller switch to “FAN ON” will cause the unit’s
internal impeller to run continuously, whether the unit is
dehumidifying or not. This function is desirable if the unit is
used for air circulation.
Turning the fan switch to “FAN AUTO” will cause the unit’s
internal blower to run only while the unit is dehumidifying.
7. Maintenance
CAUTION! NOTE: Do not operate the unit
without the filter or with a less effective filter. The
heat exchange coils inside the unit could become
clogged and require disassembly to clean.
7.1 Air Filter
The Santa Fe Advance2 ships with a standard MERV 8
pleated fabric filter. This should be checked every six
months. The pleated fabric lter can generally be vacuumed
clean several times before needing replacement. Operating
the unit with a dirty filter will reduce dehumidifier capacity
and efficiency and may cause the compressor to cycle on
and off unnecessarily. Replacement filters can be ordered
from your dealer or by calling 1-800-533-7533.
8. Service
WARNING! Servicing the Santa Fe
Advance2 with its high pressure refrigerant
system and high voltage circuitry presents a
health hazard which could result in death, serious
bodily injury, and/or property damage. Only
qualified service people should service this unit.
8.1 Technical Description
The Santa Fe Advance2 uses a refrigeration system similar
to an air conditioner’s to remove heat and moisture from
incoming air, and add heat to the air that is discharged. Hot,
high pressure refrigerant gas is routed from the compressor
to the condenser coil. The refrigerant is cooled and
condensed by giving up its heat to the air that is about to be
discharged from the unit. The refrigerant liquid then passes
through a filter/drier and capillary tubing which cause the
refrigerant pressure and temperature to drop. It next enters
the evaporator coil where it absorbs heat from the incoming
air and evaporates.
Santa Fe Advance2 refrigeration system
The evaporator operates in a ooded condition, which
means that all the evaporator tubes contain liquid
refrigerant during normal operation. A ooded evaporator
should maintain constant pressure and temperature across
the entire coil, from inlet to outlet. The mixture of gas and
liquid refrigerant enter the accumulator after leaving the
evaporator coil. The accumulator prevents any liquid
refrigerant from reaching the compressor. The compressor
evacuates the cool refrigerant gas from the accumulator
and compresses it to a high pressure and temperature gas
to repeat the process.
8.2 Troubleshooting
FOR THE HOMEOWNER:
n
If the unit does not work properly, please check the
following:
— Is the unit unplugged?
— Is power to outlet on? (check switch, if applicable)
— Is circuit breaker tripped?
— Is humidity control set? (turn to “ON”)
— Is air flow restricted? (check air filters and grill)
If none of the above, call dealer or 1-800-533-7533,
Ext. 8459.
FOR THE HVAC PROFESSIONAL:
n
No dehumidification. Neither blower, nor compressor run
with fan switch AUTO.
1. Unit unplugged or no power to outlet, circuit breaker
tripped.
2. Humidity control set to “Humid” setting.
3. Loose connection in internal wiring.
4. Humidity control is defective.
