Information about the device

Device description

The device serves the purpose of cooling the room air. It further filters and dehumidifies the air thus creating an agreeable room climate.

In ventilation mode the device also provides the opportunity of air circulation without cooling effect.

In dehumidification mode moisture is withdrawn from the air.

The device operates fully automatically and features a variety of further options, the device can, for instance, be switched on or off automatically with time delay via the timer function.

Handling the device can be accomplished via the control panel at the device or the supplied infrared remote control.

The device was designed for universal and flexible application.

Due to its compact dimensions it can be easily transported and used in all interior spaces.

The unit cools the room air by withdrawing warmth. The absorbed warmth is emitted to the outside via the exhaust air hose, cooled air is fed to the installation site by means of a fan.

Accumulating condensate trickles from the evaporator onto the hot condenser, there it evaporates and then is transported to the outside via the exhaust air hose.

4. If you see a thick layer of dust, have the inside of the device cleaned by a specialist company for cooling and air-conditioning or by Trotec.
5. Put the air filter back in.

Cleaning the air filter

The air filter has to be cleaned as soon as it is dirty. This is brought to light e.g. by a reduced capacity (see chapter Errors and faults).

Caution!

Ensure that the air filter is not worn or damaged. The corners and edges of the air filter must not be deformed or rounded. Before reinserting the air filter, make sure that it is undamaged and dry!

1. Remove the air filter from the device.

1. Clean the filter using a slightly damp, soft, lint-free cloth. If the filter is heavily contaminated, clean it with warm water mixed with a neutral cleaning agent.
2. Allow the filter to dry completely. Do NOT insert a wet filter into the device!
3. Reinsert the air filter into the device.

Condensate discharge

In cooling and dehumidification mode condensate is formed, which is mostly discharged via the exhaust air.

The remaining condensate is collected in a container within the housing. The condensate ought to be drained regularly.

If too much condensate accumulates, the device switches off and indicates this via the Condensation tank full LED (19).

1. Carefully transport or wheel the device to a suitable location for discharging the condensate (e.g. a drain) or provide a suitable collection container.

2. Unscrew the sealing cap from the hose connector (4).

1. Remove the rubber stopper from the hose connection.

2. Let the condensate run, until the condensation hose is completely drained. Alternatively, you can connect the supplied condensation drain hose (see dehumidification mode).

3. Reattach the rubber stopper to the hose connector. Check the rubber plug for tight fit.

4. Screw the sealing cap onto the hose connector (4).

⇒ The condensation tank full LED (19) will go out as soon as the condensate has been drained.

Refrigerant circuit

- The entire refrigerant circuit is a maintenance-free, hermetically sealed system and may only be maintained or repaired by specialist companies for cooling and air-conditioning or by Trotec.

Activities required after maintenance

If you want to continue using the device:

- Leave the device to rest for 12 - 24 hours, so the refrigerant can accumulate within the compressor. Wait 12 - 24 hours before switching the device back on! Acting contrary might lead to compressor damage and a malfunctioning device. If so, any warranty claims will be voided.

- Reconnect the device to the mains.

If you do not intend to use the device for a considerable time:

- Store the device according to the Storage chapter.
