Delonghi PACF 130ECO, PACF 120ECO Instructions Manual

14

During the summer, optimum comfort is achieved with a temperature of between 24 and 27˚C

and about 50% relative humidity.
An air conditioner removes moisture and heat from the room where it is located. One advantage

of portable air conditioning units over fitted models is that they can be moved from one room to
another in the home or even transferred between different buildings.

The hot air in your room is passed through a coil
cooled by refrigerant gas, losing excess
heat and moisture before being
discharged again into the room.
In single unit models (Pinguino), a
small part of this air is used to
cool the refrigerant gas befo­re, hot and moist air is being
discharged outside.
In suitcase models, the cir­cuit is cooled using the air
outside.

Each Pinguino and Super­Pinguino can also be used
as a fan only.

ECO by Pinguino is the
latest generation of ecolo­gical air conditioners. Pin­guino does not contain
gases dangerous to the
earth's ozone layer
(CFC/HCFC). In addition, thanks
to the extreme efficiency of the
appliance, not only does it save you
money on your electric bills, but it saves
the environment by not negatively contributing
to the greenhouse effect."
