INTRODUCTION
Designed for a wide range of applications, the ECO150 dehumidifier is a
rugged, industrial unit which utilizes an energy-efficient compressor and a
compact portable design to provide easy efficient drying.
The ECO150 has a number of special features:
•
Compact Size
•
High efficiency rotary compressor
•
Ebac’s “Hot Gas” defrost system
•
Exterior epoxy powder-coated finish
•
Provision for permanent drainage
•
Extra long power cord
The fan draws the moist air through the cold evaporator coil, which cools the
air below its dew point. Moisture forms on the evaporator coil and is collected
in the condensate tray, which is equipped with a permanent drain. The cooled
air then passes through the hot condenser coil where it is reheated using the
same energy removed during the cooling phase, plus the additional heat
generated by the compressor. The air is, therefore, discharged from the
dehumidifier at a slightly higher temperature with a lower absolute humidity
than that which entered. Continuous circulation of air through the
dehumidifier gradually reduces the relative humidity within the area.
The ECO150 dehumidifier is a rugged, reliable drying unit designed to operate
effectively over a broad range of temperature and humidity conditions. An
active hot gas defrost system, controlled by an electronic timer, guarantees
positive de-icing, thereby optimizing operation at low temperatures.

OPERATION
The following procedures should be followed to test the ECO150 for correct
operation:
1. After unpacking, examine all external features to confirm damagefree shipment. Report all defects and damage at once. Connect the
power cable to a grounded electrical outlet.
2. Check dehumidification process as follows:
TO ENSURE CONTINUED FULL EFFICIENCY OF THE
DEHUMIDIFEIR, MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES SHOULD BE
PERFORMED AS FOLLOWS:
A. Place unit on a level surface.
B. Start up unit by connection to mains supply and switching the on
off switch to the ‘I’ position.
C. Check that the compressor is running.
D. Leave the machine running for 15 minutes.
E. Observe the evaporator coils through the evaporator filter panel
i. If the air temperature is below 80° F, an even coating of
frost should cover the entire evaporator coil
ii. If the air temperature is above 80° F, frost and/or droplets
of condensed water should cover the entire
evaporator coil.
F. After continuous running time of approximately 55 minutes, the
unit will enter “Hot Gas” defrost mode for 5 minutes and then
automatically return to normal operation.
If, after carrying out the above procedures, the unit does not appear to
function properly, refer to the Trouble Shooting section, which follows,
or contact the Factory Service Center.
After using the ECO150, turn it off for 5 minutes to allow the condensate on
the coils to drain into the pump reservoir, then turn it back on and press the
momentary purge switch for twenty to thirty seconds to evacuate the water
from the pump reservoir.
ONCE THE UNIT HAS BEEN SWITCHED OFF, WAIT AT
LEAST FIVE MINUTES BEFORE RESTARTING.
