The DR65A3000 is designed to be installed indoors in a space that is protected from rain and flooding.

Install the unit with space to access the front panel for maintenance and service.

Avoid directing the discharge air at people, or over the water in pool areas.

If used near a pool or spa, be certain there is no chance the unit could fall into the water or be splashed, and that it is plugged into a ground fault interrupt (GFI) outlet.

To ensure quiet operation, do not place the device directly on the structural supports of the home.

A drain pan must be placed under the unit if installed above a living area or above an area where water leakage could cause damage.

!replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

2.The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

?NEED HELP? For assistance with this product please visit http://www.forwardthinking.honeywell.com or call Honeywell Customer Care toll-free at 1-800-468-1502.1. Never operate a unit with a damaged power cord. If the power cord is damaged it must be

DR65A3000 Dehumidification System 33-00297EFS—01

About the DR65A3000 Dehumidifier

The Honeywell DR65A3000 ensures the home is maintained at proper humidity levels through its high performance and efficiency.

Benefits

Removes up to 65 pints (30.8 l) of water per day from the indoor air.

Built-in humidity control requires no additional wiring to an external control. Just plug in and go! Choice of external control options also available for centrally ducted control.

Energy Star rated.

Built-in transfromer circuit breaker.

Maintaining Ideal Humidity

Dew points and relative humidity (RH) affect the way your body

senses heat. Higher humidity levels cause the air to feel much hotter than the actual temperature. When maintained properly, you can run your cooling equipment less because dehumidified air feels cooler.

Ideal humidity is defined by industry experts* as being between 40-60% on an average annual basis. When indoor humidity exceeds 60%, the home is more susceptible to mold and mildew growth. DR65A3000 safeguards against excessive humidity in the home year-round.

WHAT THE AIR FEELS LIKE

HOW HOT THE HEAT-HUMIDITY COMBINATION MAKES IT FEEL.

EXAMPLE: AIR AT 90ºF WITH 50% RH FEELS LIKE 96ºF TO THE HUMAN BODY!

Install to Fit Your Application

Flex duct is recommended in connecting to the DR65A3000 collars to reduce vibration noise.

Duct Sizing: Use minimum 8” diameter round for duct lengths up to 25’ Minimum 10” required for lengths longer than 25’ Duct branches from the main inlet/ exhaust should be minimum 8” round for 2-3 branches, and 8” round or larger for 4 branches or more.

Isolated Areas: Effective dehumidification may require ducting to isolated or stagnant air flow areas.

Terminal Description

CAUTION: Low voltage hazard. Can cause equipment damage.

Disconnect HVAC equipment before beginning installation.

Two wiring terminal blocks are located on the exhaust end of the dehumidifier.

The six terminals for the left hand terminal block are:

FLOAT (2): External low-voltage water sensor or float switch

DHUM: Compressor and fan operation for dehumidification

R:24V output

FAN: Fan activation only for ventilation

C:24V output

NOTE: The outer screws on each terminal block secure the block to the chassis. They are not used for wiring.

The right hand terminal block in the above figure is used only for interlocking a

DR65A3000 with an equipment fan. The three terminals are:

Gt: Fan operation from thermostat Rf: 24V from equipment fan

Gf: Fan operation from equipment fan

External 24V devices can be powered from R and C terminals (20VA max.)

Wiring

Wire the DR65A3000 according to the diagram that applies to your desired operation.

Follow this diagram for ducted operation with the onboard dehumidistat.

Checkout

Apply power to DR65A3000. Turn the humidity control to a low RH% level to initiate a dehumidification call. Confirm that the DR65A3000 compressor and fan turn on. The furnace blower will also turn on to circulate air. This will take up to two minutes. Be sure to turn the control to the desired RH% or to Off when checkout is complete. Turning the humidity control to Off will turn the DR65A3000 off.

Cleaning

On an annual basis, perform the following maintenance requirement to ensure the dehumidifier runs at peak efficiency.

Unplug the dehumidifier before begin- 1 ning service. Remove magnetic access

panel to access the filter.

2

Remove filter and replace with new fil-

ter. Reinstall magnetic access panel.

Check the drain connection and drain 3 line to ensure it is clear of debris and

sludge. Ensure all hose connections are secure once maintenance of the drain lines is complete.

When service is complete, initiate a 4 call for dehumidification and check

that the compressor and fan activate. If using the VisionPRO IAQ or TrueIAQ controls, reset maintenance reminders.

Technical Description

DR65A3000 uses a refrigeration system similar to an air conditioner 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 causes the refrigerant pressure and temperature to drop. It next enters the evaporator coil where it absorbs heat from the incoming air and evaporates. The evaporator operates in a flooded condition, which means that all the evaporator tubes contain liquid refrigerant during normal operation. A flooded evaporator should maintain nearly constant pressure and temperature across the entire coil, from inlet to outlet.

Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting videos are available on Honeywell’s CPRO YouTube channel playlist.

CAUTION: Servicing the DR65A3000 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. Service should only be performed by a qualified service technician.

determine problem:

2.

Connect the R and FAN contacts from the main unit together; only the impeller

 

 

fan should run. Disconnect the wires.

 

3.

Connect the R and DHUM contacts from the main unit together; the compressor

 

 

and impeller fan should run.

 

4.

If these tests work, the main unit is working properly. You should check the

 

 

control panel and field control wiring for problems next.

 

5.

Remove the control panel from the mounting box and detach it from the field

 

 

installed control wiring. Connect the blue, yellow, and green wires from the

 

 

control panel directly to the corresponding colored pigtails on the main unit.

 

 

Leave the violet, white, and red wires disconnected!

 

6.

Turn on the humidity control. The compressor and impeller fan should run.

 

7.

If these tests work, the problem is most likely in the field control wiring.

Refrigerant Charging

If the refrigerant charge is lost due to service or a leak, a new charge must be accurately weighed” If any of the old charge is left in the system, it must be recovered before weighing in the new charge. Refer to the unit nameplate for the correct charge weight and refrigerant type.
