Quest 876

Installation, Operation and Maintenance Instructions

 

 

Safety Precautions

Read the installation, operation and maintenance instructions carefully before installing and operating this device. Proper adherence to these instructions is essential to obtain maximum benefit from your Quest 876 Dehumidifier.

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

The device is designed to be installed INDOORS IN A SPACE THAT IS PROTECTED FROM RAIN AND FLOODING.

Install the unit with space to access side panels for maintenance and service. DO NOT INSTALL UNIT WITH THE SERVICE PANELS INACCESSIBLE.

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

If used near a pool, spa or water; be certain there is NO chance the unit could fall into the water, be splashed and that it is plugged into an outlet that is a GROUND FAULT INTERRUPT protected circuit.

DO NOT use the device as a bench or table.

DO NOT place the device directly on structural members. Provide vibration isolation in order to minimize operational vibration and/or noise.

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

Make all electrical connections in accordance with the current edition of the NEC ANSI/NFPA 70 and any national and local codes or ordinances that may apply.

Do not obstruct the air intake and exhaust. Maintain a 4ft clearance around the air intake and exhaust.

This 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.

Not intended for use at altitudes over 2000m.

Quest 876

Installation, Operation and Maintenance Instructions

 

 

1. Intended Application for Quest 876 Dehumidifier

The Quest 876 Dehumidifier is designed to operate in temperatures between 56° and 110°F.

In order to efficiently control humidity levels, the area in which the dehumidifier is to be operated must be free of water intrusion or excessive fresh (outside) air infiltration. Before installing the Quest 876 Dehumidifier, water intrusion and air infiltration problems should be addressed or noted in calculations.

2. Registrations

The Quest 876 Dehumidifier units conform to unified standards: UL 60335-2-40, CSA 22.2 # 60335-2-40:2012 Ed. 1+4.

Quest 876

Installation, Operation and Maintenance Instructions

 

 

4. Installation

4.1 Location

The Quest 876 Dehumidifier can be installed in a variety of locations to meet the owner’s needs as listed below. In all cases keep the following cautions in mind:

It is designed to be installed INDOORS IN A SPACE THAT IS PROTECTED FROM RAIN AND FLOODING.

Install the unit with space to access side panel for maintenance and service. DO NOT INSTALL UNIT WITH ACCESS PANEL INACCESSIBLE.

Avoid discharging the air directly at people, or over the water in pool areas.

Be certain there is NO chance the unit could fall into water.

DO NOT use the Quest 876 Dehumidifier as a bench or table.

DO NOT place the Quest 876 Dehumidifier directly on structural members. Provide vibration isolation in order to minimize operational vibration and/or noise.

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

Do not obstruct the air intake and exhaust. Maintain a 4ft clearance around the air intake and exhaust.

4.2 Electrical Requirements

Electrical shock Hazard: Electrical power must be present for some tests. These tests should performed by a qualified service person.

High Voltage Connections

The Quest 876 Dehumidifier must be wired directly to the electrical service. The current draw under normal operating conditions is listed in section 3. A ground fault interrupter protected circuit is required.

Information required for proper electrical service installation and overcurrent protection may be found on the Dehumidifier nameplate. The unit power switch is a disconnect switch. Route power and ground wires through the electrical knockout hole. Electrical input power wiring must comply with all national, state, and local electrical codes. Make electrical connections according to the wiring diagram provided in this manual and inside the access panel of the Dehumidifier.

Low Voltage Connections

Install the external control in a central area of the structure where it will sense the relative humidity accurately. Avoid installing the sensor near HVAC supply registers, near exterior doors, or near pool or spa. The installer must supply the wiring between the Dehumidifier and the control panel. Be sure to safely route the control wiring to prevent damage during installaion. Be careful not to cross the wires when connecting the Dehumidifier and the Control.

The controls of the Dehumidifier are powered by a low voltage circuit (24VAC) and must NEVER contact or be connected to a high voltage circuit. The control terminals are labeled to prevent confusion.

For more information on controls, see section 5.
