Device description
When combined with a dehumidifier, the external condensate
pump can be used for failure-free continuous operation. With its
robust and corrosion-resistant housing it is particularly suited
for combination with the pool dehumidifiers of Trotec's DS and
DHseries, but can also be used with other dehumidifiers
without a hitch.
The fully automatic condensate pump can be installed quickly
and without difficulty and is specifically designed for pumping
off condensation water. It is particularly suited for applications
with long water discharge distances or for a longer permanent
drying of unattended rooms.
The power for the dehumidifier should be supplied via the
condensate pump. To do so, either use the socket of the
condensate pump(6), or directly wire the dehumidifier to the
pump via the connector for direct supply(5). For direct supply,
the internal plug connections and a female connector are ready
to install.
If the condensate cannot be discharged from the dehumidifier
(e.g. due to a clogged line), the condensate pump will switch off
the connected dehumidifier automatically. Once the fault has
been cleared, the dehumidifier will be switched back on (see
also Errors and faults).
The pump is suitable for a pump height of up to 4.3metres.
The device can be mounted to the wall or positioned on the floor
for operation.

Wall mounting (optional)
I. III.II.
Assemble the device as follows:
1. Mark the positions for the bore holes on the wall.
2. Drill the holes into the wall at the marked positions.
3. Insert appropriate wall plugs into the bore holes depending
on the type of wall. In doing so, please make sure that the
screws protrude approx. 1cm from the wall plugs so that
the device can be attached properly.
Mains supply of the dehumidifier
Warning of electrical voltage
Work on the electrical components must only be
carried out by an authorised specialist company!
Warning of electrical voltage
Before any work on the device, remove the mains plug
from the mains socket!
Hold onto the mains plug while pulling the power cable
out of the mains socket.
You can insert the plug of the dehumidifier into the socket(6) on
the pump. In the event of a failure, the pump switches the
dehumidifier off.
However, the mains cable of the dehumidifier can also be
directly wired to the electrical system of the pump. To do so,
please proceed as follows:
1. Loosen and remove the screw(9) from the device.
2. Slightly push the housing cover(1) to the right to release it
from the suspension of the housing(4).
3. Carefully remove the housing cover(1). Please note that
there is a protective conductor connected.
4. Hook the device into the screws on the wall.
5. Slightly shift the device downwards.
6. Make sure that the device is attached securely.
4. Pull the protective conductor off the housing cover(1).
6 EN
DS/DH series
5. Observe the dehumidifier's technical data and use the
suitable connection plug.
ð white connection plug for 230V.
ð black connection plug for >230V
(potential-free contact).
10. Then fit the housing cover(1) and secure it with the
screw(9).
Hose connections
1. Connect the condensation drain hose of the dehumidifier to
the feed hose connection(10). If required, use the supplied
adapter sleeve and hose clamps.
6. Guide the mains cable of the dehumidifier through the
connector for direct supply(5).
7. Connect the mains cable of the dehumidifier properly. Pay
attention to the wiring diagram in the Technical annex.
8. Tighten the cable gland at the connector for direct
supply(5).
9. Connect the protective conductor to the housing cover(1)
again.
2. Firmly insert the supplied hose (12mm diameter) into the
quick coupling at the discharge hose connection(8).
3. Completely unwind the hose and guide the other end to a
water drain.
Note
Avoid kinking or pinching the hose. The hose end must
not lay in the water.
EN 7
DS/DH series
Connecting the power cable
• Insert the mains plug into a properly secured mains
socket.
During operation, the pump runs fully automatically and the
operating control lamp(3) is illuminated.
Shutdown
Warning of electrical voltage
Do not touch the mains plug with wet or damp hands.
Note
When switching the dehumidifier off, wait for approx.
30 minutes. During this time, the residual water flows
of out of dehumidifier's evaporator and to the pump.
After this waiting period, you can shut down the pump.
• Hold onto the mains plug while pulling the power cable out
of the mains socket.
• If necessary, remove the condensation drain hose and any
residual fluid from it.
• Clean the device according to the Maintenance chapter.
• Store the device according to the Storage chapter.
Errors and faults
The device has been checked for proper functioning several
times during production. If malfunctions occur nonetheless,
check the device according to the following list.
The operating light of the pump is not illuminated:
• Check the power connection.
• If the device is not starting, have the electrics checked by
a specialist company or by Trotec.
The pump does not operate:
• Check whether the dehumidifier produces condensate.
The condensate is not discharged correctly(leak):
• Check all connections and hoses for damages and correct
installation.
• Check the hoses and connections for dirt and kinks. The
hoses must be clean and without kinks(see chapter
Maintenance).
Your device still does not operate correctly after these
checks?
Please contact the customer service. If necessary, bring the
device to an authorized specialist electrical company or to
Trotec for repair.

Maintenance
Activities required before starting maintenance
Warning of electrical voltage
Do not touch the mains plug with wet or damp hands.
• Hold onto the mains plug while pulling the power cable out
of the mains socket.
Cleaning the housing
Clean the housing with a soft, damp and lint-free cloth. Ensure
that no moisture enters the housing. Protect electrical
components from moisture. Do not use any aggressive cleaning
agents such as cleaning sprays, solvents, alcohol-based or
abrasive cleaners to dampen the cloth.
Cleaning the inside of the device
The air sucked in by the dehumidifier may contain dust and
other contaminants. This dust and dirt may collect at the water
outlet of the condensate collection tray or in the container of the
pump and clog it. To guarantee failure-free operation, the pump
and the dehumidifier should be cleaned at regular intervals to
remove any deposits.
Thorough cleaning
Perform this activity at least once a year.
1. Remove the hose lines at the discharge hose(8) and feed
hose(10) connections.
2. Clean the hose lines and connections at the pump and
remove any dirt.
3. Remove the housing cover(1), see chapter Assembly and
installation.
4. Remove the white and black connection plug.
Normal cleaning
Perform this activity at least every three months.
For normal cleaning it is sufficient to rinse the pump with clean
water, e.g. after dehumidification in a clean room, or by having
the pump(12) pump clean water as follows:
ü The connected dehumidifier is switched off.
1. Provide a container with clean water.
2. Remove the condensation drain hose from the dehumidifier
and pour clean water into the hose end.
3. Switch on the condensate pump and operate it until only
clean water is pumped by the pump(12).
Note
Clean the pump thoroughly while it is not pumping any
water.
5. Loosen the two nuts holding the pump on the housing wall.
If applicable, pull the hose out of the pump's container.
EN 9
DS/DH series
6. Open the hooks on the right- and left-hand side that
connect the lower container and the upper part of the
pump.
7. Clean the container with a cloth.
8. Close the container and check all hose connections.
9. Finally check the pump: Connect the device to the mains.
Let some fresh water flow into the container. The pump
should now pump off the water. Make sure that there is no
leak in the hose connections.
10. Attach the housing cover(1), see chapter Assembly and
installation.
