Information about the device
Device description
The device serves the purpose of cooling the room air. It further
filters and dehumidifies the air thus creating an agreeable room
climate.
The device uses two separate air hoses for cooling. The supply
air is fed from outside, not from the room. No negative pressure
is built up in the room and no warm air from outside penetrates
into the room. Yet, fresh air is constantly fed to the air
conditioner and distributed over the room by the fan.
Air conditioners with two-hose technology are up to 25% more
efficient.
If required, the device can also be operated with an exhaust air
hose only. In this case, the supply air is fed from the room.
When operated with an exhaust air hose, the device cools the
room air by extracting heat from it. The absorbed warmth is
emitted to the outside via the exhaust air hose, cooled air is fed
to the installation site by means of a fan.
In ventilation mode the device also provides the opportunity of
air circulation without cooling effect.
In dehumidification mode moisture is withdrawn from the air.
The device operates fully automatically and features a variety of
further options. The device can, for instance, be switched on or
off automatically with time delay via the timer function.
Operation of the device is possible either via the control panel at
the device or via the supplied infrared remote control.
The device was designed for universal and flexible application.
Due to its compact dimensions it can be easily transported and
used in all interior spaces.
Accumulating condensate drips from the evaporator onto the hot
condenser, there it evaporates and then is transported to the
outside via the exhaust air hose.
Warning!
Do not leave the packaging lying around. Children may
use it as a dangerous toy.
Note
Do not operate the device without an inserted air filter!
Without an air filter the inside of the device will be
heavily contaminated, which could reduce the
dehumidification performance and result in damage to
the device.

Activities required before starting maintenance
Warning of electrical voltage
Do not touch the mains plug with wet or damp hands.
• Switch off the device.
• Hold onto the mains plug while pulling the power cable out
of the mains socket.
Warning of electrical voltage
Maintenance tasks which require the housing to be
opened must only be carried out by authorised
specialist companies or by Trotec.
Cleaning the housing
Clean the device 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.
Visual inspection of the inside of the device for dirt
1. Remove the air filter.
2. Use a torch to illuminate the openings of the device.
3. Check the inside of the device for dirt.
4. If you see a thick layer of dust, have the inside of the device
cleaned by a specialist company for cooling and
air-conditioning or by Trotec.
5. Put the air filter back in.
Cleaning the air filter
The air filter has to be cleaned as soon as it is dirty. This is
brought to light e.g. by a reduced capacity (see chapter Errors
and faults).
Warning!
Ensure that the air filter is not worn or damaged. The
corners and edges of the air filter must not be
deformed or rounded. Before reinserting the air filter,
make sure that it is undamaged and dry!
1. Remove the air filter from the device.
2. Clean the filter using a slightly damp, soft, lint-free cloth. If
the filter is heavily contaminated, clean it with warm water
mixed with a neutral cleaning agent.
3. Allow the filter to dry completely. Do not insert a wet filter
into the device!
EN 16
Operating manual – local air conditioner PAC 3550 PRO

4. Reinsert the air filter into the device.
Condensate discharge (manual draining)
In cooling and dehumidification mode condensate is formed,
which is mostly discharged via the exhaust air.
The remaining condensate is collected in a container within the
housing. The condensate ought to be drained regularly.
If too much condensate accumulates, the device switches off
and indicates this via the FL indication on the segment
display(21).
1. Carefully transport or wheel the device to a suitable location
for discharging the condensate (e.g. a drain) or position a
suitable collection container under the condensate
outlet(10).
2. Unscrew the sealing cap from the condensate outlet(10).
Refrigerant circuit
• The entire refrigerant circuit is a maintenance-free,
hermetically sealed system and may only be maintained or
repaired by specialist companies for cooling and
air-conditioning or by Trotec.
Activities required after maintenance
If you want to continue using the device:
• Leave the device to rest for 12-24hours, so the
refrigerant can accumulate within the compressor. Wait
12-24hours before switching the device back on! Acting
contrary might lead to compressor damage and a
malfunctioning device. If so, any warranty claims will be
voided.
• Reconnect the device to the mains.
If you do not intend to use the device for a considerable time:
• Store the device according to the Storage chapter.
3. Remove the rubber stopper from the condensate outlet(10).
4. Let the condensate run off completely.
5. Reattach the rubber stopper to the condensate outlet(10).
Check the rubber stopper for tight fit.
6. Screw the sealing cap onto the condensate outlet(10).
ð The FL indication on the segment display(21) will go out as
soon as the condensate has been drained.
