Discharge the collected condensate before transport and storage. Do not drink it. Health hazard!
Only install, operate and store the device TTK 100 E in a room measuring more than 4m2.
Store the device in a way that no mechanical damage can occur.
Please note that the connected pipelines must not contain any sources of ignition.
R290 is a refrigerant that complies with European environmental regulations. No part of the cooling circuit may be perforated.
Observe the maximum refrigerant capacity in the technical data.
Do not drill through or burn.
Do not use any means other than those recommended by the manufacturer for accelerating the defrosting process.
Every person working with or at the refrigerant circuit must be able to provide a certificate of qualification issued by a body accredited by the industry, demonstrating their competence in the safe use of refrigerants based on a procedure well-known in the industry.
Service work may only be carried out in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications. If maintenance and repair work require the support of additional persons, the person trained in handling flammable refrigerants shall continuously supervise the work carried out.
Unventilated rooms, in which the device is installed, operated or stored, must be built in a way to ensure that potentially leaking refrigerant cannot accumulate. This serves to avoid fire or explosion hazards resulting from an ignition of the refrigerant by an electric furnace, cooking stove or another ignition source.
The entire refrigerant circuit is a maintenance-free, hermetically sealed system and may only be maintained or repaired by specialist companies for cooling and air­conditioning or by Trotec.
Safety warnings for devices containing flammable refrigerants
Only position the device in rooms where potentially leaking refrigerant cannot accumulate.
Only position the device in rooms where there is no source of ignition (e.g. open flames, an active gas appliance or an electric heater).
Please note that the refrigerant is odourless.
Only install the device in compliance with the national installation regulations.
Observe the national gas regulations.

Information about the device

Description of the device

The device uses the principle of condensation to automatically dehumidify rooms.
The fan sucks damp room air through the air inlet, the air filter, the evaporator and to the condenser located behind it. The air is cooled at the cold evaporator until it is below the dew point. Water vapour contained in the room air precipitates on the evaporator fins as condensation or rime. The dehumidified, cooled air is slightly warmed at the condenser and blown out again. The drier air thus conditioned mixes with the air in the room. The humidity in the room where the device is positioned is reduced as air constantly circulates through the device.
Depending on the air temperature and the relative humidity, the condensed water either drops continuously or only during the defrost phase through the integrated drain nozzle into the condensation tank below. It is fitted with a float to measure the filling level.
The device has a control panel for operating and controlling the functions.
Once the maximum filling level of the condensation tank is reached or in case the condensation tank is not installed correctly, the condensation tank indicator light (see chapter Operating elements) on the control panel is illuminated. The device switches off. The condensation tank indicator light only goes out again once the emptied condensation tank is reinserted.
Optionally, the condensed water can be drained by attaching a hose at the condensation connection.
The device can reduce the relative humidity of a room to approx. 30%.
In addition, the device may also be used as a kind of clothes dryer to dry wet laundry in living or working spaces.
Because of the heat radiation generated during operation, the room temperature may rise slightly.
