Information about the device
Device description
This device TTK 128 E uses the principle of condensation to
automatically dehumidify rooms.
The fan sucks damp room air through the air inlet (5), 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 either condensation or frost. At the condenser the
dehumidified, cooled air is warmed by a few degrees and blown
out. 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 (7) below. It is fitted with a float to measure the
filling level.
The device has a control panel (1) for operating and controlling
the functions.
Once the maximum fill level of the condensation tank (7) is
reached, the condensation tank indicator light (see chapter
Operating elements) on the control panel (1) is illuminated. The
device switches off. The condensation tank indicator light only
goes out again once the emptied condensation tank (7) is
reinserted. The condensed water can be diverted by attaching a
hose at the condensation connection (6). The device can reduce
the relative humidity of a room by up to approx. 30 %. Because of
the heat radiation generated during operation, the room
temperature may rise slightly.

To make the device easier to transport, it is fitted with wheels and
carry handles.
Before transporting the device, observe the following:
1. Switch off the device at the mains switch (see chapter Operating elements).
2. Remove the mains plug from the mains socket. Do not use the power cable to drag the device!
3. Empty the condensation tank. Check for dripping condensation.
After transporting the device, proceed as follows:
1. Set the device in an upright position after transport.
2. Wait one hour before switching the device on!
Storage
When out of use, store the device as follows:
•dry,
• with a roof overhead,
• in an upright position where it is protected from dust and
direct sunlight,
• with a plastic cover to protect it from invasive dust, if
necessary.
• The storage temperature is the same as the range given for
the operating temperature in the chapter Technical Data.
• After being switched on, the device operates fully
automatically.
• Avoid open doors and windows.
Positioning
When positioning the device, observe the minimum distance from
walls or other objects as described in chapter Technical Data.
• Set the device up in a level and stable position.
• If possible, set the device in the middle of a room and keep it
away from sources of heat.
• When positioning the device in wet areas such as laundries,
bath rooms or the like, secure the device locally with an RCD
(Residual Current protective Device) which complies with the
appropriate regulations.
• Ensure that extension cords are completely unrolled.
Notes regarding the dehumidification performance
The dehumidification performance depends on:
• the layout of the room
• the room temperature
• the relative humidity
The higher the room temperature and relative humidity, the
5 Operating Manual – Dehumidif ier TTK 128 E EN
greater the dehumidification performance.
For using in living rooms, a relative humidity of approx. 50-60 %
is sufficient. In store rooms and archives, the humidity should not
exceed approx. 50 %.

sufficiently dimensioned collection container or drain are
required.
Start the continuous operation mode as follows:
1. Switch off the device.
2. If you want to drain the condensate separately, remove the condensation tank (7) and carry out steps 3. and 4. If you want to collect the condensate in the condensation tank, proceed with step 5.
3. Connect a suitable hose (ø
½") to the hose connector (6) and
introduce it into an appropriate condensate collection
container.
– Make sure that the container is located at a lower level than
the hose connector.
– During operation, make sure that the condensate collection
container does not overflow to avoid water damage.
4. Put the condensation tank (7) back in. – In doing so, make sure not to crush the hose.
5. Press HUMIDITY SETTING (18) until "CO" is displayed. – The dehumidifier now works in continuous operation mode.

Errors and faults
The accurate functionality of the device was tested during
production a number of times. However, if functionality faults do
occur, then check the device according to the following list.
The device does not start:
• Check the power connection.
• Check the mains plug for damages.
• Wait for 10 minutes before restarting the device. If the device
is not starting, have the electrics checked by a specialist
company for cooling and air-conditioning or by Trotec.
The device is running, but forms no condensate:
• Check that the condensation tank is positioned correctly.
Check the filling level of the condensation tank and empty it,
if necessary. The condensation tank indicator light must not
light up.
• Check the float in the condensation tank for dirt. If necessary,
clean the float and condensation tank. The float must be able
to move freely.
• Check the room temperature. Observe the device's
permissible operating range according to the technical data.
• Check that the selected desired humidity level. The humidity
in the room must be above the selected range. Reduce the
preselected humidity by turning the rotary switch (11), if
necessary.
• Check the air filter for dirt. If necessary, clean or replace the
air filter.
• From the outside, check the condenser for dirt (see chapter
Maintenance). If your condenser is dirty, have it cleaned by a
specialist company for cooling and air-conditioning or by
Trotec.
The device is loud or vibrates; condensate is leaking:
• Check whether the device is standing upright and on an even
surface.
The device gets very warm, is loud or is losing performance:
• Check the air inlets and air filter are not dirty. Remove
external dirt.
• Check the inside of the device and especially the fan, the fan
housing, the evaporator and the condenser for external dirt
(see chapter Maintenance). If the inside of the device is dirty,
have it cleaned by a specialist company for cooling and
air-conditioning or by Trotec.
