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.

In case of the device TTK 165 ECO defrosting takes place
electronically in air circulation mode.

The devices TTK170ECO and TTK380ECO come with a hot
gas automatic defrost system. Here, the hot gas of the
refrigerant circuit is used actively for fast and effective
defrosting. This makes the devices TTK170ECO and
TTK380ECO considerably more effective at temperatures
below 15°C.

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
Device depiction) is illuminated. The compressor and fan will
switch off. The condensation tank indicator light only goes out
again once the emptied condensation tank is reinserted.

If required, an external hygrostat can be connected to the
devices TTK170ECO and TTK380ECO for controlling the
humidity level. Moreover, an operating hours counter helps you
to meet the maintenance deadlines.

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%.

Because of the heat radiation generated during operation, the
room temperature may rise slightly.

Info

The illustrations in this operating manual feature the
device TTK 170 ECO by way of example. However, the
depicted operating steps and explanations also apply to
the devices TTK165ECO and TTK380ECO unless
otherwise mentioned.

dehumidifier TTK 165 ECO / TTK 170 ECO / TTK 380 ECO

Automatic defrost

At low ambient temperatures, ice may form at the evaporator
during dehumidification. The device will then carry out an
automatic defrost. Dehumidification is briefly interrupted during
defrosting. The fan keeps running.

In case of the device TTK 165 ECO defrosting takes place
electronically in air circulation mode. In defrost mode, the
compressor switches off while the fan keeps running and
circulates the compressor's waste heat around the evaporator
for defrosting.

The devices TTK170ECO and TTK380ECO come with a hot
gas automatic defrost system based on the bypass procedure.
Here, the hot gas of the refrigerant circuit is used actively for
fast and effective defrosting. As soon as ice starts to form, a
special valves opens automatically, redirects the hot gas to the
evaporator, and closes again after defrosting is completed so
that drying operation can be continued via the regular
refrigerant circuit. Unlike air circulation defrosting, hot gas
automatic defrosting allows for considerably shorter defrost
phases, which is an essential requirement for effective
dehumidification in low-temperature surroundings (below 15°C)
such as unheated rooms. After all, the actual dehumidification
process only takes place when defrosting is not in progress.

The duration of the defrost process can vary. Do not switch off
the device during automatic defrost. Do not remove the mains
plug from the mains socket.

Activities required before starting maintenance

Cleaning the air filter

Warning of electrical voltage

Do not touch the mains plug with wet or damp hands.

• Switch the device off.

• Hold onto the mains plug while pulling the power cable out
of the mains socket.

Warning of electrical voltage

Tasks which require the housing to be opened
must only be carried out by authorised specialist
companies or by Trotec.

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 air­conditioning or by Trotec.

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.

Note

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!

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).

1. Remove the air filter from the device.

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 air­conditioning or by Trotec.

5. Put the air filter back in.

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!

Make sure not to damage the float when inserting or
removing the condensation tank.
In doing so, make sure that the float is positioned
correctly.
Also make sure that the condensation tank is inserted
correctly, otherwise the device cannot be switched back
on.

2. Empty the condensation tank over a drain or sink.

Activities required after maintenance

If you want to continue using the device:

• 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. Rinse the tank with clear water. Clean the tank regularly
using a mild cleaning agent (no detergent!).
