HOW IT WORKS EPD150/EPD150-PRO|
Your EPD Desiccant dehumidier removes
moisture using a continuously rotating moisture
absorbing wheel —this ‘Desiccant Rotor’ is
literally a honeycomb of extremely hygroscopic
membranes.
A highly ecient yet low noise fan draws air
into the unit (Process Air) and forces it through
a portion of the absorbent rotor. As the air
passes through the rotor, the honeycomb of
hygroscopic membranes absorb almost all
of the moisture creating an extremely dry air
stream.
Most of this air stream is discharged directly
through the ‘Dry Air Outlet’ however, a portion
of this air (Regen Air) is separated and directed
through a heater bank (Regen Heater) where it’s
temperature is raised. This air is then channeled
back through a section of the rotor. As this
air passes back through the membranes, its
higher temperature drives-out the previously
absorbed moisture and discharges it as warm
wet air through the ‘Wet Air Out’ duct.
As the wheel rotates, this process of collecting
and discharging moisture is continuous.

PATENTED DESICCANT ROTOR
The Desiccant Rotor is the heart of the EPD dehumidier. It is an array of specially
absorbent membranes arranged as a series of corrugations (as shown in the
cut-away image) to give a vast surface area making it an extremely ecient. It is
encased in a galvanized steel ring and turns on high quality sealed ball bearing
units.
REGEN HEATER BANK
The EPD dehumidier uses a ceramic PTC type regen heater. PTC (Positive
Temperature Coecient) heaters are based on a semi-conductor that changes
resistance as it becomes hotter. The semi-conductor is designed so that it’s
resistance rises rapidly at a predesignated temperature, thus it maintains this
temperature across a wide range of operational conditions.
This characteristic means that the heating element can never over heat to
hazardous temperatures, even if the regen airow is completely blocked.
FAN SYSTEM
The EPD dehumidier uses a patented "RadiCal" backward curved fan unit, this is a
highly eective yet quiet system. It is designed to give a good balance of airows
for both ‘Process’ and ‘Regen’ airows.
HOW IT WORKS WORKS (2) |

US
The EPD dehumidier is designed only for indoor use however, it can be placed inside or outside the room to
be dried.
INTERNAL POSITIONING
When positioning the unit inside the room, place it centrally, ensuring inlet and outlet ducts are clear of
obstruction.
If required, ducts can be connected to the outlet and/or inlet to direct the drying to specic areas.
The Wet-Air-Out MUST be ducted outside the room
EXTERNAL POSITIONING
When positioning the unit outside the room, connect ducting to the outlet to direct the dry air stream into the
room to be dried.
Optionally, the inlet may also be ducted to the room to give a re-circulation eect. In this case however,
because the unit uses a portion for the inlet air for regeneration, provision must be made in the inlet duct to
also draw air form outside the room.
Note:
As the Wet-Air-Out discharge is warm and very humid ensure it is directed where it will have no adverse
eect on the immediate environment.
All ducting lengths should be kept to a minimum —longer lengths will reduce performance.
The Wet-Air-Out is warm and very humid, when a duct is attached, condensation may form on the inside of
the duct. This duct should slope downwards away may from the unit to prevent any condensation running
back into the unit.

STAND-ALONE OPERATION
Connect the unit to suitable mains supply.
Ensure Remote Humidistat switch is set in the ‘OFF’ (O) position.
Switch Power switch to the ‘ON’ (I) position.
The fan will start and the Ammeter reading will rise. The ammeter indicates the current taken by the PTC
heater bank. Its reading will depend on the ‘Process’ air temperature and the ‘Regen’ airow. Typically, it will
indicate between 2 and 3 amps (EPD150/EPD150-PRO) or between 4 and 6 amps (EPD200/EPD200-PRO), this
will reduce if the airow is low or the ‘Process’ air temperature is high.
REMOTE OPERATION
For remote operation it is necessary to connect a switch or humidistat via the ‘Remote Humidistat Connector’
which can be accessed by removing the dust cap. A connection plug is available on request.
ATTENTION: The remote connector is mains voltage!
The remote switch/humidistat should be connected between pins 1 and 3.
The earth pin is connected to ground and can be used if required (see wiring diagram).
The Remote Humidistat switch should be set to the ‘ON’ position.
The unit will now operate according to the state of the remote switch.
AIR FILTER
The unit has an inlet air lter, this should be checked periodically and if necessary cleaned. It can be cleaned
with a vacuum cleaner or washed in mild detergent.
ATTENTION:
Do not run the unit without a lter tted as dust will impair the performance of the Desiccant Rotor.

If the dehumidier does not operate:
• Make sure the unit is plugged in.
• Check the fuse
• Check the remote humidistat setting
• Ensure the humidistat (if tted) is turned on
Low Airow:
• Check inlet air lter
• Check inlet/outlets not obstructed
• Check ductwork (if tted) is not obstructed
• Check voltage level
• Check fan is working
If the unit is noisy:
• Check fan operation
• Check rotor drive
• Check for loose screws
Low Dehumidifying Eect:
• Check airows
• Check Amps reading
• Check rotor is turning
Low Amps Reading:
• Check Regen airow
• Check Over-Heat Protector
• Check Heater bank
Rotor Not Turning
• Check belt tension
• Check drive-motor operation
• Check rotor alignment

MAINTENANCE|
ATTENTION
• Maintenance should only be carried out by qualied personnel
• Unit should be disconnected from mains before removing covers
• If unit has just been running, heater bank may still be hot
DESICCANT ROTOR
The desiccant rotor is maintenance free, however, if it becomes blocked with dust (e.g. if it has been running
without inlet air lter) it can be cleaned by vacuum cleaner or low pressure compressed air.
HEATER BANK
The PTC heater bank is maintenance free however, if it becomes blocked with dust (e.g. if it has been running
without inlet air lter) it can be cleaned by vacuum cleaner or low pressure compressed air.
OVER-HEAT PROTECTOR
In the event of total airow loss, the over-heat protector will operate. If this happens
it will need to be manually re-set after the airow is restored.
To reset, push the red button (R) down.
DESICCANT ROTOR DRIVE
The desiccant rotor is driven by a geared motor via a toothed belt. The rotation
speed is approximately 20 RPH. It can be seen turning during operation through
the air outlet duct. If it appears to be slow or sticking, the belt can be re-tensioned
using the 4 mounting screws @ ‘‘A’’.
NOTE: Do NOT over-tension
the belt. After tensioning it
should have movement as
shown in the image.
