TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
SDH-SEH dehumidifiers series are highly performances units designed for swimming pool applications where it is necessary to
control humidity and to prevent condensation to guarantee optimal comfort.
Frame
All SDH-SEH units are made from hot-galvanised thick sheet metal, painted with polyurethane powder enamel at 180C to ensure
the best resistance against the atmospheric agents. The frame is self-supporting with removable panels. All screws and rivets are in
stainless steel. The colour of the units is RAL 7035.
Refrigerant circuit
The refrigerant gas used in these units is R407C. The refrigerant circuit is made by using international primary brands components
and according to ISO 97/23 concerning welding procedures. The refrigerant circuit includes:
sight glass,
filter drier,
thermal expansion valve with external equalizer,
Schrader valves form maintenance and control,
pressure safety device (according to PED regulation).
Compressors
The compressors are rotary (mod.100,120) or scroll type (mod.160, 200)with crankcase heater and thermal overload protection by a
klixon embedded in the motor winding. The compressors are mounted on rubber vibration dampers and they can be supplied with
sound attenuation jacket to reduce the noise emission (option). The inspection on the compressors is possible only through the unit
front panel.
Condensers and evaporators
Condensers and evaporators are made of copper pipes and aluminium fins. All evaporators are painted with epoxy powders to
prevent corrosion problem due to their use in aggressive environments. The diameter of the copper pipes is 3/8 and the thickness of
the aluminium fins is 0,1 mm. The tubes are mechanically expanded into the aluminium fins to improve the heat exchange factor.
The geometry of these heat exchangers guarantees a low air side pressure drop and then the use of low rotation (and low noise
emission) fans. All units are supplied, standard, with a Stainless steel drip tray and all evaporators are supplied with a temperature
sensor used as automatic defrost probe.
Fans
The fans are made of galvanized steel, centrifugal type, double inlet with forward curved blades. They are statically and dynamically
balanced and supplied complete of the safety fan guard according to EN 294. They are mounted on the unit frame by interposition of
rubber vibration dampers. The electric motors are 4 poles (about 1500 rpm), three-phase power supply. The motors are connected to
the fans by pulleys and belts. The protection class of the motors is IP 54.
Air filter
It is made of synthetic filtering media, undulated type, without electro-static charge; they are all removable for differential disposal.
Efficiency class G1, according to EN 779:2002.
Electric enclosure
The electric switch board is made according to electromagnetic compatibility norms CEE 73/23 and 89/336. The accessibility to the
board is possible after removing the front panel of the unit and the OFF positioning of the main switch. The moisture protection
degree is IP55. In all SEH (not on SDH) units are installed, standard, the compressors sequence relay who disables the operation of
the compressor in case the power supply phase sequence is not the correct one (scroll compressors in fact, can be damaged if they
rotate reverse wise). The following components are also standard installed: main switch, magnetic-thermal switches (as a protection
fans and compressors), control circuit automatic breakers, compressor contactors, fan contactors. The terminal board is supplied
with voltage free contacts for remote ON-OFF and general alarm.
Microprocessors
All SDH-SEH units are supplied standard with microprocessor controls. The microprocessor controls the following functions:
regulation of the water temperature, antifreeze protection, compressor timing, compressor automatic starting sequence, alarm reset,
potential free contact for remote general alarm, alarms and operation led.
MTSDH_SEHGB
REV.072008

Control and protection devices

SAFETY DEVICES
DEFROSTING
The frost on the coil, obstructs the air flow, reduces the available exchange area and consequently the unit performances and can
seriously damage the system. All the units are supplied, standard, with a control which defrost automatically the heat exchanger if
necessary. This control provides a temperature probe (defrost thermostat) on the unit evaporator. When the defrost cycle is required,
the microprocessor control (according to set parameters), switches the compressor off, while the fan remains in operation. At the end
of the defrost cycle, it is waited for the dripping time to allow the complete cleaning of the coil.
HIGH PRESSURE SWITCH
The high pressure switch stops the unit when the condensing pressure is higher than the set value. The restart is manual (you need
to press the button on the pressure switch) and it can be carried out only when the pressure is under the value indicated by the
differential set (see table below).
LOW PRESSURE SWITCH (SEH ONLY)
The low pressure switch stops the unit when the evaporation pressure is lower than the set value. The restart is automatic and it can
be carried out only when the pressure is higher than the value indicated by the differential set (see table below).
DEFROST THERMOSTAT
Its a device which signals to the electronic control, the necessity to make the defrost cycle. Once the defrost cycle is activated, the
defrost thermostat determines also its conclusion.

MAINTENANCE AND PERIODIC CHECKS
Any routine or not-routine maintenance operation shall be carried out when the equipment has been shut
down, disconnected from electric and pneumatic power source and after its pneumatic system has been
discharged.
It is a good rule to carry on periodic checks in order to verify the correct operation of the unit.
Check that safety and control devices work correctly as previously described (monthly).
Check all the terminals on the electric board and on the compressor are properly fixed. Periodic cleaning of the sliding terminals
of the contactors should be done.
Check there is no oil leakage from compressor (monthly).
Check there is no water leakage in the hydraulic system (monthly).
Clean filters with compressed air in the opposite direction of the air flow. If filters should be fully clogged, clean them with a water
jet (monthly).
-Check mounting of fan blades and their balancing (every 4 months).
REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT REPAIR

In the case that refrigerant circuit should be dicharged, all the refrigerant must be recovered with proper machines. The
system must be charged with nitrogen, using a gas bottle with a pressure reducing valve, until 15 bar pressure is reached. Any
eventual leakage must be searched with a bubble leak finder. In case bubbles appear discharge the circuit before welding with
proper alloys.
WARNING: Never use oxygen instead of nitrogen: explosions may occur.
ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION
According to European norms dealing with the use of depleting stratospheric ozone substances, it is forbidden to release
refrigerants fluids in the atmosphere. They must be redelivered to the seller or to proper gathering points at the end of their
operating life. Refrigerant R407C is mentioned among controlled substances and for this reason it must be subjected to said norms.
A particular care is recommended during service operations in order to reduce as much as possible any refrigerant loss.
UNIT OUT OF SERVICE

Once the unit is arrived at the end of its life and needs to be removed or replaced, the following operations are recommended:
the unit refrigerant has to be recovered by trained people and sent to proper collecting centre;
compressor lubricating oil has to be recovered and sent to proper collecting centre;
the frame and various components, if not usable any longer, have to be dismantled and divided according to their nature;
particularly copper and aluminium, which are present in conspicuous quantity in the unit. These operations allow easy material
recover and recycling process, reducing environmental impact.
