Safety Notes:
•The Superdryer Series Dehumidifier must always be connected using the grounded
electrical connection as required from all electrical appliances. The warranty is voided
and all responsibility for the operation is born by the owner if non-grounded wiring is
utilized.
•The Superdryer Dehumidifiers must only be maintained and serviced by a qualified
technician.
•The Superdryer Dehumidifiers are designed to be transported and operated in the
vertical position. Any other orientation could cause water to come in contact with the
electrical components. Remove plug before moving dehumidifier. If any water may
have spread throughout unit, the unit should be opened and allowed to dry thoroughly
before reconnected to electric and restarting.
•For proper operation, neither the inlet nor discharge should be positioned against a
wall. The inlet requires a minimum of 12” clearance and the discharge needs a
minimum of 48” clearance.
•If the unit is utilized in a narrow room, the unit should be positioned so that the inlet
and discharge are facing the longest straight runs.
•Do not insert any objects into the inlet or discharge. If service is required, call a
qualified technician. All work on unit should be done with the unit “off” and
unplugged.
•Do not use water to clean unit exterior. Only use a damp cloth with unit unplugged.
•Do not use unit as shelf or device to hang clothes. This could cause damage to unit.
•The inlet filter generally needs cleaned once per month. Check unit on a weekly basis
to insure that more frequent cleaning is not required.
Pertinent Technical Standards and Regulations:
The Superdryer dehumidifier has been designed and manufactured to all the following
European Standards (Norms) and Regulations:
•MACHINES NORMS (D.P.R., NR. 459 - 24th July 1996) ;
•SECURITY REGULATIONS FOR LOW TENSION APPLIANCES 2006/95/CE);
•ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC) – 2004/108/CE.
•It is hereby certified that this Dehumidifier conform to the:
•IEC Regulations CEI-EN 60335-2-40, CEI-EN 55014-1, 55014-2.
•The machine is built according to RoHS European Norms

Warning
120 Volts AC may cause serious injury from electric shock.
1. Disconnect electrical power before servicing or moving
2. Plug unit only into grounded electrical outlet
3. Do not use extension cord
4. Do not use plug adapter
Power Supply: 115V, 60 Hz, Single Phase
Outlet Requirement: 3-Prong
Circuit Protector: 15 Amp Time Delay Fuse or Circuit Breaker
Principle of Operation
The Superdryer Series Dehumidifier utilizes its integral humidistat to monitor the conditioned
space. When the relative humidity goes above the selected set point, the dehumidifier will
energize. Air is drawn across an evaporator coil. The evaporator coil is cooler than the dew
point of the air so moisture will condense out of the air (below 70°F you will actually see ice
forming on the evaporator coil). Air is then reheated through the condenser coil and
distributed back into the room.

Superdryer 62 Owner’s Manual 4
Unit Set-Up
The unit will only function properly in a closed area. All windows and doors must be closed
to allow “drying” to occur.
WARNING: It is recommended to remove dehumidifier from area if applying a liquid
vapor barrier. Some coatings dry via “solvent evaporation,” which can be harmful to certain
components in your dehumidifier. Allow coating to completely dry and exhaust vapors prior
to positioning dehumidifier. Read and follow coating manufacturer’s instructions completely.
Place dehumidifier on level surface
WARNING – If during handling, the dehumidifier is moved in such a manner that the
compressor didn’t remain in a vertical orientation, wait a minimum of 2 hours before turning
the unit “on.”
Route drain line (3/4” ID tubing on gravity drain, 3/8” ID tubing on units with
condensate pump) to drain or outside of the area. Note: On units with gravity drain,
Drain line must have a downward slope to drain. (Not applicable to units with
reservoirs)
Reference: (Fig. 1/2), De-
humidistat (7) starts the functioning
of the dehumidifier when the humidity
is higher than the preset level. Air is
drawn in through the filter (1) flows
through the aluminium refrigerated
coil/ evaporator (2), through the
heat exchanger/ condenser (3).
Finally, the motor fan (4) expels the
air back into the room through the
front grilled panel. The condensed
water is collected in the tank (5). A
micro-switch (6) stops the machine
when the water in the tank reaches
the correct level activating the full
circuit. An electronic circuit (8)
controls the defrosting and prevents
the compressor (9) from short
cycling.

Plug unit into 15 amp grounded outlet.
To operate unit, turn humidistat knob clockwise until unit energizes.
oUnit will run fan only for approximately 2 minutes and than compressor will
energize.
oConfirm compressor is running and allow to run for minimum of 15 minutes
If under 70°F, a layer of ice will form on evaporator coil
If over 70°F, a layer of frost or water droplets will form on coil
After you’ve confirmed satisfactory operation of unit, humidistat should be set at
desired position for automatic operation.

•In “OFF” the machine will never start
•In “CONT” the machine will never stop
NOTE: Humidistat settings are approximate only. For critical applications, you may
want to confirm actual settings with a psychrometer and adjust according.
Display Panel Indications:
•“Power” Indication: Red light illuminates when unit is plugged into outlet
•“Full” Indication: Green light illuminates when either water tank is “full” or
condensate pump is not working properly. When light is “on”, unit will be in “off”
condition.
•“Defrost” Indication: Red light illuminates during initial “soft-start” or any normal
defrost cycle.
•“Working” Indication: Red light illuminates (together with “Power” light) when
machine is operating in normal dehumidification mode.

Operation
During normal operation, the dehumidifier will automatically cycle “on” and “off” to maintain
your desired set point. If it should need to run for extended periods of time, the
dehumidifier features an automatic defrost cycle to melt any ice that accumulates on
evaporator coil. Approximately every 35 minutes of continuous operation, the unit will test
for the need for a defrost cycle. If required, it will defrost for approximately 3 minutes.
Warning: Never apply an external source of heat to melt ice off coil.
Maintenance – Annual Inspection of Coils and drain line is required.
1. Unplug Unit
2. Filter may be cleaned by
a. Vacuuming
b. Washing with warm, soapy water. Rinse and shake dry.
3. Coils may be cleaned by
a. Vacuuming the external surfaces of coil
b. Blowing compressed air from behind coils. Hold air nozzle 6” away from coil to
avoid damage.
Warning: Do not steam clean refrigerant coils.
4. Plug in Unit
5. Test Refrigerant Charge
a. Confirm compressor is running and allow to run for minimum of 15 minutes
i. If under 70°F, a layer of ice will form on evaporator coils
ii. If over 70°F, a layer of frost or water droplets will form on coil
6. Test Defrost System
a. Leave unit running for approximately 35 minutes (45-55 minutes). The unit
should enter a defrost mode for approximately 3 minutes. The unit will run fan
only for a period of time and then check the temperature of the coil. If
necessary, the unit will enter a defrost mode with the compressor operating
and fan off to defrost the coil If the unit will not defrost, either
i. Control board may be defective
ii. Bypass valve may be defective
7. After routine maintenance has been completed, return humidistat to desired setting.
8. When you are ready to move unit, depress button on condensate pump (while unit is
“on”) to drain condensate or empty water tank prior to moving. This will prevent
water from splashing on inside of unit.
If any problems occur during routine maintenance, contact your contractor or the factory.
