INTRODUCTION
Designed for a wide range of applications, the Triton dehumidifier is a super
high capacity industrial unit which provides fast and efficient drying.
The Triton has a number of special features:
• Super high efficiency rotary compressor
• Temperature-sensitive microprocessor controlled defrost system
• Exterior epoxy powder-coated finish
• Inlet air filter
• Internal condensate pump
• Pump purge system
• Rugged trolley for portability
• Retractable handle mechanism
• Extra long power cord
The fan draws the moist air through the inlet grille on the back of the unit, and
then through the cold evaporator coil, which cools the air below its dew point.
Moisture forms on the evaporator coil and is collected in the condensate tray,
which is equipped with a permanent drain. The cooled air then passes
through the hot condenser coil where it is reheated using the same energy
removed during the cooling phase, plus the additional heat generated by the
compressor. The air is, therefore, discharged from the dehumidifier at a
slightly higher temperature with a lower absolute humidity than that which
entered. Continuous circulation of air through the dehumidifier gradually
reduces the relative humidity within the area.
The Triton dehumidifier is a rugged, reliable drying unit designed to operate
effectively over a broad range of temperature and humidity conditions.
The unit incorporates a welded and galvanized steel chassis and is finished in
an epoxy coating for resilience to damage caused by rough handling.

OPERATION
The following procedures should be followed to test the Triton for correct
operation:
1. After unpacking, examine all external features to confirm damage-
free shipment. Report all defects and damage at once. Connect the
power cable to a grounded 15 Amp electrical outlet.
2. Check dehumidification process as follows:
A. Place unit on a level surface.
B. Start up unit by switching to “ON”.
C. Check that air is being delivered through the front outlet grille
and the compressor is running.
D. Leave the machine running for 60 minutes.
E. Check to ensure there is sign of water extraction through the
condensate drain.
F. Test the pump surge system operation by holding the
momentary pump switch for 5 to 10 seconds. This switch allows
you to drain the pump reservoir at the end of a drying job
If, after carrying out the above procedures, the unit does not appear to
function properly, refer to the Troubleshooting section, which follows,
or contact the Factory Service Center.
CAUTION:
DO NOT REMOVE COVERS WHEN UNIT IS IN OPERATION
CAUTION:
ONCE THE UNIT HAS BEEN SWITCHED OFF, WAIT AT
LEAST FIVE MINUTES BEFORE RESTARTING.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
To ensure continued full efficiency of the dehumidifier, maintenance
procedures should be performed as follows:
1. Replace or clean the inlet air grille as required. Clean the surface
of the evaporator and condenser coils by blowing the dirt out from
behind the fins with compressed air. Hold the nozzle of the air hose
away from the coil to avoid damaging the fins. Alternatively,
vacuum clean the coils.
2. Check that the fan is firmly secured to the motor shaft and that the
fan rotates freely. The fan motor is sealed for life and therefore
does not need oiling.
3. To check the refrigerant charge, run the unit for 15 minutes and
briefly remove the top cover. The evaporator coil should be evenly
frost coated across its surface. At temperatures above 70°F, the
coil may be covered with droplets of water rather than frost. Partial
frosting accompanied by frosting of the thin capillary tubes,
indicates loss of refrigerant gas or low charge.
4. Check all wiring connections.
I F ANY OF THE PRECEDING PROBLEMS OCCUR , CONTACT THE E BAC
S ERVICE C ENTER PRIOR TO CONTINUED OPERATION OF THE UNIT TO
PREVENT PERMANENT DAMAGE .
WARNING:
ENSURE THAT THE POWER CORD TO THE MACHINE HAS BEEN
DISCONNECTED BEFORE CARRYING OUT ROUTINE MAINTNENANCE
WARNING:
DO NOT STEAM CLEAN REFRIGERATION COILS

REPAIRS
1. Should an electrical component fail, consult the Factory Service
Center to obtain the proper replacement part.
2. If refrigerant gas is lost from the machine, it will be necessary to use
a refrigeration technician to correct the fault. Contact the Factory
Service Center prior to initiating this action.
Any competent refrigeration technician will be able to service the
equipment. The following procedure must be used:
a. The source of the leak must be determined and corrected.
b. The machine should be thoroughly evacuated before
recharging.
c. The unit must be recharged with refrigerant measured
accurately by weight.
d. For evacuation and recharging of the machine, use the crimped
and brazed charging stub attached to the side of the refrigerant
compressor.
The charging stub should be crimped and rebrazed after
servicing. N EVER allow permanent service valves to be fitted to
any part of the circuit. Service valves may leak causing further
loss of refrigerant gas.
3. The refrigerant compressor fitted to the dehumidifier is a durable
unit that should give many years of service. Compressor failure can
result from the machine losing its refrigerant gas. The compressor
can be replaced by a competent refrigeration technician.
Failure of the compressor can be confirmed by the following
procedure:
a. Establish that power is present at the compressor terminals
using a voltmeter.
b. With the power disconnected, check the continuity of the internal
winding by using meter across the compressor terminals. An
open circuit indicates that the compressor should be replaced.
c. Check that the compressor is not grounded by establishing that
a circuit does not exist between the compressor terminals and
the shell of the compressor.
