2. SAFETY MEASURES
The device is primarily designed for use in indoor swimming pools, smaller pools, spas or saunas.
Alternative use is in laundries, drying rooms or other humid areas requiring dehumidification. See the
technical data table to check model suitability for a pool room and pool area.
It is necessary to follow the instructions in this Installation and user manual and local regulations
in your country that regulate the installation and usage of this device. Incorrect, improper or
operations contradictory to this User´s manual may lead to injury or property damage and will
lead to loss of warranty. To prevent injury or property damage the following instructions must be
followed:
2.1 Electrical safety
•The device operates at dangerous electrical current.
•Only authorized persons with particular electro-technical qualification can manipulate with unit.
•Danger of electrical shock.
•Do not exceed the required power supply.
•Do not turn a device that shows signs of possible damage such as broken packaging, broken or
otherwise damaged unit’s chassis or cover, smoke, smell, damaged power cord etc. on.
•It is necessary to use appropriate Residual current circuit breaker (RCD) for connection of the
dehumidifier to main power supply.
•Do not manipulate device with wet hands.
For proper and optimal operation of this device, it is necessary to keep the air temperature in
the pool hall 2 - 3 ° C higher than the actual water temperature in the pool. It is also necessary
to maintain the air temperature in the pool hall within the operating temperature range of the
dehumidifier (specified in the Technical Data section), based on the specific selection of the
operating temperature of the accessories selected for the specific equipment. Lower air
temperatures outside the operating temperature range can damage the device due to freezing.
Higher temperatures outside the operating temperature range may damage the unit due to
overheating of the unit.

3.2 Fresh air supply (on demand as accessory)
Each MICROWELL DRY dehumidifier has the option of fresh air supply. The air supply is located below
the condenser, which effectively heats the incoming fresh air due to heat recovery.
The metal fresh air connection is supplied already mounted on the dehumidifier, but towards the
inside. When installing the dehumidifier, it is necessary to remove the flange to wind it correctly
(opposite to the one supplied). For example, a plastic pipe is then mounted on the flange, which
conducts the air through the wall.

4. HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS
4.1 Main humidistat
The dehumidifier is switched on and off using a digital humidistat with a display. The built-in
humidistat is located in the housing of the device. The humidistat checks the humidity level of the
intake air and, depending on the set value, starts dehumidification if necessary. In rooms with an
indoor pool, the optimum humidity should be between 55% and 65%. Reducing the humidity level
below said interface is not desirable, taking into account the physiological aspects as well as the
protection of the building. In addition, electricity consumption increases. The humidistat can be fully
controlled by the user.
ERROR REPORTS:
Er1 Memory impairment. Switch the electrical connection off and then on again. If the fault
message persists, please contact us to replace the part.
0-E Sensor failure. The electrical connection of the sensor is interrupted. Please check the cable.
S-E Sensor failure. The sensor is shorted. Please check the cable.
The illuminated dot indicates
that the display shows the air
temperature.
The illuminated dot indicates
that the humidity level is shown
on the display.
The lit square indicates that the controller
is giving a signal to heat the air (if a hot
water insert and solenoid valve are
installed.) An unlit symbol indicates that
the desired air temperature is lower than
the actual one.
An illuminated square indicates that the
controller is giving signal to
dehumidify, ie. the required humidity is
lower than the actual one.
The manufacturer recommends setting the required humidity value in the range of 55 to 65% RH.
Reducing humidity below this range is not desirable either from a physiological point of view or
from a building protection point of view. In addition, it increases electricity consumption. Setting
above 65% RH can create an environment where the humidity reaches a critical level of 70%,
which could lead to an overgrowth of unwanted bacteria and the formation of mold, or damage
