The mixture of gas and liquid refrigerant enter the

accumulator after leaving the evaporator coil. The

accumulator prevents any liquid refrigerant from reaching

the compressor. The compressor evacuates the cool

refrigerant gas from the accumulator and compresses it to

a high pressure and temperature to repeat the process.

4.3 Troubleshooting

No dehumidiﬁcation, neither blower nor compressor run

and power switch does not light when ON.

1. Unit unplugged or no power to outlet.

2. Power switch defective (Sec. 2.6).

3. Loose connection in internal wiring (Fig. 3).

No dehumidiﬁcation, neither blower nor compressor run

with power switch ON & lit.

1. Low pressure control open (Sec. 2.10).

2. Power switch defective (Sec. 2.6).

3. Loose connection in internal wiring (Fig. 3).

Some dehumidiﬁcation, blower runs continuously but

compressor only runs sporadically.

1. Unit is in defrost cycle (Sec. 2.9 & 4.7).

2. Defrost thermostat defective or loose (Sec. 2.9 & 4.7).

3. Loose connection in compressor circuit (see Fig. 3).

4. Defective compressor overload (Sec. 4.6A).

5. Defective compressor (Sec. 4.6).

6. Defective relay (Sec. 4.10).

No dehumidiﬁcation, blower runs but compressor does not.

1. Bad connection in compressor circuit (Fig. 3).

2. Pump safety switch closed

2. Defective compressor capacitor (Sec. 4.6A).

3. Defective compressor overload (Sec. 4.6A).

4. Defective compressor (Sec. 4.6).

5. Defective relay (Sec. 4.10).

Blower does not run. Compressor runs brieﬂy but cycles on

& off.

1. Loose connection in blower circuit (see Fig. 3).

2. Obstruction prevents impeller rotation.

3. Defective blower (Sec. 4.5).

Unit removes some water but not as much as expected.

1. Air temperature and/or humidity have dropped.

2. Humidity meter and/or thermometer used are out of

calibration.

3. Unit has entered defrost cycle (Sec. 2.9 & 4.7).

4. Air ﬁlter dirty (Sec. 3.1).

5. Defrost timer incorrectly set for conditions (Sec. 2.9 &

4.7).

6. Defective defrost thermostat (Sec. 4.7)

7. Low refrigerant charge (Sec. 4.4).

8. Air leak such as loose front cover.

9. Defective compressor (Sec. 4.6).

10. Restrictive exhaust ducting (Sec. 2.5)

Unit runs but does not pump water.

1. Hose kinked or plugged.

2. Pump motor or ﬂoat switch defective (Sec. 4.8).

3. Pump check valve plugged (Sec. 4.8).

4. Bad connection in pump circuit (Fig. 3).

5. Hose disconnected internally.

Unit pumps water automatically but not when purge switch

is pushed.

1. Bad connection in purge switch circuit (Fig. 3).

2. Defective purge switch (Sec. 2.7).

Evaporator coil frosted continuously, low dehumidifying

capacity.

1. Defrost thermostat loose or defective (Sec. 2.9 & 4.7).

2. Defrost timer incorrectly set or defective (Sec. 2.9 &

4.7).

2. Low refrigerant charge (Sec. 4.4).

3. Dirty air ﬁlter or air ﬂow restricted. (Sec. 3.1).

Compressor runs with power switch OFF.

1. Defective relay (Sec. 4.10).

2. Defective power switch (Sec. 2.6)

4.4 Refrigerant Charging

If the refrigerant charge is lost due to service or a leak, a

new charge must be accurately weighed in. If any of the

old charge is left in the system, it must be removed before

weighing in the new charge. Refer to the unit nameplate for

the correct charge weight and refrigerant type.

4.5 Blower Replacement

The centrifugal blower has a PSC motor and internal

thermal overload protection. If defective, the complete

assembly must be replaced.

1. Unplug the power cord.

2. Remove the top panel and cabinet front (6 screws).

3. Disconnect the blower leads.

4. Remove the four screws holding the blower outlet

ﬂange to the cabinet end.
