4.0 Intended use

The units are designed exclusively 
for drying and dehumidification 
purposes on the basis of their 
structural design and equipment.
The units must not be used for any 
other purpose. 

The units are only permitted to 
be operated by people with the 
relevant training and understanding 
of how to handle them.

Any different or additional 
use is a non-intended use. The 
manufacturer/supplier assumes no 
liability for damages arising from 
non-intended use. The user bears the 
sole risk in such cases.
Intended use also includes working 
in accordance with the operating 
and installation instructions and 
complying with the maintenance 
requirements.

It is evident that the corrosion rate 
below 50% relative humidity (RH) is 
low, and below 40% is negligible. 
 
The corrosion rate increases 
significantly above 60% RH. 
This threshold for damage as the 
result of humidity also applies to 
other materials, such as powdery 
substances, packaging, wood and 
electronic units.

Buildings may be dried in a variety 
of ways:

1.   

By heating and air exchange:

   The air in the room is heated in 

order for moisture to be removed 
and then this air is fed outside. 
All of the energy that is involved 
is lost together with the moist air 
that is released.

2.   

By air dehumidification:

   The moist air that is present 

within an enclosed space is 
continuously dehumidified 
according to the condensation 
principle.

The correlations occurring when 
air is dehumidified are based on 
physical laws.  
These are depicted here in graphical 
form in order to provide you with 
a brief overview of the principles of 
air dehumidification.

Using Climia air dehumidifiers

   Even if windows and doors 

are well insulated, water and 
moisture are still capable of 
penetrating thick concrete walls.

   The water required for setting 

in the production of concrete, 
mortar and plaster etc. may only 
be diffused after 1-2 months.

   Even moisture trapped in the 

masonry after high-water or a 
flood is released very slowly.

   The same is also true of moisture 

contained in stored materials for 
example.

The moisture (water vapour) 
released from parts of a building 
or materials is absorbed by the 
surrounding air. As a result, the 
moisture content increases, which 
ultimately gives rise to corrosion, 
mould, rot, peeling of paint and 
other unwanted damage.

By way of example, the diagram 
shows the corrosion rate of metal in 
different levels of humidity.

6.0 Air dehumidification

CLIMIA

With regard to energy consumption, 
air dehumidification has one 
distinct advantage: 

Energy expenditure is limited 
exclusively to the air volumes 
present. The mechanical heat that 
is released by the dehumidification 
process is fed back into the room. 

Under normal use, the air 

dehumidifier uses 

approximately 25% of the 

energy that is required for 

the "heating and ventilating" 

principle.

Relative air humidity

Our ambient air is a gaseous 
mixture which always contains 
a certain volume of water in the 
form of water vapour. This volume 
of water is specified in g per kg of 
dry air (absolute moisture content). 

1m

3

 of air weighs approx. 1.2 kg 

at 20°C

Depending on the temperature, 
each kg of air is only capable of 
absorbing a certain volume of 
water vapour. Once this capacity 
has been reached, the air is referred 
to as “saturated” and has a relative 
humidity (RH) of 100 %. 

Relative humidity is understood to 
mean the ratio between the current 
quantity of water vapour in the air 
and the maximum possible quantity 
of water vapour at the same 
temperature. 

The ability of the air to absorb water 
vapour increases as the temperature 
rises. I.e. the maximum possible 
(absolute) water content becomes 
greater as the temperature rises.

Building materials and structures 
are capable of absorbing 
considerable volumes of water, 
such as brick 90-190 l/m³, heavy 
concrete 140-190 l/m³ and 
limestone 180-270 l/m³. 
The drying of moist materials such 
as masonry is effected as follows:

   

The moisture moves 
from the inside of 
the material to its 
surface

   Evaporation occurs on the 

surface = Transfer of water 
vapour to the ambient air

   The air containing water vapour 

is constantly circulated through 
the air dehumidifier. The air 
is dehumidified and, slightly 
heated, leaves the unit in order 
to re-absorb water vapour

   In this way, the moisture 

contained in the material is 
reduced gradually. 

The material is dried!

The accumulated condensate is 
collected in the unit and drained off 
from there.

Water vapour condensation

Because the capacity for the 
maximum possible volume of 
water vapour increases as the air is 
heated, the volume of water vapour 
contained remains constant and so 
relative humidity falls.

In contrast, because the capacity for 
the maximum possible volume of 
water vapour decreases as the air is 
cooled, the volume of water vapour 
contained remains constant and so 
relative humidity increases.
If the temperature continues to 
fall, the capacity for the maximum 
possible volume of water vapour 
is reduced so much so that it is 
ultimately equal to the volume of 
water vapour contained in the air.  
This temperature is referred to as 
the dew point. If the air is cooled to 
below the dew point, the volume of 
water vapour in the air will become 
greater than the maximum possible 
volume of water vapour.
At this point, the water vapour 
begins to precipitate.
This condenses to water and 
moisture is removed from the air.

Examples of condensation include 
steamed-up window panes in 
winter, or the moisture on the 
outside of a cold drinks bottle.

As the relative humidity of the air 
increases, so too does the dew 
point, making it easier for the 
temperature to fall below it.

Condensation heat

The Energy transferred to the air 
from the condenser consists of:

1.   The amount of heat derived 

beforehand in the evaporator.

2.  The electrical drive energy.

3.   The condensation heat released 

by liquefying the water vapour. 

Energy must be supplied when 
liquid is converted into a gas. This 
energy is designated as evaporation 
heat. It does not cause any increase 
in temperature, but is required 
to convert a liquid into a gas. 
Conversely, energy is released when 
gas is liquefied, this is designated as 
condensation heat. 

The amount of energy from 
evaporation heat and condensation 
heat is the same.   

For water, this is:  

2250 kJ/kg (4.18 kJ = 1kcal)

From this it is evident that the 
condensation of water vapour 
causes a large quantity of energy to 
be released.

If the moisture that it is to be 
condensed is not introduced by 
evaporation in the room itself, 
but from outside, e.g. through 
ventilation, the condensation heat 
released contributes to the heating 
of the room. With drying operations, 
a heat cycle is created, whereby 
heat is consumed for evaporation 
and released for condensation. 
When dehumidifying fed air, 
a larger contribution of heat is 
created, which manifests itself as 
a temperature increase. 

Generally speaking, the time 

required for the drying process is 

not only dependent on the output 

of the unit, but is determined to 

a greater extent by the speed at 

which the material or building 

section loses its moisture.

7.0 Unit description

In dehumidification mode, one of 

the “Fan stage” indicator lights on 

the control panel illuminates.

The fan extracts the moist room air 

through the intake grill with filter, 

evaporator and the condenser 

behind.

Heat is removed from the room air 

on the cold 

evaporator

. The air is 

then cooled to below dew point.  

The water vapour contained in 

the room air is then deposited 

as condensate or rime on the 

evaporator fins.

On the 

condenser

 (heat exchanger), 

the cold and dehumidified air is 

warmed up again and discharged 

back into the room via the outlet 

grill with a temperature increase of 

around 5 - 10 °C above the room 

temperature.

The processed, dry air then re-mixes 

with the room air. 

Continuous circulation of the room 

air through the unit gradually 

reduces the relative humidity (% RH) 

in the room to the desired humidity 

level.

Depending on the room air 

temperature and the relative 

humidity, condensed water will drip 

into the condensate trap and then 

through the integrated discharge 

The units have been designed for 

universal and straightforward air 

dehumidification. 

Their compact dimensions allow the 

unit to be transported and set up 

with ease.

The units operate in accordance 

with the condensation principle and 

are equipped with a hermetically 

sealed refrigerant system, heat gas 

defrosting, low-noise and low-

maintenance fan and connection 

cable with plug.

The fully automatic control, the 

variable hygrostat, the condensate 

container with integrated overflow 

protection and the connection 

nozzle for condensate drainage 

guarantee fault-free continuous 

operation. 

The units conform to the 

fundamental health and safety 

requirements of the appropriate EU 

stipulations.

The units are dependable and offer 

ease of operation.

The units are used in all locations, 

where dry air s a must and where 

economic consequential damage 

(such as that caused by mould) 

must be prevented. 

The units may be used for the 

drying and dehumidification of 

areas such as:

   Living rooms, bedrooms, shower 

rooms or cellar rooms 

   Laundry rooms, weekend homes, 

caravans

   Warehouses, archives, 

laboratories 

   Bathrooms, wash rooms and 

changing rooms etc.

   Basements, storage rooms

8.0 Set-up

For the best economic and safe use 
of the units, the following notes 
must be followed in full: 

   The units must be set up in an 

upright and level position, to 
ensure that the condensate can 
drain freely 

   To ensure optimum air 

circulation, the units should be 
set up in the centre of the room, 
where possible 

   Ensure that the room air can 

be sucked in and discharged 
without hindrances

   Observe a minimum clearance of 

50 cm from walls at all times

   Units must never be set up in the 

immediate vicinity of heaters or 
other sources of heat

   Air circulation is improved if the 

unit is set up approx. 1 m above 
the ground 

   The room being dried or 

dehumidified must be closed to 
the surrounding atmosphere

   Avoid having opened windows 

and doors etc., and avoid 
frequent entry to or exit from the 
room as much as possible

   The units may not be used in 

environments containing a 
great deal of dust or chlorine, 
or in places with atmospheres 
containing ammonia 

   The output of the unit is 

entirely dependent on the 
conditions inside the room, room 
temperature, relative humidity 
and observance of the set-up 
instructions

Min. 0.5 m

9.0 Commissioning

Before commissioning the unit or if 
local requirements dictate, the air-
inlet grill and air-outlet grill must be 
checked for contamination.

Important notes prior to 

commissioning 

   All extensions to the electrical 

connection must be of 
a sufficient cable size and must 
only be used fully rolled out or 
unrolled

   Never use the power supply 

connection cable as a pull cord 

   After being switched on, 

the units operate fully-
automatically until switched off 
by the hygrostat or float when 
the condensate container is full 

   The condensate container must 

be inserted properly 

 

The unit cannot be operated 

if the condensate container 

is not inserted properly!

   In order to prevent damage to 

the condenser, the units are 
equipped with a mechanism that 
prevents the compressor being 
immediately switched back on 
after it is switched off 

The units do not switch back 

on until a waiting time of 

around 3 minutes has elapsed!

   If the units work in continuous 

operation with an external 
condensate drainage 
connection, refer to the relevant 
section

NOTE

A contaminated grille or filter 

must be cleaned or replaced 

immediately.

switch on the unit. 

3. Use the arrow keys to set the 
required air humidity of the 
installation room.
The air humidity can be set at 
increments of 5 %.  

 The recommended approximate 
setting values are listed in the 
adjacent section.

Adjusting units/moisture

The unit’s dehumidification power 
is entirely dependent on the 
conditions inside the room, the 
room temperature, the relative 
humidity and observance of the 
notes in the “Setting up” chapter. 

 


background image

CTK 240 mobile air dehumidifier

The following notes must also be 

observed in full: 

   Ensure that the air can discharge 

without hindrances 

This is the only way to 

guarantee optimum unit 

operation!

 

   Ensure that sensitive objects 

such as house plants are not 
placed directly in the air flow 
emerging from the unit.

Automatic defrost system 

The moisture contained in the 

room air condenses when cooling 

and coats the evaporator fins with 

rime or ice depending on the 

air temperature and the relative 

humidity (% RH). 

The automatic defrost system that is 

integrated in the unit switches the 

defrost cycle on if required. 

The rime or ice that has 

accumulated on the exchanger 

surfaces is defrosted using 

electronic circulation mode as 

required. 

This tried and tested defrosting 

method guarantees high 

dehumidification performance.

Dehumidification mode is paused 

during the defrost phase. 

The “Defrost mode” indicator light 

indicates that the defrost cycle is 

running. 

The higher the room temperature 
and relative air humidity, the higher 
the dehumidification power. 

A relative humidity of around 
45 to 60 % is sufficient in living 
rooms. The air humidity should not 
exceed 40 to 45 % in 
warehouses, archives, etc. 

Timer function

The units feature an integrated 
timer function. 

Pressing the timer key switches the 
unit’s automatic mode on and off. 

If automatic mode is switched off, 
the arrow keys can be used to set 
the required operating time. 

The operating time can be set for a 
maximum of 24 hours in increments 
of an hour.

The unit will switch itself off 
automatically after the set time has 
elapsed.

NOTE

If the room temperature is 

sufficiently high (>12 °C), the 

surface of the fins will not be 

cold enough for rime formation 

to occur, rendering defrosting 

unnecessary.  

Therefore, the air dehumidifier 

works economically.

 

Emptying the condensate 

container

The integrated condensate 
container must be emptied from 
time to time. 

Dehumidification mode is switched 
off if the condensate container is 
full. 
The “BUCKET FULL” indicator light 
indicates that the unit has switched 
off. 

1.  Pull the full container forwards 

and out carefully. 

2.  Pour the water into a drain.

3.  Re-insert the emptied container 

carefully into the unit. 

The “BUCKET FULL” indicator light 
extinguishes and the unit continues 
to run automatically. 

NOTE

For economical and technical 

reasons, the units must not 

be operated at an ambient 

temperature below 5 °C.

 

NOTE

After being emptied, the 

condensate container incl. float 

must be checked for damage, 

contamination etc.

NOTE

The unit can only be started once 

the condensate container has 

been inserted correctly.

NOTE

The devices can be switched ON 

and OFF via an external timer or 

a Smart Home socket if required.

Ensure that the drainage hose is 

placed at an incline to the drain 

to allow the condensate to drain 

without hindrance! 

NOTE

Beware of dripping condensate. 

After switching off the units, the 

evaporator may continue to 

defrost under the influence of the 

ambient temperature. 

CAUTION!

The mains cable must never 

be used as a pull cord or fixing 

device.

All moving parts have a low-
maintenance permanent 
coat of lubricant. The entire 
refrigerant system is designed as 
a maintenance-free, hermetically 
sealed system and may only be 
repaired by a specialist.

   Observe the regular care and 

maintenance intervals

   In accordance with the operating 

conditions, the units must be 
checked as required but at least 
yearly by a specialist to ensure 
that they are in a condition that 
is safe to use

   Only clean the units with a dry or 

damp cloth 

Do not use a water jet!

 

   Never use abrasive or solvent-

based cleaners 

   Even with heavy contamination, 

use only suitable cleaners

   Check the inlet and outlet grille 

for contamination on a regular 
basis 

Clean or replace if required!

12.0 Care and maintenance

Cleaning the condenser and 

evaporator 

The unit housing must be opened 
to allow the inside of the unit to be 
cleaned and to provide access to 
electrical components. 

   Clean the condenser and 

the evaporator by blowing, 
vacuuming or using a soft brush.

 

Do not use water jets!

   Clean the interior surfaces on the 

units, the condensate traps with 
hose connection, the fan and the 
fan housing carefully

   Check all unit components for 

damage and repair if necessary

   Carefully refit all parts that were 

removed in reverse order

NOTE

Regular care and maintenance 

is fundamental to a long service 

life and fault-free operation of 

the unit.

CAUTION!

Before undertaking any work on 

the units, the power plug must be 

removed from the mains socket.

NOTE

Adjustment and maintenance 

work may only be carried out 

by authorised and qualified 

technicians.

NOTE

When cleaning the exchanger, 

particular care must be taken 

because the fine aluminium fins 

bend very easily.

CAUTION!

An electrical safety check must 

be carried out in accordance with 

VDE 0701 after any work on the 

units.

Filter cleaning

To prevent damage to the unit, it is 
equipped with an intake grill with 
integrated air filter. 

In order to prevent power losses 
or unit faults, the intake grill with 
filter must be inspected as required, 
but every 2 weeks at the latest, 
and cleaned if necessary. 

1.  Use the “POWER" key to switch 

the unit off.

2.  Remove the power plug from the 

mains socket. 

3.  Reach into the recessed grip and 

remove the air filter. 

4.  Clean the air filter with lukewarm 

water or a vacuum cleaner. 

CAUTION!

The unit is not permitted to be 

operated without the air filter 

fitted!

13. 0 Troubleshooting

The units are manufactured 
using state-of-the-art production 
methods and tested several times to 
verify their correct function. 

However, if a functional fault 
should occur, the unit should first 
be checked in accordance with the 
following list.

5.  Heavier contamination may be 

remedied by rinsing the filter 
in a lukewarm (max. 40°C) soap 
solution.  
Finally, always rinse the filter 
carefully with clear water and 
allow to dry!

6.  Also check the intake grill for 

contamination and clean if 
necessary.

7

.

  Before refitting grill and filter, 

ensure that they are fully dry 
and that no damage has been 
sustained. 

The unit runs but condensate is 

not formed:

 

   Check the room temperature.

The operating range of the unit is 
between 5 °C and 32°C

 

   Check the air humidity 

min. 30 % RH required

   Check the intake grill and air 

filter for contamination 

Clean or replace if required!

   Have the heat exchanger fins 

checked for contamination 

This work requires the unit to 

be opened and must therefore 

only be carried out by an 

authorised specialist company! 

The unit is loud or condensate 

runs out:

 

   Check whether the unit is on 

a stable and even base

   Check whether the unit is 

standing upright and stably

   Have the condensate trap or 

the connection nozzles checked 
to see whether there are dirt 
deposits on them 

This work requires the unit to 

be opened and must therefore 

only be carried out by an 

authorised specialist company!

 

NOTE

Heavily contaminated or 

damaged air filters must be 

replaced with new parts.

Only original spare parts may be 

used.

NOTE

Adjustment and maintenance 

work may only be carried out 

by authorised and qualified 

technicians.

The unit does not start: 

   Check the hygrostat’s setting

The set value must be lower 
than the relative humidity in the 
installation room!

   Check the power supply and 

the power fuse provided by the 
customer 

230V/1~/50 Hz

 

   Check the power plug and the 

cable for damage

   Check the condensate bucket’s fill 

level and seating 

The “Bucket full” indicator light 
must not be illuminated! 

   Check that the microswitch [MS] 

on the condensate bucket is 
functioning 

   Check that the inlet and outlet 

are free 

Overheating!

   Check the fuse on the control 

board

NOTE

The units work with 

environmentally-friendly and 

ozone-neutral R134a refrigerant.  

The mixture of refrigerant and oil 

within the unit must be disposed 

of properly in accordance 

with the statutory or locally-

applicable regulations.

NOTE

If the unit fails to function 

correctly after the checks have 

been carried out, contact an 

authorised specialist. 

CAUTION!

Work on the refrigerant system 

and on the electrical equipment 

must only be conducted by a 

specially authorised specialist!
