Operating principle
FAIRLAND console dehumidifiers are used to limit the relative humidity in an enclosed space containing a
pool or spa to a value selected by the user (between 30% and 99%). They should be installed inside the
room to be dehumidified.
This dehumidifier is designed to operate with an ambient temperature between 10°C and 38°C. Performance
data is not guaranteed outside this range.
If the dehumidifier is fitted with the heating option, it may be used to increase the room temperature to a
value selected by the user (between 18°C and 32°C). As soon as the room temperature drops below this
value, the heating system will be activated to raise the temperature to the set point. Should the temperature
spontaneously rise above the set point, heating will remain stopped.
This paragraph will help explain how a FAIRLAND dehumidifier works and provide a better understanding
of the importance of the provisions concerning installation, use and maintenance set out in this document.
•
A heat transfer fluid travels in a loop in a copper circuit, as it travels it experiences the following
cycle:
•
Step 1: warm, humid ambient air from the room to be dehumidified is drawn at a high flow rate over
a fin-type radiator in which cold fluid is circulating, this is the evaporator. Upon contact with the
evaporator, the air temperature falls until it reaches the condensation point of water vapour, which
causes the water to condense in fine droplets. At the same time, the heat transfer fluid recovers
the calories given up by the ambient air.
•
Step 2: the fluid enters the compressor where it experiences a high increase in pressure and an
increase in temperature.
•
Step 3: the cold, dehumidified air then passes over a second fin-type radiator located behind
the evaporator, the condenser, through which the hot heat transfer fluid from the compressor is
circulating, this heats the cold, dehumidified air before it is returned to the pool room.
•
Step 4: the heat transfer fluid passes into the expansion chamber where it is returned to its initial
temperature and pressure, before returning to step 1 to restart the cycle.
Thus, the compressor and the expansion chamber is composed of two half-loops:
•
the half-loop on the condenser side is called the HP (High Pressure) loop.
•
the half-loop on the evaporator side is called the LP (Low Pressure) loop.
Start up of the compressor is slaved to the dehumidification demand.
The user may choose to allow the fan to run continuously or for the fan to stop when there is no
dehumidification or heating demand (refer to setting of parameter C8 in paragraph VI.11). Running the fan
at low speed in the absence of a dehumidification or heating demand creates continuous movement that
homogenises the air in the room and allows more precise control of these two parameters.

The machine is fitted with a n air circulation defrosting function.
Installation
Take into account the minimum distance limitations between the dehumidifier and the water body,
specified in the regulations in effect, when selecting the installation site.
If the machine is free-standing, it must be set on solid, stable and horizontal surface.
The dehumidifier is delivered with 4 height adjustable, vibration damping pads to be
screwed into place beneath the machine.
A flexible, translucent condensate drainage tube (length 2 m) is
also supplied. This should be connected to the machine under the
power cable connection.
The dehumidifier may also be mounted on
a wall using the two slots located on the
rear panel. Before mounting the device on
a wall, verify that the wall, and the means
of anchoring it to the wall, will support the
weight of the machine.
The remote installed control pad is fitted with a 10 m cable attached by a
quick disconnect fitting. The control pad is not watertight so it should be
protected from the elements
.

The control panel is delivered with a wall mounting bracket.
1.
Remove the 2 screws from the mounting bracket.
2.
Mount the bracket on the wall in the desired position (out of the reach of children) using the 2 central
slots or the 4 peripheral slots (screws and bushings are not supplied).
3.
The cut out for the cable should face down
(to avoid streaming of condensates inside the control
panel).
4.
Unclip the rear casing of the control panel.
5.
Fix the rear casing of the control panel to the bracket using the 2 screws previously removed from
the mounting bracket.
6.
Clip the control panel onto its rear face.
Electrical wiring
The power cable is comprised of three strands (live = brown ; neutral =
blue ; earth = green and yellow), it is 1.5 m long.
To extend the power cable, use a cable with strands of the same cross section
if the total length of the cable will not exceed 10 m. If the cable in longer than
10 m, use an extension cable with strands that have a wider cross section.
Solder the wires together, use heat shrink tubing to insulate the soldered
connections.
The power cable must be connected to a thermal
magnetic protection device or a fuse holder + fuse,
rated fro the machine’s power consumption.
We strongly recommend that the machine’s power
line be protected by a 30 mA RCD.
Even with an extension, the control cable may not be longer than 50 meters. To extend the cable, use
cable with the same cross sections and connect the wires as described previously.

Nota
bene
:
The relative humidity control differential is +/-5%:
As soon as the relative humidity rises at least 5% above the set point, the compressor and the fan will start
if the machine is in dehumidification mode or in dehumidification + heating mode (option).
Inversely, as soon as the relative humidity falls at least 5% below the set point, the machine will stop
dehumidifying the air.
Selecting the temperature set point (if the heating option is installed and active):
If the optional heating element is installed, the parameter C1 will need to be configured, see paragraph
VI.11.
It is possible to select the minimum air temperature to be maintained in the room. If the temperature in the
room rises above the set point, the dehumidifier will not be able to cool it.

Automatic defrosting:
When the ambient temperature is low (around 10°C), the surface temperature of the fins and
evaporator tubes could be below 0°C while the machine is running in dehumidification mode.
This can lead to freezing of the condensates on the evaporator.
Accumulated frost will obstruct the air flow and hinder the refrigeration cycle. Before this phenomenon
becomes too pronounced, the machine is programmed to automatically trigger a defrosting cycle by
stopping the compressor and the circulation of air.
The symbol
will appear on the control panel screen.
The air will gradually melt the frost, the compressor will restart automatically once the frost is completely
melted.
Nota bene:
For the defrosting function to be effective, it is important not to run the machine at ambient
temperatures below 10°C.
Shutting down the device:
Press the On/ Off button.
The compressor will stop, approximately 30 seconds later, the fan will also stop.
Nota bene
There is a minimum time delay before the fan and compressor can be restarted (approximately
30 seconds for the fan and approximately 2 minutes for the compressor).
