The new "Secomat4" from Krüger impresses with its very simple operation and well thought-out functionality. The design has been modernized and even won the "Reddot" award. The device is suitable for single-family homes with increased drying frequency or multi-family homes with low drying requirements. It achieves a drying performance of approx. 3 washing machine loads per day. Available in anthracite, and also in azure blue.
service
The basic idea of the new generation is that the dryer only needs to be switched on once. The highly developed software and various sensors then take over operation fully automatically. The following functions can be selected at the touch of a button:
• Dry laundry only: the drying process continues until the laundry is dry. If there is no laundry hanging or if the laundry is dry, the appliance pauses.
• Drying laundry and room monitoring: if laundry is hanging, it is dried. When the laundry is dry or if there is no laundry hanging, the Secomat switches to general room monitoring. The humidity in the room is kept just below the limit of 60% RH to prevent odors and mold growth.
• Room monitoring only: the device can also be used as a room dehumidifier without drying laundry. The humidity in the room is kept just below the limit of 60% RH to prevent odors and mold formation.
Wi-Fi and app
Anyone who wants to monitor or change the dryer and its operation can do so easily via their mobile phone using the well-developed app. To do this, the device must be within range of a WiFi network in the house.
sensors
Like most dehumidifiers on the market, the new Secomats also have humidity sensors. These measure the humidity in the room and provide information on the drying process of the laundry. They also control the ventilation level: while very wet laundry releases sufficient moisture even with a low ventilation level, the ventilation is increased the drier the laundry is. This is to optimally blow the residual moisture out of the laundry and to keep the laundry as smooth as possible in the wind.
Another sensor is an optical sensor. This remembers the room when it is empty and can therefore detect when laundry is hanging. If laundry is detected, the device switches to laundry drying mode. It can distinguish whether the items are statically hanging (= laundry) or moving objects such as people or animals. Their movement does not trigger the drying process.
airway and filter
The moist room air is sucked in at the front in the lower area, dried and then blown out into the room at high speed in the upper area. An air filter cleans the sucked-in air of dirt and fine dust. It is washable and has been greatly improved compared to previous generations. It is now housed in a solid folding door and is easy to remove.
water drainage
The extracted water is drained away via a hose connection. The connection is in the base of the device near the wall, so that the water runs practically vertically via a hose into a siphon installed underneath. The water can also be drained away sideways using an angle coupling.
assembly
Wall mounting is relatively quick and easy, with little manual skill required. A support rail is fixed to the wall with three screws, and the dryer can then be hung on this support rail. The support rail of the previous generation is compatible, so no new holes need to be drilled. All necessary mounting material such as rail, screws, dowels and hose coupling is included in the delivery.
