The universal all-rounder
Whether drying out after water damage, drying out new buildings or keeping heated and unheated storage rooms dry - the 170S is a universally applicable dehumidifier with high-quality workmanship and reliable operation. It is manufactured in a specialized factory in Europe. It is built to last, is easy to care for, requires little maintenance and is very affordable considering its power and quality .
Easy operation
The desired target humidity can be continuously regulated between 32 - 100% using a mechanical hygrostat; continuous operation is also possible. The high air circulation volume of an impressive 580 cubic meters per hour is particularly useful in larger zones. With its stable carriage construction and large wheels, frequent changes of location can be carried out very easily.
bucket, direct hose connection and optional pump kit
The water that is extracted from the air flows into the 6-litre bucket. This is on a scale that automatically stops operation when it is full. A control lamp indicates that the bucket is full. It is also possible to connect a hose if the water can be drained away directly. In this case, the hose must have a gradient towards the drain. If this is not possible, a suitable pump kit is available as an option, with which the water can be pumped up and away.
The operating switch and level warning light are protected against dust and splash water by a protective cap and a slotted hygrostat rotary switch protects against accidental adjustment of the switch position.
Professional hot gas defrosting
Inside, a professional hot gas automatic defrosting system ensures effective dehumidification results. The finned evaporators are particularly effective in temperatures above 10°C and in humidity levels above 40%. Technically, the dryer can also be used in lower temperatures down to around 5°C, even in unattended continuous operation.
Optional counters
The delivery does not include an hour or consumption meter. You can order these from us if you wish (the housing is prepared for retrofitting as standard). You can choose between a pure hour meter or the combined dual meter, which measures hours and power consumption. The meters are MID-compliant. Outside Switzerland, dryers used professionally must already be MID-compliant.
Propane (R290) as an environmentally friendly refrigerant in dehumidifiers
Every year, synthetic refrigerants release several million tons of environmentally harmful CO2 emissions (greenhouse gases) into the air. Therefore, the use of alternative refrigerants is one of our most important goals. By using propane (R290) as a refrigerant, this dehumidifier makes a valuable contribution to climate protection. The natural refrigerant propane (R290) is an organic compound and is a hydrocarbon. In contrast to synthetic refrigerants, environmentally friendly propane (R290) has neither ozone depletion potential (ODP=0) nor a significant greenhouse effect (GWP=3).
Additional benefit for the environment: Due to its excellent thermodynamic properties, propane (R290) is a particularly energy-efficient refrigerant and thus also reduces your energy costs.
