INDUSTRIAL DEHUMIDIFICATION

Product catalog summary
Overview
Hitachi's industrial dehumidifiers are engineered for diverse applications such as food drying, precision machinery room dehumidification, and concrete drying. They employ a refrigeration cycle to cool and condense humid air, effectively removing moisture. Models are available with reheating and cooling options to maintain stable room temperatures.
Product Line-Up
The product range includes compact floor models with advanced control features via an optional multi-function wired controller, enabling multiple unit control, remote operation, and easy timer settings.
Main Features
Models like RK-NP08PVX and RK-NP2LVX offer high dehumidification capacity and energy efficiency through inverter control, allowing for optimal performance under varying load conditions. A powerful mode is available for rapid response to increased dehumidification demands.
Specifications & Dimensions
Dehumidifiers come in various models with different compressor outputs and capacities. Inverter control optimizes energy use by adjusting compressor speed to maintain desired humidity levels.
Optional Parts and Modifications
A variety of optional parts, such as filter boxes and duct sets, are available. Installation is simplified with pre-assembled components like the plenum chamber.
Energy Conservation
Inverter models offer significant energy savings, reducing annual power consumption by up to 20% compared to constant speed types, based on warehouse conditions and dehumidification loads.
Operation Modes
Units feature auto, reheat, and cooling modes to adjust dehumidification capacity and maintain desired temperature and humidity levels. Heating and humidifying functions are not included.
Demand Control and Power Management
The demand control feature manages compressor operating current to limit maximum power consumption, with settings for power consumption at various percentages of rated power. A wave mode minimizes humidity fluctuations while reducing power consumption. Setup requires distributor assistance.
Operating Temperature Range
The dehumidifiers operate within a wide temperature range, suitable for various applications, with specific conditions for reheating and cooling operations.
Control Panel Features
The control panel supports a wired controller with features like powerful dehumidification mode, easy timer function, and power consumption display. Schedule management for power saving is also supported.
Power Saving Modes
Two modes, Peak save and Restrict, are available to cut power consumption and limit dehumidification capacity, respectively. Intermittent operation control alternates between dehumidification and thermo-off modes to conserve power.
Multiple Unit Control
Up to 10 dehumidifiers can be controlled from a single panel, with guidelines for wiring and compatibility between different product series.
Anticorrosive Coating
The indoor unit features a standard anticorrosive coating on the heat exchanger, with an option for a more effective cationic electro-deposition coating.
Specifications and Dimensions
Detailed specifications and dimensions for small floor type dehumidifiers are provided, including performance metrics and power supply requirements.
Electrical Wiring Diagrams
Wiring diagrams include factory and field wiring, terminal block codes, and PCB connections, with notes on using a ground-fault circuit interrupter and avoiding circuits that automatically restart after a protective device is triggered.
Performance Characteristics
Performance curves illustrate dehumidification capacity under various conditions, with guidelines for adjusting air volume using optional components.
Operational Notes
Operational noise levels are measured in echo-free environments, with actual noise potentially varying. Temperature rise in reheat mode may require additional air conditioning.
Installation and Maintenance
Installation guidelines cover service space requirements and instructions for connecting drain piping and power supply wiring, emphasizing the use of dedicated power outlets and proper grounding.
Antibacterial and Deodorant Air Filters
Antibacterial filters have activity values of 5.3 and 5.4, tested according to JIS standards. Deodorant filters are effective against certain odors but do not remove toxic substances like carbon monoxide.
Installation and Usage Notes
Remote control operations require a twisted-pair cable of 0.75mm2 or greater. Duct chambers are not self-supporting and may sag under their own weight.
Optional Parts and Models
Models like RK-NP2LVX, RK-NP4LVX, and RK-NP8LVX have specific parts such as plenum chambers and filter boxes, with detailed specifications for each filter type.
Filter Specifications
Long life filters have a 50% dust collection efficiency, while high-efficiency filters achieve 65% using the colorimetric method. Deodorant filters are designed for general life odors.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Filters can be reused by drying in sunlight or washing with water, but detergents should be avoided. Maintenance periods vary based on usage, and filters may decrease air volume and dehumidification capacity.
