onto the collar of the connecting fl ange and fi x it with a lashing strap. Fastening
eyes are provided for hanging up/fastening the exhaust air hose.
3. Operation
Air dehumidifi cation/building drying can take several weeks until the moisture
has been drawn out of concrete, masonry, plaster and screed etc. The room
temperature may rise slightly. Use a hygrometer for additional monitoring of
the humidity.
3.1. Switch on the REMS Secco 50 with the On/Off button (Fig. 6 (13)). The fan
starts. You can select between two speed steps with the fan speed button (22).
The selected fan speed is displayed by the LEDs (23). The temperature/timer
display (24) shows the currently measured temperature. The temperature unit
"degrees Celsius" or "degrees Fahrenheit" can be selected with the temperature
unit button (25). The humidity display (14) shows the currently measured
relative humidity. The device is pre-set to 60 % relative humidity. Set the desired
humidity between 30 and 90 % with the two buttons (15). Briefl y pressing the
button changes the value by 5 % and the humidity display (14) fl ashes. The
humidity value in the display (14) changes automatically after setting and shows
the currently measured relative humidity again. The device regulates the humidity
of the room to be dehumidifi ed and switches off on reaching the set humidity.
The device switches back on when the room humidity increases. The set
humidity of 30% corresponds to continuous operation, the device usually
dehumidifi es permanently. When draining the condensation into the conden-
sation tank (9), the device switches off when the condensation tank is full. Then
the condensation tank LED (6) fl ashes and an acoustic signal sounds once.
Empty the condensation tank and put it back in. Dehumidifi cation is continued.
There is no need to switch off the device to empty the condensation tank. When
using the condensation tank with pump Secco 50 (accessory Art. No. 132129),
the condensation tank is emptied by the pump.
REMS Secco 50 can be set to an operating time of 1 to 24 hours. Press the
timer button (26) for this. The temperature/operating time display (24) fl ashes.
Set the desired operating time with the buttons (15) whilst the display is fl ashing.
The value is changed by one hour by briefl y pressing the buttons. The timer
LED (27) lights when the timer is switched on. REMS Secco 50 switches off
when the set operating time runs out. The timer is deactivated at the "00" setting.
The memory function of the REMS Secco 50 ensures that the set humidity
value is retained in the event of a power failure. The device then automatically
continues dehumidifi cation with the previously set value. The compressor
switches on with a delay of approx. 3 minutes for protection but the fan starts
immediately.
NOTICE
When draining the condensation into an external tank, it must be ensured that
this is emptied regularly and that the hose to the condensation drain (4) is laid
into the tank with a downward gradient. If the condensation is drained directly
into a drain pipe with a hose, this must also be laid with a downward gradient.
Do not bend the hoses to the condensation drain. If you do, the condensation
will run into the condensation tank.
The amount of condensation that forms is infl uenced by the temperature and
humidity of the room air. Recommended values in continuous operation:
12
30 °C (86 °F): 80 % r. h. = approx. 50 litres/day, 60 % r. h. = approx. 24 litres/day
20 °C (68 °F): 80 % r. h. = approx. 24 litres/day, 60 % r. h. = approx. 14 litres/day
15 °C (59 °F): 80 % r. h. = approx. 16 litres/day, 60 % r. h. = approx. 10 litres/day
10 °C (50 °F): 80 % r. h. = approx. 10 litres/day, 60 % r. h. = approx. 7 litres/day
(r. h. = relative humidity)
Water residue can drip from the condensation drain hose (4) after dehumidi-
fi cation.
3.2. Switch on the REMS Secco 80 with the On/Off button (13). All the symbols are
shown briefl y in the display (2), then the currently measured relative humidity
(14). The device is pre-set to 60 % relative humidity. Set the desired humidity
between 30 and 90 % with the two buttons (15). Briefl y pressing the buttons
changes the value by 1 %; keep the button pressed for longer for fast adjustment.
The humidity value (14) in the display (2) changes automatically after setting
and shows the currently measured relative humidity again. The device regulates
the humidity of the room to be dehumidifi ed and switches off on reaching the
set humidity. The device switches back on when the room humidity increases.
For continuous operation, set the humidity to < 30 % with the buttons (15) until
"CO" is shown in the humidity display (14). The humidity is not regulated during
continuous operation; the device dehumidifi es permanently. When the conden-
sation tank (9) (accessory, Art. No. 132100) is used, the device switches off
when the condensation tank is full. Then the "condensation tank" symbol (6)
and "E4" are shown in the display (2) and an acoustic signal sounds intermit-
tently. Empty the condensation tank and put it back in (Fig. 5). Dehumidifi cation
is continued. There is no need to switch off the device to empty the condensa-
tion tank. When using the condensation tank with pump Secco 80 (accessory
Art. No. 132121), the condensation tank is emptied by the pump.
The memory function of the REMS Secco 80 ensures that the set humidity
value is retained in the event of a power failure. The device then automatically
continues dehumidifi cation/drying with the previously set value. The compressor
switches on with a delay of approx. 3 minutes for protection. The compressor
symbol (16) fl ashes in the display (2), but the fan starts immediately.
NOTICE
When draining the condensation into an external tank, it must be ensured that
this is emptied regularly and that the hose to the condensation drain (4) is laid
into the tank with a downward gradient. If the condensation is drained directly
into a drain pipe with a hose, this must also be laid with a downward gradient.
Also check whether the hose to the condensation drain (4) is inserted into the
opening of the condensation tank (9). Do not bend the hoses to the conden-
sation drain. If you do, the condensation will overfl ow over the edge of the
collection tray in the device and spill onto the fl oor.
The amount of condensation that forms is infl uenced by the temperature and
humidity of the room air. Recommended values in continuous operation:
30 °C (86 °F): 80 % r. h. = approx. 80 litres/day, 60 % r. h. = approx. 40 litres/day
20 °C (68 °F): 80 % r. h. = approx. 40 litres/day, 60 % r. h. = approx. 22 litres/day
15 °C (59 °F): 80 % r. h. = approx. 28 litres/day, 60 % r. h. = approx. 16 litres/day
10 °C (50 °F): 80 % r. h. = approx. 16 litres/day, 60 % r. h. = approx. 11 litres/day
(r. h. = relative humidity)
Water residue can drip from the condensation drain hose (4) after dehumidifi -
cation.
