Why is the pressure drop so high across my Gardner Denver RNC125 Dehumidifier?
- D
  Dennis AllenAug 19, 2025
  A high-pressure drop across your Gardner Denver Dehumidifier can stem from a few reasons. First, check the flow rate to ensure it's not excessive. Freezing of moisture in the evaporator due to a refrigeration system fault can also cause this issue. Lastly, a clogged separator or optional Oil Removal filter element could be the culprit; if so, replace the filter element(s).

  Michael MillsAug 22, 2025
  If the refrigeration system of your Gardner Denver Dehumidifier isn't working right, begin by checking the power to the unit. Ensure the ON/OFF switch is in the “ON” position and that the line disconnect switch is closed. Inspect fuses and breakers for continuity. Have an electrician examine the wiring for any faults or loose terminals. Also, check if ambient conditions are within the specified minimum and maximum temperature ranges. For air-cooled models, ensure the condenser fins are clean and that there is free airflow across the condenser. If the problem continues, further assistance is required.

  If the refrigeration system of your Gardner Denver Dehumidifier isn't working correctly, begin by checking the power supply to the unit. If the power light is off, ensure the unit is receiving power. If the compressor light is off, turn the switch to the “ON” position. If the refrigeration compressor cycles on and off, close the disconnect switch. Check for continuity and have an electrician inspect the electrical connections. Also, verify the minimum and maximum temperature ranges, and clean the condenser, ensuring free airflow. If the problem continues, further assistance is required.

Why is the dew point indicator in the red area on my Gardner Denver RNC125?
- L
  lauramcdonaldSep 3, 2025
  If the dew point indicator on your Gardner Denver Dehumidifier is in the red area, it could be due to the dryer being overloaded, resulting in a high air outlet temperature. It may also be because the refrigeration system is not functioning properly, also leading to a high air outlet temperature. If the dryer is running with no load, the light will go out when air flow is established.
