Why is there water in my HANKISON SPXFLOW HSHD-21 Dehumidifier compressed-air system?

  Dr. Douglas AdamsJul 25, 2025
  If there's water in your HANKISON Dehumidifier's compressed-air system, it could be due to several reasons. Condensate residues might have formed before starting the dryer. In this case, blow out the compressed-air system with dry air until no more moisture condenses out, opening the collection point at the most remote position if possible. Alternatively, the bypass may be open, so ensure it is closed. It's also possible that condensate from the prefilter is not being properly separated, requiring a check and repair by trained staff if necessary. Finally, if the operating parameters have changed since the dehumidifier was installed, correct them back to the original design specifications.

Why is there high pressure loss in my HANKISON SPXFLOW HSHD-21 Dehumidifier?
- C
  clarkejacobJul 31, 2025
  A high pressure loss through your HANKISON desiccant compressed air Dehumidifier may be caused by an overloaded pre- or after-filter cartridge. Replace the filter cartridge to resolve this. Also, verify that the operating parameters are consistent with the dryer's original design; if they've changed, restore them to the specified conditions.

What to do if my HANKISON SPXFLOW HSHD-21 display shows 204 PDP Alarm?
- C
  Carrie EatonAug 4, 2025
  If your HANKISON Dehumidifier displays error code 204 (LED Warning/ Service/ Alarm flashes red) indicating a PDP Alarm, it could be due to several reasons. The desiccant dryer may have only been switched on briefly; in this case, operate it for a while with a low load. Alternatively, the desiccant dryer might be overloaded, so adapt the operating conditions to the permitted parameters. It's also possible that the PDP sensor is defective, so check the PDP sensor and replace it if needed.

  Steven PetersonAug 15, 2025
  If your HANKISON Dehumidifier displays error 210 (LED Warning/ Service/ Alarm glows red) indicating a PDP Sensor cable break, it could be due to a broken PDP sensor cable. Check the electrical connection and replace the cable if necessary. Another possibility is that the PDP sensor is not connected, in which case you should switch off the PDP control.
