NOTE: In case the mains connection has recently been pulled (i.e. newly installed EBCs, power
outage,...), the humidity level inside your case might not have been in range over a longer period of time
than those 30 minutes. It might in fact have been outside that range for up to the time span set in the menu
for the first humidity alarm, instead (see section 4.5.5 "Menu entry 1. Alarm", p. 30).
5.1.2 Remaining EBC functions during this alarm
 Humidify: Yes
 Dehumidify: Yes
 Air circulation between case and EBC: Yes
 Pump: Yes
 Fan(s) for the device cooling: Yes
 Slave control: Yes
5.1.3 Possible reasons and solutions
 Absence of ventilation for the device's self-produced heat. Check the dust filter(s) at the cooling air
inlet(s) - it/they might need cleaning/washing or replacement (see section 7 "Maintenance and care", p.
47). Keep the device's cooling air grills/slits always free and provide for enough ventilation at the device's
place of installation! Beware that the EBC might overheat otherwise! See also section 3.2 "Setting up the
EBC, establishing the hosepipe connections", p. 12.
 No or not enough water in the bottle - in this case the pump alarm would be issued, too, after some time.
Refill the bottle (see section 4.7 "Controlling, feeding, emptying and cleaning the bottle", p. 37).
 Faulty water handling system (pump, silicone pipe,...). See the reasons and solutions outlined for the
pump alarm (p. 40).
 Case doors are open or have recently been open (i.e. for works within the case). Reset the alarm and let
the system balance for some more time. See also section 4.5.5 "Menu entry 1. Alarm" on p. 30.
 The alarm delay is chosen too short for the concrete system (i.e. due to exceptionally humid artefacts).
Reset the alarm and let the system balance for some more time. See also section 4.5.5 "Menu entry 1.
Alarm" on p. 30.
 Inappropriate application/installation/handling of the device, especially regarding airtight hosepipe
connections, an airtight lead-through of the sensor cable through the case wall and the position of the
sensor in the case. Please read the manual again section by section and check/change the realised
