1 - INTRODUCTION
The engineers at Munters have designed the HoneyCombe
®
dehumidifier using state-
of-the-art technology. The unit is durable, simple to operate, and needs very little
maintenance.
The R-Series unit can provide years of trouble-free service when the recommendations
listed in this manual are followed. It is strongly recommended that this entire manual is
read prior to operating the equipment. The manual describes how the dehumidifier works,
and how to get the best service from the unit. While a Munters dehumidifier is easy to
operate, it is a bit different from most air handling equipment.
The R-Series unit includes a heater which is used to remove moisture from the unit. (The
heater is used to “reactivate” the material in the R-Series unit which dries the air.) The R-
Series units described in this manual have electric and direct fired gas reactivation.
Figure 1-1 shows a typical unit.
