The EDHUM070H plugs into a common grounded 115VAC outlet. The device draws 5.1 Amps at 80°F and
60% RH. Locate the dehumidier in an area where the cord’s length (9') easily reaches a 115 VAC electrical
outlet with a minimum of 15 Amp circuit capacity. If used in an area that may become wet, a GFCI protected
circuit is recommended. Consult local electrical codes for any further information.
There are multiple control devices that can be used with EDHUM070H. The controls are to be located
remotely from the dehumidier and placed in the space to be conditioned. Low voltage (24 Volt) controls can be
used with the EDHUM070H and MUST be connected with low voltage (18-22 gauge) thermostat wire.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
CAUTION!CAUTION!
DO NOT ALLOW THE 24V TERMINAL TO CONTACT THE COM/DMPR TERMINALS ON THE
EDHUM070H OR DAMAGE TO THE TRANSFORMER WILL RESULT.
Electrical Precautions
• Do not install the control where it may not accurately sense the relative humidity such as near HVAC
supply registers, near exterior doors, on an outside wall, near a window, or near a water source.
• The screw terminals on the EDHUM070H and the control are labeled to prevent confusion.
• Be sure to consult the electrical schematic in the CONTROLS Section (page 12) of this manual or
inside the access panel of the EDHUM070H before making control connections.
WARNING!WARNING!
THE REMOTE CONTROLS OF THE EDHUM070H ARE POWERED BY A LOW VOLTAGE CIRCUIT
(24VAC) AND MUST NEVER CONTACT OR BE CONNECTED TO A HIGH VOLTAGE CIRCUIT.
CAUTION!CAUTION!
SOME OF THE SCREWS TERMINALS ON THE EDHUM070H MAY NOT BE USED WITH
CERTAIN CONTROLS AND SHOULD BE LEFT UNCONNECTED.
