INTRODUCTION
Please read this instruction manual carefully before you use this dehumidifier.
The MDH-CD-140 is a Ceiling Ducted type refrigerant dehumidifier designed for installation
and use where the distribution of air by ceiling sweep and peripheral air pattern is required
and preferred. The MDH-CD-140 is also installed together with HVAC systems such as a
FCU ducted air conditioners and direct Fresh Air ventilation systems.
The MDH-CD-140 removes water vapor from the air aggressively, which in turn elevates the
drying of materials by movement of air thereby inducing evaporation of moisture from
molecules to water vapor.
In warehouses or factories where machineries, products or high racking hinder the effective
airflow distribution of floor standing dehumidifiers, ceiling mounted dehumidifiers overcome
this issue. When installed as part of the fresh air ventilation into the building, the MDH-CD-
100 removes moisture from outside-air more efficiently and effectively than air conditioners
and at a lower electrical cost.
Relative Humidity is a measure of how much moisture is in the air. It is the ratio that
indicates the ability of the air to absorb more moisture, expressed in percentage (%RH). For
more information, see also specific/ absolute humidity.
The lower the percentage in RH, the lower the moisture contents in the air and the greater the
air's ability to absorb more moisture. When the air reaches 100% RH, it reaches its saturation
point and the water vapor turns to liquid, forming droplets of condensation

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. When using electrical appliances always apply basic safety precautions to reduce the
risk of electrical shock, fire or injury to persons.
4. Always switch off at the main power socket when not in use and before unplugging.
Always unplug the unit before cleaning and inspect connections for damages.
5. Do not spray water on the dehumidifier. Keep all electrical components in dry
condition. If electrical components are wet, ensure unit is inspected by a qualified
electrician before operating.
6. Always store the unit upright in order to maintain the compressor in proper working
condition. Leave the unit upright for at least 30 minutes before operating.
7. Remove filter and clean with vacuum cleaner or wash with mild detergent. Do NOT
wash with hot water or in washing machine or dish washer. Do NOT dry under direct
sunlight.
10. The unit is fitted with an auto defrosting operation and starts when the evaporator
generates frost. The function ensures continuous running when the temperature is
between 5˚C and 35˚C. The moisture removal rate may vary depending on
temperature and moisture load in the airstream.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. While every unit of DEWOODS Dehumidifier has been tested in factory and Pre-
Delivery Tested again by AAQ, transportation and handling may result in various level of
damages. It is imperative that Installer/ Owner inspect the packaging and unit body prior
to installation. Report all damages if goods is received not in its original condition.
2. The dehumidifier should be installed with consideration for service and maintenance.
Sufficient space should be allowed for servicemen/ technicians to access with safety
considerations.
3. The dehumidifier should not be installed in an area where the temperature is lower than
the process air’s dew point to prevent condensation.
4. It is recommended that all duct connections meet ISO7807 guidelines to ensure maximum
airflow volume and to reduce loss of static pressure.
5. Ducting should be insulated to prevent internal condensation and to reduce any vibration
and sound.
6. Condensate drain pipe (U-trap) with sufficient head should be fitted to prevent leakages.
A secondary drain pan should be placed under the dehumidifier for safety reasons.
7. When installed together with an Air Conditioning system (FCU), duct the Process/ Dry
Air to the Supply Air Duct. Use together with a non-return air damper.
8. Return air should be independent of air conditioning unit’s return air duct but if diverting
from main return duct, consider the air conditioner’s fan pressure which could upset the
flow rate.
9. Check to ensure there is no debris or any loose components inside the compartment that
may damage the fan motor.

CONTROL/ DISPLAY PANEL
2. Press “ON/OFF” button to start and to shut down the dehumidifier. The screen lights up
when any key is depressed and back light is off after 3 minutes. Controller will display
current room temperature and humidity level. % RH.
3. The Startup Delay protects the dehumidifier by initiating 3 minutes delay upon startup.
4. The Shutdown Delay protects the dehumidifier by continued running of the fan for 1-3
minutes after the dehumidifier is cut off or turned off.
5. The SPEED/ Fan Selection function allows user to set High or Low speed fan.
6. Press the MODE/ TIME function to switch between Dehumidification and Ventilation.
Press and HOLD for 5 secs to enter clock setting mode – Clock value setting, Timer-ON
setting and Timer-OFF setting.
7. Press the (UP)▲ or (DOWN)▼ button to set the desired humidity value, Clock setting,
Timer ON and Timer OFF setting. The dehumidifier will start to operate if the room
humidity sensor detects humidity level is 5% RH higher than set value.
7
9. (MEMORY FUNCTION) When the system is powered back after a power failure, the
system recognizes the last operating setting and operates accordingly.
10. This dehumidifier is fitted with a MCB circuit protection and REQUIRES RESET.
Always ENSURE proper wiring by qualified technician/ electrician.
11. The High Temperature cut off function prevents the compressor from running
continuously when it senses high temperature
12. The Low Pressure function protects the compressor against running when there is a
refrigerant leak.
13. Automatic DEFROST mode – When the room temperature is lower than 15*C or the
evaporator coil temperature falls below 2*C for more than 10 minutes, the unit will
automatically Defrost. In this mode, the compressor will not operate but the fan will
continue running at high speed. The “DEFROST” indicator will stay lit during this time.

MAINTENANCE
Important –
1. DO NOT switch the power OFF by disconnecting at electrical socket outlet
immediately after using the dehumidifier.
2. DO NOT move the dehumidifier for at least three minutes after turning the power
OFF (to avoid water spillage)
3. Inspect and clear water or dirt from the drain pipe and drain pan.
4. Ensure power plug is disconnected and unplug from electrical socket.
5. Do NOT use petrol, thinner or strong chemical cleaners to clean unit.
6. Do NOT wash the dehumidifier directly under a tap or hose. This is unsafe and
electrical components may be damaged.
1. Use a mild detergent and water solution to clean exterior parts if necessary. Wipe dry
after cleaning.
2. Remove the filter gently by sliding out from the side.
3. Vacuum or wash any accumulated dust, dirt or debris. REPLACE if necessary.
4. Use mild detergent to gently wash filter and allow drying before fitting again. Do NOT
sun dry or use heat source to dry filter.
5. Replace filter if damaged to prevent dust from accumulating on coils. This causes
inefficiency and may overheat resulting in the unit shutting down.
6. The filter should be cleaned at least once a month or more frequently if used in dusty
conditions.
7. Inspect coils for visible dirt accumulated. Do NOT attempt to clean internal sections of
dehumidifiers unless technician is trained.
8. Contact AAQ Service Department Hotline 603 – 4295 3295 or enquiry@aaq.com.my
for technical assistance.
