Drainage Plug Insertion

Warning: The unit's built-in re-evaporator will not function until you insert the drainage plug into the drainage outlet.
When the unit cools or dehumidifies, condensation forms. The unit has a built-in re-evaporator that allows it to expel condensation through the
warm air exhaust stream. This feature allows the unit to operate indefinitely without requiring you to empty a water collection tank. The unit ships
with both the upper and lower drainage plugs pre-installed.
Cooling Mode with Re-Evaporation
6-1
This is the default mode of operation.
Note: Both drainage plugs must remain installed to enable re-evaporation of
condensation.
Cooling Mode without Re-Evaporation
6-2
Use this mode in high humidity environments when the unit's capacity to evaporate
condensation exceeds the amount of condensation produced. Also use this mode during
shut downs when the "Water (Tank) Full" error frequently occurs (see Troubleshooting
section for more information on error codes).

Remove the rear panel by lifting it up by its sides to disengage from the unit, then
pulling away to detach. Remove the top and bottom drainage plugs.

Dehumidify Mode
6-3
Use this mode in environments where the air temperature is already cold
(68° F / 20° C or less).

Note: If the drainage system becomes clogged, a small internal reservoir will collect
condensation. If the drainage system is not cleared before the internal reservoir fills, the unit
will shut down automatically.
Warning: Before connecting the unit to a dedicated drainage system, turn it off
and unplug it. There is a risk of electric shock while the unit is plugged in.
Note: If your building's cooling system has night or weekend thermostat setbacks, has periodic
shutdowns, or has limited cooling capacity, you may need to consider alternatives to the
standard installation. This product is meant to be used as a supplemental cooling device, and
cannot make up for significant fluctuations in building temperature or humidity.
Low Temperature Operation
The SRCOOL18K/SRCOOL24K is a high performance cooler capable of producing very cold air output. When using the SRCOOL18K/SRCOOL24K
in environments that are already cold (68° F / 20° C or less), Tripp Lite recommends using the Dehumidify Mode only. This will allow the unit to
continue to provide supplemental cooling while preventing any evaporator icing issues caused by the low room temperature.
