The Santa Fe Ultra120V plugs into a common grounded 115 VAC outlet. The device draws 5.8 Amps at 80°F and
60% RH. Locate the dehumidifier 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 further information.
Santa Fe offers a variety of control devices for use with the Santa Fe Ultra120V. The control is to be located
remotely from the dehumidifier and placed in the space to be conditioned. A low voltage (24 Volt) control MUST be
used with the Santa Fe Ultra120V and MUST be connected with low voltage (18-22 gauge) thermostat wire.
WARNING!
THE REMOTE CONTROLS OF THE SANTA FE ULTRA120V ARE POWERED BY A LOW VOLTAGE CIRCUIT (24VAC)
AND MUST NEVER CONTACT OR BE CONNECTED TO A HIGH VOLTAGE CIRCUIT.
CAUTION!
DO NOT ALLOW THE 24V TERMINAL TO CONTACT THE COM/DMPR TERMINALS ON THE
SANTA FE ULTRA120V OR DAMAGE TO THE TRANSFORMER WILL RESULT.
CAUTION!
SOME OF THE SCREWS TERMINALS ON THE SANTA FE ULTRA120V MAY NOT BE USED WITH
CERTAIN CONTROLS AND SHOULD BE LEFT UNCONNECTED.
1. 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 Santa Fe Ultra120V 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 Santa Fe Ultra120V before making control connections.
