We recommend the BINDER Pure Aqua Service for longer maintenance intervals, regardless of water quality.

Demineralized or deionized water available at the customers location.

1) Lower values are valid up to an ambient temperature of max.  25 °C (77 °F)
2) up to 98 % of the set value
3) depending on the set-point
4) Use this value for dimensioning air condition systems

All technical data are specified for units with standard equipment at an ambient temperature of  25 °C and a voltage fluctuation of ±10 %. The temperature data are determinated in ccordance to factory standard following DIN 12880 respecting the recommended wall clearances of 10 % of the height,width and depth of the inner chamber. Technical data refers to 100 % fan speed. All indications are average values, typical for units produced in series. We reserve the right to alter technical specifications at all times.
