Condensate treatment
CAUTION
Danger of slipping on spilled condensate
Danger of slipping on condensate spilling onto the floor from the condensate drain hose.
•
Collect condensate from the condensate drain hose.
ATTENTION
Damage to the switch cabinet components by formation of condensate
Switch cabinet interior temperatures below the dew point of the ambient air or damaged switch cabinet seals can lead to
excessive condensate formation.
•
Check the switch cabinet seals regularly to avoid excessive formation of condensate due to penetrating ambient air.
•
Install a door contact switch to reduce formation of condensate when the switch cabinet is open.

Cooling unit
Condensate can form when the evaporator cools down. The condensate is drained to avoid damage to the switch cabinet and
the cooling units. The integrated condensate evaporator discharges the condensate into the ambient air.
For safety reasons, the condensate evaporator has a drain nozzle with drain hose (2) through which the excess condensate is
discharged from the unit.
The condensate emerging from the drain hose (2) can be collected in the condensate collection bottle available as an accessory
(see "Spare parts and accessories", Page 65).
