Description The miniClima EBC can only be used for climate control in museum display cabinets, showcases and containers that are classified as air and steam tight. At about the same size as a large shoe box, the combined dehumidifier and humidifier unit is easily hidden from view in a separate compartment within the display showcase. The museum showcase or cabinet is connected to the miniClima EBC using two flexible hoses, forming an airtight recirculation system. Air is extracted from the case into the EBC where it is conditioned before being fed back into the cabinet. By default the whole process takes place without mixing system air with ambient air. The sensor monitors both temperature and relative humidity and is mounted discreetly inside the display case. Once set in operation, the EBC continuously monitors the condition inside the showcase. If the measured RH value deviates from the required value (set point), the appropriate action is immediately initiated ie: dehumidification by condensing or humidification by evaporation. Condensate from the dehumidification process is added to the unit's integral 500 ml water bottle which also provides the reservoir for the humidification process. The modes of operation "humidification" and "dehumidification" are indicated on the control panel visual display. Should the set value not be reached within a pre-set time, an alarm is activated. In addition to the integral alarm display on the panel, external remote alarm signalling is available using the potential free contact, thus providing the user with the possibility to install external alarming notification. The reset button quits the external alarm. There are currently two size EBC’s available (master units):- Model EBC 10 - for sealed cabinets not exceeding 3m³ Model EBC 11 - for sealed cabinets not exceeding 5m³   If the volume of a cabinet exceeds the capacity of a single unit (master), further units (slaves) can be added to the system to increase the performance up to the level required. A slave unit is controlled by it's associated master unit. Each device is delivered ready to install, complete with all necessary hoses, hose connections, cables and a detailed installation and operation manual (electronic format). Datalogger The miniClima data logger is now an integral part of the control system. Our new computer software program ‘miniClima EBC tool’ is supplied free of charge with each order and allows up to 15,000 values to be stored and accessed. Users can check for alarm events or changes to the control settings, as well as live monitoring of measured values. © Copyright 2009 Humidity Control Systems Ltd        Tel: 0044 (1) 522 753722 Description pdf
