Is it safe to keep the dehumidifier working for a long time

First of all, we need to understand that the working principle of the dehumidifier is to use the refrigerant in the compressor to exchange heat with the air.Assuming that the operating environment is under high humidity for a long time and the machine does not stop at all, in this state the dehumidifier is most likely to have heat problems.And worst of all is the heat problem, overheating can burn out the compressor and motor.Now high-quality compressors are equipped with thermal cutoff switches, which can achieve the effect of overheating protection.The principle is to use bimetallic strips to detect the temperature. When the temperature is too high, the bimetal temperature switch will cut off the circuit until the internal temperature returns to normal, and then power on again.Therefore, it is necessary to check whether the ambient temperature is too high when we encounter a sudden power failure of the dehumidifier.

The working environment of the dehumidifier has certain requirements on the temperature. The operating range of conventional dehumidifiers at ambient temperature is 5-40°C. When the working environment temperature is higher than 40℃, the machine will automatically stop and protect itself. So you can wait for the machine to automatically recover when it stops.Bimetal temperature switch for dehumidifiers:KSD301 thermostat;HCET-A thermal switch;HCET-B thermal motor protector.

There is no problem with the dehumidifier working for dozens of hours, but it is not recommended. Continuous operation for a long time will cause the inside of the dehumidifier to be high temperature for a long time, and the service life of the motor and compressor will decrease. If the dehumidifier itself is relatively old, or the room temperature is relatively high,there will still be some security risks.
