Where Can the SeccoProf 40P Be Used?

The SeccoProf 40P is particularly suited to applications where a standard household dehumidifier may not provide the durability, airflow or moisture-removal performance required.

• Commercial offices and work areas
• Storerooms and equipment storage areas
• Archives, libraries, museums and galleries
• Recording studios and electronics storage
• Laboratories and technical rooms
• Workshops and garages
• Laundry and drying rooms
• Carpet and building drying
• Minor flood and water-damage restoration
• Storage containers
• Community buildings
• Larger open-plan residential areas

Recording studios and equipment rooms can be particularly vulnerable to high humidity and condensation. Mixing consoles, computers, electronics and other valuable equipment may be affected by prolonged exposure to damp conditions. Maintaining appropriate relative humidity can help protect equipment and the surrounding building.

Professional Design & Easy Portability

The SeccoProf 40P combines European design with a robust professional construction. Castors allow the dehumidifier to be moved between areas as required, while standard 240V operation means there is no complicated installation – simply position the unit correctly, allow adequate airflow and connect to power.

Commercial Dehumidifier or Domestic Dehumidifier?

If you are comparing the SeccoProf 40P with a smaller household dehumidifier, it is important to look beyond the advertised litres-per-day figure.

Commercial humidity-control applications can involve longer operating hours, larger air volumes, cooler conditions and higher ongoing moisture loads. The SeccoProf 40P offers a robust housing, high airflow, continuous drainage capability, portability and low-temperature defrost for more demanding applications.

For applications involving major flood restoration, very large warehouses, indoor swimming pools and spas, continuous industrial processes or very low target humidity, a larger LGR, wall-mounted, ducted or desiccant dehumidifier may be more appropriate.

How Much Moisture Will a 40L/Day Dehumidifier Actually Remove?

A dehumidifier rated at 40 litres per day does not necessarily remove 40 litres every day. Published extraction capacity is measured under specified temperature and relative-humidity conditions.

As the room becomes cooler or drier, the amount of water available in the air decreases and the extraction rate of a refrigerant dehumidifier will also decrease. This is normal operation.

The guide below demonstrates how temperature and relative humidity can affect moisture extraction from a refrigerant dehumidifier.

Please note: The chart above is provided as a general guide to demonstrate how refrigerant dehumidifier extraction rates change as temperature and relative humidity decrease. It should not be interpreted as a certified SeccoProf 40P performance curve unless specifically identified as such by the manufacturer.

Not Sure What Size Dehumidifier You Need?

Choosing a dehumidifier by litres-per-day alone can result in an undersized system.

The correct dehumidifier capacity depends on factors including:

• Room dimensions and total air volume
• Room temperature
• Existing relative humidity
• Required target relative humidity
• Outside-air infiltration and ventilation
• Door openings and building construction
• Moisture source and ongoing moisture load
• How many hours per day the equipment will operate

Continuous Drainage – Avoid Emptying the Tank

For longer-term humidity control, the SeccoProf 40P can be connected to continuous drainage. This allows collected condensate water to drain away without regularly emptying the internal tank.

A 3 metre drain hose accessory kit is available and can be particularly useful for unattended applications, storage areas, holiday properties and other locations where regular tank emptying is inconvenient.

Useful Accessories for Your Dehumidifier

Drain Kit – For Continuous Drainage

Continuous drainage can save the need to regularly empty the condensate tank. Our optional 3 metre hose accessory kit allows collected water to drain away where a suitable drainage point is available.

Surge Protector – Additional Electrical Protection

Electrical equipment can be damaged by power surges associated with storms, blackouts and supply faults. A suitable surge protector can provide an additional level of protection for your dehumidifier.

Always refer to the surge-protector manufacturer’s conditions and warranty requirements. Dehumidifier warranties generally do not cover damage resulting from external power faults or surges.

Temperature & Humidity Meter – Know Your RH

A separate temperature and humidity meter makes it easy to monitor conditions in different areas without moving the dehumidifier.

Monitoring relative humidity is particularly useful for identifying moisture problems, checking how effectively the dehumidifier is controlling the space and determining whether humidity is increasing again when the unit is switched off.

G3 Pre-Filters – Help Protect Your Dehumidifier

Optional G3 pre-filters can help capture dust and larger airborne particles before they reach the dehumidifier’s main filter and cooling coils. Keeping coils and filters cleaner can assist with maintaining airflow and efficient long-term operation, particularly in dusty commercial environments.

Accessories can be selected when ordering the dehumidifier where available from the product options above.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much water can the SeccoProf 40P remove?

The SeccoProf 40P is rated to remove up to 40 litres of moisture per day at 30°C and 80% relative humidity. Actual extraction varies according to temperature and humidity and will decrease as conditions become cooler or drier.

Can the SeccoProf 40P run continuously?

Yes. Continuous dehumidification modes and a continuous drainage connection make the SeccoProf 40P suitable for longer-term humidity-control applications where regularly emptying the condensate tank may be inconvenient.

Can it operate at low temperatures?

The SeccoProf 40P incorporates a warm-gas defrost system and is designed to operate at temperatures down to approximately 2°C. However, moisture extraction from refrigerant dehumidifiers reduces considerably as temperature and absolute moisture content fall. Very cold applications or applications requiring very low relative humidity may be better suited to a desiccant dehumidifier.

What relative humidity should I set?

For general mould and condensation prevention, approximately 50–60% RH is commonly suitable. Archives, museums, storage facilities, laboratories and other specialist environments may require a more specific target depending on the materials, equipment or products being protected.

Is the SeccoProf 40P suitable for carpet or flood drying?

The SeccoProf 40P can assist with carpet drying, building drying and minor water-damage restoration. Professional restoration contractors dealing with substantial water ingress may benefit from a higher-performance LGR dehumidifier, particularly models with an integrated condensate pump.

Can I use the SeccoProf 40P in a warehouse or storeroom?

Potentially, yes. However, warehouse and storage-area sizing depends heavily on the total building volume, temperature, air leakage, door openings, ventilation and ongoing moisture load. Contact Damp Solutions Australia for assistance before selecting a unit for a large commercial space.

Is the SeccoProf 40P suitable for an indoor swimming pool or spa?

Indoor pool and spa dehumidification should be sized according to water surface area, water temperature, room temperature, target humidity, ventilation, building construction and whether a pool cover is used. We recommend contacting Damp Solutions Australia before selecting a portable dehumidifier for an indoor pool or spa.

Does a dehumidifier help prevent mould?

A dehumidifier can help reduce the elevated relative humidity and condensation conditions that encourage mould growth. Existing mould should still be appropriately treated and the underlying cause of excessive moisture, leaks or water ingress should also be investigated.
