Dehumidifier – MJ-EV38HR-A

If you pour cold water into a cup, the air around it becomes cold, causing water droplets to form on the surface of the cup. The dehumidifier takes advantage of this phenomenon to remove moisture from the air.

The dehumidifier draws air from the room, and the cooling coil then cools the air, turning it into water droplets that fall into the water tank. Next, the re-heating coil heats the dehumidified air, which is blown out of the top of the unit as clean, dry air.

The amount of dehumidification you need depends on conditions in the room, such as a musty odour, damp spots, water beading or drying clothes. The damper the room, the higher the Moisture Removal Capacity (measured in litres removed per day) you will need.

The Mitsubishi Electric EV38HR Dehumidifier has a large Moisture Removal Capacity of up to 38 litres per day*.

*Room Temperature 30°C / Relative Humidity 80%

The dehumidification process reduces the humidity by condensing and removing moisture content from a room. A portable dehumidifier will warm the room and reduces relative humidity indirectly.

The size of a dehumidifier is rated by Moisture Removal Capacity and should be measured in litres of moisture removed in a 24 hour period. The more damp or humid a room is the higher the Moisture Removal Capacity you need. 

How long you need to run a dehumidifier depends on how much moisture is in the air. The Mitsubishi Electric EV38HR Dehumidifier can be set to the desired humidity level of 50 to 70%, and automatically turns off/on to maintain that humidity level.

High humidity in the home can cause a musty smell, and trigger allergies and asthma from spores that mould produces. We look at the six reasons why you may need a dehumidifier in your home.

If your air conditioner can dehumidify your home, do you need both? Dehumidifiers can have many benefits around the home, especially if you live in areas of high humidity or, like much of Australia currently, high rainfall is causing moisture build-up within the home. But if you own an air conditioner, that can be as effective at dehumidification of a room as a dehumidifier. Why would you need a dehumidifier? We have asked the Mitsubishi Electric Technical Team for their advice.

It doesn’t matter where you live; high moisture levels in the form of humidity or condensation can be a problem in many homes. When moisture builds up in wardrobes, laundries or within your walls, it can cause annoying smells, damage your belongings, and even affect your health.

Read our tips on the five most important features to dehumidify your home.

The Mitsubishi Electric EV38HR Dehumidifier is designed to maintain a comfortable level of humidity in your home by removing excess moisture from the air. Some specific features of this Dehumidifier include the energy-efficient Inverter compressor which constantly adjusts the power and running speed according to the humidity level in the air; the Intelligent Laundry mode which estimates the laundry drying time and stops automatically; and the Air Purification mode.

The Mitsubishi Electric EV38HR Dehumidifier has a large Moisture Removal Capacity of up to 38 litres per day*.

*Room Temperature 30°C / Relative Humidity 80%

The Mitsubishi Electric EV38HR Dehumidifier has a Pre-Filter and two-layer PM2.5 Filter that helps to remove common fine particles and dust in the air.

The PM2.5 Filter has a two-layer structure consisting of a White Dust Filter and Blue Deodorising Filter. The fine mesh Filter can catch PM2.5 small particles and dust. The fibres contain a special deodorant and anti-bacterial agent.

1. The unit draws air from the room, cools it with its cooling coil, causing the moisture in the air to transform into water droplets.
2. The water droplets fall into the water tank.
3. Dehumidified air is heated by the re-heating coil and then blown out.

The humidity in the room is reduced by repeating the above steps.

The Mitsubishi Electric EV38HR Dehumidifier has a Comprehensive Control Panel.

1. Inverter light indicates the operation level of the selected operation mode
2. The inside of the unit can be dried to suppress mildew growth on the cooler by using the Drying Inside mode
3. Easy to read, backlit LCD display
4. Light indicator shows when water tank is full
5. Pre-Filter and two-layer PM2.5 filter remove common fine particles and dust from the air
6. Timer on/off with an hourly selection from 1 to 12 hours
7. Select the direction of airflow; upward, to the rear or wide angle
8. Set the desired humidity level between 50 to 70%, automatically turns off/on
9. Monitors room temperature, selecting the optimal humidity level
10. Intelligent laundry mode controls the airflow rate while monitoring the humidity in the room, estimates the laundry drying time and stops automatically. Operation time is approximately 1 hour and can be up to 12 hours.

The Drying Inside operation is recommended after each use of the unit (approx. 1 hour). When continuous operation is being performed by continuous drainage, the Drying Inside operation should be used after every two weeks.
