Quest 506 208/230V High Capacity Dehumidifier

Struggling to control excessive humidity in your large-scale operation? High moisture levels can drive up energy costs and compromise your environment, putting your valuable crops at risk. The Quest 506 208/230V is engineered to solve this problem, delivering unparalleled dehumidification for commercial and industrial applications.

This powerhouse removes 500 pints of water per day while achieving an exceptional 9.2 pints per kilowatt-hour efficiency rating, setting a new industry standard. At the heart of its performance is the patented M-CoRR multi-coil refrigeration technology, which recycles excess heat to maximize efficiency and reduce the heat load in your space. Operating at a low 9.9 amps at 230V, it offers more capacity per amp than competitors, freeing up vital electrical capacity for other equipment. It's a key component in the high-performance lineup of Quest dehumidifiers, designed for serious growers.

Built for resilience, the Quest 506 functions flawlessly across the industry's widest temperature range (56°F to 95°F), ensuring consistent performance year-round. The onboard digital controls, compatible with the Quest DEH 3000R Climate Controller, provide precise humidity management, self-diagnostics, and filter change alerts. Engineered and assembled in Madison, Wisconsin, this unit features superior MERV 13 filtration and meets California Title 24 compliance standards, making it a reliable and forward-thinking investment for any large-scale grow facility.

FAQs

How do I choose the right size dehumidifier for my space?+

Choosing the correct size is crucial for effective humidity control. The Quest 506 is ideal for large commercial spaces. To determine the best fit for your specific needs, you should consider room volume, plant count, and irrigation frequency. For a detailed walkthrough, read our guide on choosing a dehumidifier for your grow room.

Is this the right model for my operation? What are the other options?+

The Quest 506 is designed for large-scale applications needing high-capacity moisture removal. If your space is smaller, the Quest 335 might be a more suitable and efficient option. For even larger industrial needs, we recommend the Quest 876. Evaluating your specific pint-per-day requirement is key to selecting the most cost-effective unit.

How does M-CoRR technology improve efficiency?+

The patented M-CoRR (Multi-Coil Refrigeration Recovery) technology uses multiple coils to recycle excess heat that is normally wasted. This recovered heat pre-warms the incoming air, reducing the energy needed for the dehumidification process while simultaneously lowering heat output into your space by up to 30% compared to traditional designs.

What daily maintenance does the Quest 506 require?+

Daily maintenance is minimal. The onboard digital controls provide filter change notifications, and the MERV 13 filter typically requires replacement every 3-6 months. The unit also features auto-restart and self-diagnostics to minimize manual intervention. Ensure the P-trap is clear for continuous condensate drainage.

How do I use the remote control capability for overhead installations?+

The Quest 506 features a low-voltage terminal block that allows you to connect it to external controllers, such as the Quest DEH 3000R. This lets you adjust settings and monitor performance from a convenient, ground-level location when the unit is mounted overhead.

What are the benefits of the R454B refrigerant?+

R454B refrigerant has a 78% lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) compared to the common R410A, significantly reducing your operation's environmental impact. It maintains the same high performance while meeting stringent environmental standards, future-proofing your facility against new regulations.

What is covered under the 5-year warranty?+

The 5-year limited warranty covers manufacturing defects and component failures under normal operating conditions. This includes the compressor, coils, and control systems. The warranty requires proper installation and maintenance as outlined in the user manual. Consumable items like filters are not covered.
