Does anyone know the current inrush for this humidifier (in Amps(A))?

On the back it shows ... DC24/60HZ on one line and 13W on another line. It is written in Korean except for those numbers. I have my in a standard outlet.

In the USA, 120 volt AC is converted by the transformer on the wire that plugs into the outlet to 24 volt DC.

This humidistat is a mechanical switch. It's non-powered. So whatever you put it in series with it will turn on and shut off depending on the setting and ambient humidity. As humidity rises above the setpoint, at some point above the deadband the switch will open. When humidity falls below the setpoint, at some point the switch will close. The deadband is 5% of the ambient humidity. I have mine connected to an 120VAC circuit and it works fine. I do not know how many amps it can handle but the connections are 18AWG solid which can handle 14amps. I would not try to load it that high...maybe 10 amps tops. If you are wiring it in series with a solenoid it should be fine because solenoid current is usually in the milliamp range. So the answer is yes if the solenoid you are connecting it to turns on the humidifier. The wiring is also rated to 300VAC so provided you are using voltage under that you should also be fine.

I would contact Essick. Last year my humidifier didn't work but just groaned when I first started it. It was only the second year I'd had it. I called Essick and learned that the year before, the motors were defective in a group that had been sold. Because I had my receipt which I faxed to Essick, a new humidifier was sent to me a no charge. It worked well last season and is working well this season with new filters. I doubt that your problem is a filter issue. Good luck.

I would make sure the electrical outlet works - plug a light or something in it. If the unit won't even light up, it's defective/broken. If it's the condenser(?) motor that doesn't start, try reducing the desired humidity with the down arrow as low as it will go.

yes, A is for amps. Probably you have to replace the arrays if 0 continues after adding salt. If the problem continues, maybe the machine is broken.

Mine is 120vac, not sure the current, it can't be more than 2-3 amp, it turns off when inflated, and if you have it inNever flat mode, it turns on and off automatically.

Purchased mine in Oct. 2013, two weeks back it keeps tripping two separate 20amp GFI. I suspect some how the sealed unit is leaking water into it causing a short. My next one will have a warranty other than 30 days.

Mine is 120-130 VAC 60 HZ. Goodness, all the way from the Land Down Under to Memphis, TN USA? Wow. I have no idea what your standard electric power is in Australia. Oh, and one other thing, if it has a 120 to 240 switch on it somewhere, I don't know, but it is 0130HRS (1:30 AM) here right now, so I will have to wait and get back to you tomorrow. The thing is packed up in my shop out back. Later Jude.

My system is 14 years old so I replaced MB and transformer. Current limiter or K1 are usually the problem. I searched different sites and found great info for my salt system problems over the years.

I only have the main inverter so don't know. Not very happy with it. Only cools main area

I can't help, I don't have a pro care replacement humidifier. My replacement wicks don't have a plastic wick. Good luck.

Can you please tell me what is the voltage listed on the outlet or under the compressor.

I would suspect that yes, you need to replace your humidistat. I have an Aprilaire humidifier and my digital humidistat went bad. Since my humidifier was aging, I replaced it also. I went back to the "manual" humidistat since it's simple and no electronics to go bad. The only thing the digital humidistat buys you is an outdoor temperature sensor (thermocouple) that automatically adjusts the setting based on the outdoor temperature ...sounds good but not that big of a deal. I set my manual humidistat a couple times ...when I expect the temperature to routinely get below 20 deg and then when I expect it to be above 20 deg. Never had a problem with that. Good luck!

Quite frankly, I am not really smart enough about surge watts and the like. I use my capacitor for a 230 volt 4 ton air conditioning condenser. So, I do not know if that relates what your situation is.

As I have previouly stated, I had this unit professionly installed, however, I do know in my case, mine doesn't control my humidifier as I had a high end unit installed. The man gave me a detailed instruction and a users manual on the unit. The secret is ask around for a reliable, responsive professional. Gary

No. I brought mine out for the third season and the humidifier would not turn on.
