Quest 506 277V

High Capacity Series

@ 80 F | 60% RH

  • Capacity 506 Pints/Day
  • Efficiency 8.1 Pints/kWh
  • Supply Voltage 277V
  • Current Draw 10 Amps

Overview

Powerful and efficient, the Quest 506 277V dehumidifier is a high-capacity, high-efficiency unit which features out patented technology.

M-CoRR Technology
The Quest 506 277V boasts our unique patented M-CoRR technology. This multi-coil refrigeration design recycles excess heat to provide the highest efficiencies available on the market, while reducing heat (BTUs) output into your space.

Just like our original 506 230V units, the 506 pint capacity makes it one of the most powerful commercial dehumidifiers on the market.

The 277V voltage provides low amp draw, freeing up electricity for other equipment. Best of all these units can be installed on 277V without the additional installation of buck-boost transformers and the associated costs of wiring.

The Quest 506 277V dehumidifier is engineered and assembled in Madison, Wisconsin. It’s backed by a 5-year warranty. In addition, this unit meets California Title 24 requirements for both ducted (whole-home) and non-ducted (portable) installations.
