FAQs

What size facility can the CAN-500 Crusader effectively dehumidify? +

The CAN-500 Crusader is designed for large industrial and commercial applications. With its 500-pint daily capacity and powerful 1600 CFM airflow, it can effectively handle spaces ranging from 6,000 to 10,000+ square feet, depending on your humidity load, temperature conditions, and ventilation. It's ideal for large-scale cultivation facilities, warehouses, manufacturing plants, and other demanding environments. For smaller spaces that still require professional-grade performance, consider the Cannadri Model CAN-250.

How does the CAN-500 compare to running multiple smaller dehumidifiers? +

The CAN-500 offers significant advantages over multiple smaller units: lower total energy consumption per pint removed, fewer maintenance points, reduced installation complexity, and centralized control. With its exceptional 7.8 pints/kWh efficiency, you'll see substantial savings on electricity costs compared to running several less-efficient units. Plus, the 360° serviceability means one technician can maintain the entire system quickly.

Can I integrate the CAN-500 with my facility's automation system? +

Absolutely. The CAN-500 features quick-connection compatibility with third-party environmental controllers including Trolmaster, allowing seamless integration into your facility's automation infrastructure. The external control interface enables remote monitoring, automated setpoint adjustments, and integration with other HVAC equipment for comprehensive climate management.

What electrical service does the CAN-500 require? +

The CAN-500 operates on 220V single-phase power at 60Hz and draws 12.1 amps. You'll need a dedicated 30-amp breaker circuit for safe operation. This is standard industrial electrical service available in most commercial facilities. Consult with a licensed electrician to ensure your facility has the appropriate electrical infrastructure before installation.

How much heat does the CAN-500 add to the space? +

The CAN-500 outputs approximately 11,800 BTU of heat during operation. This is a byproduct of the dehumidification process and should be factored into your HVAC calculations. In cooler months, this heat can be beneficial, but in warmer climates or during peak growing seasons, you'll need adequate cooling capacity to offset this heat output and maintain optimal temperatures.

Is the CAN-500 suitable for corrosive environments? +

Yes, the CAN-500 features corrosion-resistant construction specifically designed to withstand harsh industrial environments including chemical exposure, high humidity, and salt air. This makes it ideal for cultivation facilities using sulfur burners, coastal warehouses, industrial manufacturing plants, and other demanding applications where standard equipment would deteriorate quickly.

How loud is the CAN-500 during operation? +

Despite its industrial capacity, the CAN-500 operates at approximately 65 decibels—about the noise level of a normal conversation or office environment. This is remarkably quiet for an industrial dehumidifier moving 1600 CFM of air. The sound level makes it suitable for facilities where workers are present during operation without requiring hearing protection.

What warranty coverage comes with the CAN-500 Crusader? +

Cannadri backs the CAN-500 with a comprehensive 5-year limited warranty, reflecting their confidence in this industrial unit's durability and performance. This extended warranty coverage provides peace of mind for your significant investment. Note that the warranty does not cover damage from operator error or abuse, so proper installation by qualified technicians and following maintenance schedules is essential.
