  • Page 8: Safety Notes

    2. Safety Notes 2.1 Overview These safety notes are required by law. They promote work- place safety and accident prevention. Warnings and Safety Symbols The safety symbols below identify sections containing warnings about hazards or potential dangers. Please familiarize yourself with these symbols.
  • Page 9: Disposal After Dismantling

    HygroMatik steam humidifiers are IP20-protected. Make sure that the unit is protected from drips in its installed location. Installing a humidifier in a room without water discharge requires safety devices to protect against water leakages. Accident Prevention Regulations Comply with the Accident Prevention Regulation Electrical Sys- tems and Equipment to prevent injury to yourself and others.

  • Page 11: Operation And Installation

    4. Operation and Installation 4.1 Mode of Operation The HygroMatik steam humidifier utilizes the conductivity nor- mally present in tap water for steam production. Electrodes inside an enclosed steam cylinder are immersed directly into the tap water. They are connected to the alternating current.

  • Page 13 The concentration of dissolved salts increases over time, which can lead to a rise in the conductivity of the water. If this contin- ues, conductivity may increase until a short circuit occurs. This could damage the unit, but in any case would significantly reduce the life span of the electrodes.
  • Page 14: Installation

    The minimum clearances indicated in the diagram below must be observed; these are necessary to ensure adequate ventilation for the housing. • HygroMatik humidifiers are not suitable for direct out- door installation. • The steam humidifier should be installed as close as possible to the steam manifold.
  • Page 15: Fitting

    5.1.1 Fitting Wall Mounting Note: To function properly the steam humidifier must be installed verti- cally. » Position the steam humidifier in the planned location, adjust with spirit level and mark position of hanging bolts. » Hang the unit onto bolts screwed into the marked posi- tion and tighten.

  • Page 18: Absorption Distance Bn

    5.3 Absorption Distance B The "absorption distance" (B ) is defined as the distance from the steam feed to where the steam is completely absorbed in the treated air. Inside the absorption distance, steam is visible as mist in the air stream. Condensation may collect on anything installed inside the absorption distance.
  • Page 19 Length I of the usable steam manifold depends on the dimen- sions of the air duct. The length of the absorption distance can be reduced by using multiple steam manifolds (also see section on the steam manifold). Method: Graphically determine absorption distance B using the absorp- tion distance nomogram (also see Section „Absorption Distance Nomogramm“).

  • Page 23 With high-pressure air-conditioning systems, the unit's drain hose system must be modified depending on the over pressure. When this is the case please consult HygroMatik. • Install the steam manifold as close as possible to the steam humidifier in order to minimize steam loss through condensation.

    5.10 Steam Solenoid Valves When humidifying a number of loads, which are to be controlled separately, using a single steam humidifier, steam solenoid valves can be included in the steam hoses. Valve control has to provided by the customer. • Install the vertical risers with flow from bottom to top.
  • Page 33: Water Installation

    For water installation please use the water connecting hose that is delivered with the unit. 6.1 Operation with Softened Water Warning: Unless special measures are taken, feeding softened water into the HygroMatik steam humidifier is dangerous. It can cause • unacceptably high conductivity •...
  • Page 34: Water Supply

    Note: Please contact HygroMatik if you wish to operate the unit with softened water. If using a water softening system, we recommend diluting the softened water with normal tap water to produce an overall hard- ness between 4-8°dH. This value can be set lower if the water does not foam.
  • Page 35: Water Discharge

    » Use a cap nut (internal thread ¾“) with inner seal for a customer-provided water installation. 6.3 Water discharge min.: 250mm max.: 1000mm Warning: During blow down hot water with a temperature of about 95°C is being drained. If touched this can cause burns to the skin.
  • Page 36: Water Installation Check

    There is a 3mm-wide crack between the pump drain hose jacket and the inner surface of the housing drain connection. If water collects in the base plate, it will flow through this crack into the drainage system. 6.4 Water Installation Check Go down the following water installation checklist: ...

Warning: A max-hygrostat should be installed in the safety inter- lock. The max-hygrostat acts as a safety device in case the humidity sensor malfunctions.
  • Page 41: Maintenance

    8. Maintenance The HygroMatik steam humidifier is easy to maintain. However, inadequate or improper maintenance can lead to operational malfunctions. Perform regular maintenance to give your unit a long life span. Warning: When performing maintenance work, please note: • During operation and also for a while after switching off the unit the steam cylinder is hot.
  • Page 42: Maintenance Work

    In extreme cases, water pretreatment may be necessary (soft- ening by dilution to approx. 4 - 8 °dH; decarbonization/partial desalination to achieve target reductions in carbonate hard- ness). HygroMatik would be pleased to refer you to companies specializing in water treatment systems. Page 42...
