The use of demineralised water is also required to comply with standards UNI8883, VDI6022 and VDI3803. humiFog Direct must only operate on demineralised water that falls within the limits listed in the following table. Normally, these values can be obtained by reverse osmosis or nanofiltration of the feedwater.
3.2 Mounting single blower units on the wall / ceiling The humiFog Direct system works by connecting the cabinet to a number of blower units installed directly in the room to be humidified The single blower units (P/N DLA%F) are designed to be installed on a and/or cooled.
1 metre, so as to avoid excessive bending and vibrations. Finally, fit the two cable glands and complete the electrical wiring, as described in paragraph 3.4. Carel also provides an additional kit (including a special plate bent at 90°) for mounting single blower units on the ceiling. Fig. 3.g...
Also check that the cable is the right size for the distance and voltages used. Carel recommends an AWG14 or AWG12 cable, as shown in the technical data at the end of the manual. To connect power to the blower units, connect three suitably-sized wires (line + neutral + earth) from the terminals on the cabinet (shown in the figure) to the terminals on the blower (shown in the figure).
If connected to a humidity probe, humiFog Direct will display the relative humidity read by the probe. If connected to a temperature probe, on the other hand, humiFog Direct will display the temperature. Based on the probe reading and the deviation from the set point, humiFog Direct will modulate the humidification load according to the PWM principle (see paragraph 6.5).
As an alternative to the main probe, a signal from an external controller can be used. The latter processes the request to send to humiFog Direct via an analogue signal, which varies from 0 to 100%. humiFog will adjust the capacity delivered proportionally to the signal received, and the display will show the request sent as a percentage.
4.9 Production percentage analogue outputs The c.pHC controller provides an analogue output (0-10 V) corresponding to the percentage of production that humiFog Direct is delivering. The output replicates the request signal relating to the corresponding humiFog Direct zone. The production percentage analogue outputs are connected to the following terminals: •...

10.3 Pump maintenance Generally the oil level should remain constant and periodical top ups should not be needed. If oil leaks are found, contact CAREL. The pump is the most complex mechanical device inside the cabinet, as well as the heart of the high pressure system. It therefore requires specific regular maintenance, comprising at least three operations (described below).
To replace the gaskets, proceed as follows: After 1000 hours of operation, humiFog Direct shows a “1000 hour Disconnect the wiring from the high pressure switch, solenoid valve maintenance” warning, however without shutting down the unit. This warning reminds the user to check correct system operation.
