ƒ Only use the hoses supplied with the unit, and cut them to size if necessary to facilitate installation (max. 4 m long)
ƒ Secure the ends of the hose to the standalone unit and the diffusion rails using metal clamps.
ƒ It is recommended to strictly adhere to the following rules:
- Avoid excessively tight curves in the pipes to prevent kinks or bottlenecks.
- If the manifold is higher than the humidifier, ensure a uniform slope of at least 20% towards the humidifier to transfer the
recondensed steam to the cylinder.
- If the difference between the two heights is not sufficient to achieve this, or if the manifold is lower than the steam cylinder
connector, fit the pipe high enough to be able to route it back down to the manifold, keeping the uniform slope at 5% or
more.
- Do not create pockets where steam can accumulate between the steam cylinder and the manifold.
- Make sure the slope is as indicated.
- The condensation flow pipe should enable the creation of a siphon to prevent the return of condensate.
- The condensation pipe, one end of which is connected to the steam manifold, should transfer the condensed steam to the
base pan, provided this is lower than the manifold or the drainage system.
ƒ To ensure sufficient reliability, the recommended water quality values are shown in the table below:

pH value
Conductivity
Total hardness
Carbonate hardness
With carbonate hardness stabilisation
Total salt content
Chloride content
Sulphate
Manganese
Aggressive carbonic acid
KMnO4 consumption
Warning: Supply the humidifier with water from the network. Do not use demineralised water.
The water must have a conductivity of 125 to 1250 μS/cm and a hardness of 15 to 30°F.
When using softeners or treatment systems for particularly hard water, the final hardness must not be less than 40%
of the initial hardness or below 15°F.
