There are multiple points in the humidification system where a contamination can occur. It is the responsibility of the customer and of Condair to ensure that health hazards due to contamination are reduced to acceptable levels. The use of a hygiene risk assessor is recommended.
Repair and fault finding. Training and guidance. Note: * Condair uses a quick method for measuring bacterial activity in the water with the use of BactiQuant (BQ). Once the water sample has been taken, the bacteriological quality of the water is read within 30 minutes, and the Condair service team will disinfect the system if necessary.
Product Description General Description The Ultrasonic Blower Pack is used along with an atmospheric mist generating humidifier to distribute very fine water droplets directly into local areas or into spaces that do not have a built-in air distribution system. The Ultrasonic Blower Pack must be mounted directly on the Ultrasonic Humidifier, or remotely mounted on suitable surfaces in the space.

Observe and comply with all local and national codes dealing with water and electrical installations. Condair does not accept any liability for installation of humidification equipment by unqualified personnel, or the use of equipment and parts that are not authorized by Condair.
WARNING! Do NOT leave the unit without power. Risk of contamination. Do NOT leave the unit unpowered for more than 48 hours, or else a total system disinfect will be required. Without power, the system will not flush properly, resulting in standing water and con- ditions that may promote the growth of micro-organisms.
To reduce condensate losses in remote installations, Condair recommends installing the Ultrasonic Blower Pack as close to the humidifier as possible. Distances longer than an equivalent straight-length of 2 m (6.6 ft) reduces the mist output drastically.

Site Requirements 7.4.1 Mounting Requirements □ The selected location for the humidifier and blower pack should meet the requirements described in "Location Requirements" on page 20 "Clearance Requirements" on page 20. □ The Ultrasonic Blower Pack is designed for wall-mounting in protected interiors. The mounting surface (wall, pillar, etc.) for the Ultrasonic Blower Pack and humidifier must offer a sufficiently high load-bearing capacity, and be suitable for the installation.
Installation The Ultrasonic Blower Pack can be installed directly onto a medium sized Ultrasonic Humidifier, and can be installed remotely for any Ultrasonic Humidifier. To learn how to mount the unit remotely, refer to "Remote-Mounted Installation" on the facing page. To learn how to mount the unit directly (on a medium humidifier), refer to "Direct-Mounted Install- ation"...
The electrical installation work requires removal of the covers on the Ultrasonic Blower Pack and door panels of the humidifier. Before proceeding with the installation, Condair recommends that you familiarize yourself with flexible tube installation on the humidifier. Refer to the Ultrasonic Humidifier Installation Manual.

b. Route the 'connecter' end (item 3) of the flexible tube to the top of the water reservoir. Secure the connection by gently inserting the connector and tube into the reservoir, as seen in Figure 9 - below. If the Ultrasonic Blower Pack is directly mounted on the humidifier, the mist channel con- nection extends through the top of the humidifier, into the plumbing cabinet.
