ElectroVap MC Unit wall installation Unit mounting Unpack the ELMC humidifier and check for any damage. Damage to packing and/or unit must be reported by registered letter to carrier within 3 working days. Provide free space all around the unit : 1 m. to 1.20 m. (3 to 3 ft.) from the floor to the bottom of the humidifier, 1.25 m.
The water supply must be made without any additional chemicals (chlorine, disinfectant, ozone). Also some water qualities may generate foam causing disturbances with the correct control of the humidifier. Please refer to Devatec technical services for further assistance.

ElectroVap MC Steam pipe positioning Installation Positioning the recommended template profile for cut-out in DUCT/AHU (at the end of the brochure) A minimum distance of 300mm between the center of the steam distribution pipe and the top of the duct should be allowed. Where the distribution pipe is installed at an angle of between 30°C and 45°C, this may be reducted to 150mm.
ElectroVap MC Calculation of the evaporation distance Installation In order to determine the evaporation distance, the enclosed calculation table can be used with : RH1 = relative humidity of the air before humidification Before or after ventilation area RH2 = Relative humidity of the air after humidfication in % RH Max = maximum difference between RH1 &...
ElectroVap MC Optional temperature control sys INSTALLATION For sanitation : this system holds the water in the cylinder at a temperature of 65°C (150°F) to prevent bacteria or mold from forming in the cylinder if there is no humidity demand. For fast boiling : when there is a demand for humidity, the water boils more quickly than with cold water.
ElectroVap MC Electrical installation All works concerned with the electrical installation must be carried out by skilled and qualified personnel (eg electrician with appropriate training). The customer is responsible for ensuring their suitability. Please observe local regulations concerning the provision of electrical installations. After about 50 hours of operation, all the screws of the power terminals must be retightened.
