    They will impress you with their safety, ease of use and econo- mical operation. In order to operate your HygroMatik steam humidifier safely, pro- perly and efficiently, please read these operating instructions. Employ your steam humidifier only in sound condition and as directed.
  • Page 6: Directions For Use

    / condensate water (only for humidifier type HeaterLine, HeaterCompact/Kit and HeaterSlim). Warning: HygroMatik steam humidifiers emit steam with a tem- perature of 100°C/212°F. The steam may not be inhaled directly. Proper usage also entails following HygroMatik's instructions for installation, dismantling, reassembly, initial operation and opera- tion and maintenance, as well as disposal procedures.
  • Page 7: 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 8: Disposal After Dismantling

    After proper electrical installation or repair, test all safety mechanisms (such as grounding resis- tance). 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.

  • Page 12: Operation And Installation

    4. Operation and Installation 4.1 Mode of Action The Imersion Heater Principle One to five heater elements (8) are placed in a closed cylinder and connected to alternating current. The cylinder (9) is filled with tap water, fully demineralized water or partially softened water.
  • Page 13 (“Dry Run”). The cylinder water is periodically flushed out with a heavy-duty blow-down pump (10). Hygromatik’s SUPER FLUSH system effectively assists this operation. The SUPER FLUSH mecha- nism generates a strong whirlpool effect in the strainer basket which aids removal of scale deposits during the blow-down pro- cess.
  • Page 14: Internal Output Setting

    Direct room humidification (without ducts) is performed using fan units (with blower and nozzle). The steam generator is con- nected to the fan unit with steam and condensate hoses. Steam lines in steam bath cabins employ special steam hoses and piping (if required). Accumulated condensate is normally routed into the steam cabin.
  • Page 15: 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 16: Fitting Measures

    5.1.1 Fitting Measures Wall Distance > 50mm/ > 200mm/ > 500mm/ > 300mm/ Note: It is often advantageous to use existing water connections (feed and drain) when selecting the steam humidifier. Wall Mounting Note: To function properly the steam humidifier must be installed vertically.

  • Page 18: Absorption Distance Bn

    5.2 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. Within the absorption distance, steam is visible as mist in the air stream. Condensation may occur on anything installed within 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.

    5.7 Condensate Hose Note: When installing the condensate hose, please pay atten- tion to the following: Warning: To keep condensate from accumulating in the duct, make sure condensate can drain freely. Installation type 1 If the steam manifold is positioned higher than 500mm/ 19.7inch above the steam humidifier: »...
  • Page 32 HL30 - HL45 HL6 -HL27 Connection condensate hose / hoses Lay the condensate hose at an approximate incline of 5-10% to the steam cylinder connection fitting, to allow the condensate to drain freely. Note: It is recommended to form a loop of 200mm/7.9inch diame- ter as a vapour trap provided there is enough space.
  • Page 33: Steam Solenoid Valves

    Installation type 2 If the steam manifold is positioned lower than 500mm/ 19.7inch above the steam humidifier: » The condensate must be drained separately. » To prevent steam loss, lay a loop at least 200mm/ 7.9inch in di-ameter. » To ensure condensate drainage, place the loop (vapor trap) as far away as possible below the steam manifold connection.
  • Page 34: Chimney-Compartment

    Chimney-compartment Between electrical compartment (right side) and steam produc- tion compartment (left side) the chimney compartment is located. The chimney compartment is used to cool electronic components. For proper function make sure that the three holes in the top side of the housing are not covered - otherwise the heat removal is too low and a thermal cutout could be triggered.
  • Page 35: Water Installation

    Boiling normal tap water always produces lime. Lime deposits on the surface of the heater elements may reduce their lifetime. We recommend to use a water treatment device in order to pre- vent scaling. In case of any questions regarding water treatment devices please contact HygroMatik. Page 35...
  • Page 36: Water Supply (For Operation With Demineralized Water Or Purified Condensate)

    Make sure that a backflow preventer is installed in the water supply line. Note: Shut-off valve (AV), water filter (WF) and backflow pre- venter are not provided by HygroMatik. Install as follows: » Check whether the valve strainer has been inserted in the solenoid valve.
  • Page 37: Water Supply (For Operation With Tap Water Or Partially/Fully Softened Water)

    Water supply: 1bar min., 10bar max./ 14.5psi min., 145psi max. » HygroMatik provides a water hose (56) with a cap nut at both ends which can be used for water installation. Install as follows: » Screw and tighten the cap nut with its inner seal ring around the water supply screw connection that pro- trudes from the base.
  • Page 38: Feed From Holding Tank

    6.3.1 Feed from Holding Tank If a holding tank will be used to supply water, the „option sole- noid valve 0-10bar” must be ordered. Make sure that the feed height is at least 0.5m/19.7inch. If the height is less than 0.5m/ 19.7inch, insert a feed pump or install the humidifier lower if pos- sible.
  • Page 39: Water Discharge

    6.5 Water Discharge Warning: During blow down hot water with a temperature of about 95 °C/203 °F is being drained. If touched this can cause burns to the skin. With the optional wastewater cooling system HyCool, HygroMa- tik offers an option for limiting the wastewater temperature of the steam humidifier.
