fine mist to be delivered into the room by the laminar airflow of an AHU fan. DAH humidifiers may be mounted in the air distribution ductwork or rack mounted in the AHU. For large AHU applications with low AHU air velocity, ultrasonic humidifier models DAH-24 and DAH-30 may be equipped with an optional booster fan to propel the mist out.
Series GEN 2 Ultrasonic Humidifier IOM Manual outlet. The drain valve solenoid is controlled by the Level Controller to drain water from the tank via the drain outlet. If the water level in the tank exceeds the height of the overflow pipe, the excess water is diverted to the drain outlet.
Booster Fan (Optional DAH-24/30 Only) DAH Series Ultrasonic Humidifiers are to be installed in air handlers or air ducts designed with a terminal velocity of 450 to 750 FPM across the humidifier so the mist is readily eliminated by the pressure drop caused by the air passing over the mist guide.
Series GEN 2 Ultrasonic Humidifier IOM Manual Mounting Rack (Optional) A multi-tier mounting rack can be provided. This enables the assembly of 1 to 5 ultrasonic units together for installation in an AHU or in an air duct. The mounting rack (Figure 2) is designed to support the total weight of the humidifiers mounted to it. It establishes the optimal spacing between units to ensure efficient operation.

Series GEN 2 Ultrasonic Humidifier IOM Manual Supply and Drain Piping The Ultrasonic Humidifier will require a field-installed water supply line and overflow drain line. Refer to the piping diagram provided with your unit for details. For the water supply, use DI or RO water. The water supply to the humidifier cannot be taken directly from the public water service.
All wire sizes listed are for stranded, THHN or NTW wire only. (Do not use solid conductor wire.) For distances over 75 feet, contact Product Support for assistance by fax (301) 620-1396, telephone (888) 529-1266 or E-mail (parts@stulz-ats.com). In addition to the above power wires, humidifiers controlled by the Ultra-Series control box use RJ45/CAT5 data communication cables, daisy chained from the humidifier(s) to the control box.
As a standard, GEN2 Ultrasonic humidifiers are equipped with a twist lock power connector and two RJ45 ports for data communication. The Ultrasonic Humidifier control box will also be equipped with an RJ45 port for data communication. DAH Series Ultrasonic Humidifiers are designed to be installed in an AHU or in discharge ductwork.
Series GEN 2 Ultrasonic Humidifier IOM Manual Single Humidifier Once the Ultrasonic Humidifier and control box are installed, the total 48VDC wire length and wire size (AWG) should be determined using the table below. A junction box (not provided) is necessary in the AHU or ductwork to make the connection between the field-installed 48VDC power wiring and the factory provided humidifier power cable.
This allows water to flow to the humidifier. Perform a manual drain cycle to flush any particulates from the tank using the system controller (see STULZ Ultra-Series Controller IOM Manual OUU0078). Set the humidity setpoint to the desired humidity level.
Series GEN 2 Ultrasonic Humidifier IOM Manual Atomized mist is visible from the mist outlet. Check the humidifier parts, supply water piping and drain piping for signs of leaking water.
