    OPERATING AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS LBE 250A / LBE 500A PAGE 7 Switching off the ventilation unit If the ventilation unit is shut down for longer than one day, the air humidification unit must be switched off at least two hours before. In this way, the air humidification unit is dried out, and hygienically flawless functioning is ensured.
  • Page 8 OPERATING AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS LBE 250A / LBE 500A PAGE 8 Mounting The unit is intended for horizontal mounting. It must be mounted on a massive, load-bearing wall with a maximum permissible deviation of +/- 1° from the horizontal position. The net operating weight of the humidification unit must be taken into consideration for the suspension.

    The unit works automatically, the humidity in the unit is monitored electronically. Excess humidity of the supply air is therefore ruled out. The LBE 250A air humidification unit is dimensioned for a maximum operating air volume flow of 350 m³/h, the LBE 500A for a maxi- mum operating air volume flow of 500 m³/h.
