  • Page 12: Steam Distribution Nozzle Positioning

    ELMC-SB ElectroVap® STEAM DISTRIBUTION NOZZLE POSITIONING The steam coming out of the cylinder is carried through the steam hose to a distribution nozzle, which allows the steam to be distributed in the steam room. Our steam nozzle is made of a special anti-scald material. There are two diameters of steam nozzles, a 40mm diameter and a 25mm diameter.
  • Page 13: Steam Outlet

    ELMC-SB ElectroVap® STEAM OUTLET 1. Preferably use a flexible steam hose that can withstand a temperature of 100°C. Note: When new hoses are installed, a burnt plastic odor may occur when the steam generator is first turned on. This smell is normal and will decrease in time. 2.
  • Page 14: Drain Hose Connection

    ELMC-SB ElectroVap® DRAIN HOSE CONNECTION The following drawing shows the connection of the drain hose that must be made. Use a Ø 25 mm rubber drain hose with the supplied hose clamp, heat resistant (up to 100°C). Connect the hose to the drain system. It is recommended to replace it regularly. If you use a rigid pipe, it must be made of heat-resistant PVC (up to 100°C).
  • Page 15 ELMC-SB ElectroVap® A funnel can also be used (see picture below), but it should be offset from the underside of the unit to prevent any steam and/or condensation from getting into the cabinet. Drain hose (option) Funnel (not supplied) α Sewer pipe (minimum downward slope (α) of 10°) Fig.
  • Page 16: Temperature Sensor Positioning

    ELMC-SB ElectroVap® TEMPERATURE SENSOR POSITIONING The temperature sensor monitors the temperature inside the steam room, and this information is then sent to the steam generator. Mounting - Drill a hole of Ø 25mm in your wall - Insert the cable in the hole and from the inside of the hammam. - Mark and drill the 3 holes opposite, put in the dowels.
