A p p l i c a t i o n G u i d e SECTION II SYSTEM OVERVIEW Why Choose the CS Series? The CS-Series offers a family of four different products custom sized to handle all of your steam distribution needs. The distribution system design has the following features that customers and engineers have told us they desire;...
A p p l i c a t i o n G u i d e SECTION II SYSTEM OVERVIEW Redefining Guaranteed Performance with the H.A.R.E. Using the proprietary H.A.R.E. (Humidified Air Research Environment) facility, HERRMIDIFIER engineers were able to accurately evaluate all potential humidification system variables - temperature, velocity, downstream relative humidity, and steam intensity.
A p p l i c a t i o n G u i d e SECTION II SYSTEM OVERVIEW Installation Guidelines Steam absorption distance for a system is defined in terms of “bulk” and “last wisp”. “Bulk” evaporative distance is the distance beyond which condensation will not occur on objects at duct temperature.
A p p l i c a t i o n G u i d e Parts Supplied with the Humidifier The HERRMIDIFIER CS Series steam distribution system is available in four basic configurations. As shown below, each of these systems include at a minimum a method of distributing steam, mounting provisions, a steam inlet connection, and a condensate drain(s) connection.

A p p l i c a t i o n G u i d e SECTION III HOW TO SELECT THE PROPER CS SERIES 1. Redefining Guaranteed Performance with the H.A.R.E. To properly select your new steam distribution system, some information is required initially. You will need to know the duct or air handler dimensions where the unit is to be installed, the capacity requirement, and what type of control and accessories will be used.
A p p l i c a t i o n G u i d e SECTION III HOW TO SELECT THE PROPER CS SERIES We recommend a minimum of 6” downstream of an object for service and installation concerns. The only time 6” is insufficient would be on a VAV system which combines manifolds in the air handler and a very high steam intensity - which is a rare condition.
A p p l i c a t i o n G u i d e SECTION III HOW TO SELECT THE PROPER CS SERIES 4. “Correction Factor for Duct Temperature and Duct Relative Humidity The steam intensity is defined as the amount of steam in lb /hr to be distributed by a foot of evaporative tube.
25, the CS-3110 may be a possibility. It may be possible that the CS-3110 is more expensive than the CS-3115 or CS-3119 to achieve the save evaporative performance. Consult your TRION/ HERRMIDIFIER representative for a comparative analysis.
A p p l i c a t i o n G u i d e SECTION III HOW TO SELECT THE PROPER CS SERIES How to Select the Proper Accessories Steam Valve: Valves are available for all capacity requirements. At this time all valves are selected by the factory. To make the selection, we need to know capacity requirements, inlet steam pressure, and any special features required such as stainless steel construction.
