14. TECHNICAL APPENDIX 14.1 Operating principle Proportional control with limit probe (see Figs. 14.1 and 14.3) Immersed electrode humidifi ers manufacture steam by boiling the See “proportional control”, with the addition of a limit probe, generally water contained inside the cylinder. The heat required to boil the water installed in the air duct downstream of the humidifi er.
Independent control with temperature probe 14.5 Automatic draining See the paragraph on “Independent control with relative humidity probe”. The humidifi er automatically drains and replaces some of the water The unit of measure in this case is °C (°F). contained in the cylinder, to prevent an excessive concentration of salts following the evaporation process.
To disable the “cylinder exhaustion” alarm: installer menu > options > cylinder pre-exhaustion alarm To set “cylinder exhaustion warning” (maximum operating hours): installer menu > options > cylinder lifetime warning (setting “0” disables the alarm).
