AHU (air handling unit), and for direct humidifi cation or cooling in rooms. CAUTION: The product must only be used for its intended purpose, as envisaged by CAREL. CAREL declines all liability, both contractual and extra-contractual, for any damage to people, animals or things due to installation, control or maintenance errors or improper use.
Personal protective equipment DANGER Strictly follow the instructions provided in the manual. Personal protective equipment (PPE) means any equipment intended to be worn and kept by workers in order to protect them- selves against one or more risks likely to threaten their health or safety during work, as well as any device or accessory intended for this purpose.
• to connect the pumping station to the blowers, use the water circuit assemblies and electrical panels supplied separately by Carel (see the list of accessories); • to facilitate commissioning, plates already equipped with electrical connectors are available for simply and quickly connecting the electrical panels to the solenoid valves on the distribution manifolds.

4.2.2 Room Notice: • do not install the blowers in niches, closed corridors or behind curtains, as this would hinder the uniform distribution of hu- midifi ed air; • the air leaving the blowers is colder and more humid, and the noise levels of the nozzles and fans must be taken into consid- eration.

5. INSTALLATION NOTES Network connection See the technical data table for the specifi cations of the connection cables. 5.1.1 Zone panel connection The connection is made using an Ethernet cable from the pumping station to the zone panels, as shown in the fi gure. CAUTION: the maximum allowed length of an Ethernet connection between two devices is 100 m (for longer distanc- es, use switch P/N KITSE08000).
Distribution system 5.2.1 Drain valve management (NOL) The pumping station manages and controls the line drain valve (NOL, normally open). The zone panel can also manage a con- nected line drain valve. Notice: the line drain valve must be fi tted at the lowest point in the water circuit and wired to the nearest electrical pan- el (pumping station or zone panel), so that when opened, the entire system is emptied.
Page 21
Functional diagrams - room CAUTION: the blower fi ll and drain valves are contained in the directbox hydraulic panel. The maximum allowable length for the water line leaving and re-entering the directbox or that, if no directbox is installed, connects the fi ll valve to the drain valve, is 30 m.

If, on the other hand, the humidifi er is supplied with water from a Carel reverse osmosis system connected to the potable water supply network, the double check valve must be installed on the inlet to the reverse osmosis system.
Electrical connections Before making the connections, make sure that the unit is disconnected from the power supply: turn the main system switch and pumping station switch to OFF. Install the cable glands on the left and right side of the electrical panel for the electrical cables to pass through. 6.3.1 Electrical panel Fig.
Control connections The type of control is selected on the user interface. See the humidifi cation system commissioning manual. Notice: for all control connections: • recommended cable size: 0.3 - 0.5 mm² (AWG 22/20) up to 30 m • recommended cable size: 0.8 - 1.3 mm2 (AWG 18/16) > 30 m 6.4.1 Enable pumping station production (PEN): Pump Enable Notice: the pumping station is supplied with the PEN-G0A contacts jumpered.

For duct humidifi cation, any biocides used for cleaning can only be added discontinuously. Based on its extensive experience in designing intrinsically-safe high-pressure systems that automatically prevent water stagnation, Carel strongly recommends against using biocides as a cleaning method for the humidifi er components in contact with water, unless microbiological con- tamination has been proven.
7.1.2 Hygiene measures Below is the list of preventive hygiene checks and their frequency, as required by the VDI 6022-1 guidelines and applicable to the humiFog system when used for duct humidifi cation.
