1-844-357-4477 Description ISE steam exchange humidifier is a steam generator that uses pressurized steam heat exchanger to produce pure and sterile steam at atmospheric pressure that is distributed in air handling unit or ventilation duct, or directly into space.
End of life disposition Ensure that ISE steam exchange humidifier is empty from water, if not proceed same way as for a standard drain for service. Disconnect ISE steam exchange humidifier from power supply, electrical control signal, water main supply, Steam line, and drain.
Others Risk of flooding. In order to avoid any risk of flooding steamOvap recommends a Hi limit humidity switch installed in the air duct downstream of the steam distribution ramp. Risk of freezing. Plan an anti-freeze system in case of installation in a location that would be exposed to outside conditions and susceptible of freezing.
2. Verify that model of the humidifier matches the purchase order and that all accessories are included. 3. Any missing item should be reported as soon as possible to steamOvap or its representative and within 5 business days after receipt.

ISE steam exchange humidifier should be installed in a well-ventilated and dry environment. If local is subject to below freezing point temperature, activation of ant freezing function of the ISE steam exchange humidifier is required.

Clearance guidelines There is no minimum clearance on left side of the ISE steam exchange humidifier, but it is a good practice to have a clearance of 4 to 8 in [100 to 200mm] for ease of installation and service.

1. Verify that wall structure and strength is appropriate to support the operating weight of the ISE steam exchange humidifier. In case that wall is not solid enough to support operating weight of ISE humidifier, install it on a floor stand (FS option is available to your steamOvap representative).
Water supply pressure: 15 to 80PSI [1 to 5bar] Water supply temperature: 37 to 105°F [3 to 40°C] ISE steam exchange humidifier can accept a wide range of water quality. Untreated water will lead to scale deposits that will need to be regularly removed from steam chamber.
1. Install a manual; shut off valve on the water main line. 2. If ISE humidifier is supplied with tap water it is recommended to install a 10µ sediment filter on the line. This filter will protect internal water fill valve from clogging.

Figure 14 – Actuated control valve recommendation Condensate line installation: Do not use thermostatic or Thermodynamic traps for condensate from ISE heat exchanger. Condensate must be drained to a non-pressurized boiler condensate return line. Risk of heat exchanger damage, Do not use pressurized steam to lift condensate.

Note: when using rigid stem pipe (stainless steel or copper) it is a good practice to connect in between the steam ramp, ISE steam exchange humidifier and pipe by using a small length of steam hose for ease of installation and service.

Connect the earth conductor with a lug and secure it to the GND threaded stud.. 4. Secure and attach the supply wiring, and close the transformer cover. 5. It is a good practice to install a switch of disconnect closed to the ISE humidifier in order to easily shutting it down for service.
An enable dry contact can also be wired to switch the humidifier ON or OFF, this enable contact can be used either as a third safety control or as a way to control the humidifier ON and OFF, although ISE humidifier is fully modulating.
Page 33
1. Ensure that the safety contact for Air proving switch and Hi limit humidistat are connected to the terminals 4 and 5. 2. Connect the applicable controls according to the above wiring diagram 3. Selection of control signal is done through set-up screens once the ISE humidifier will be powered.
