12. ADVANCED FUNCTIONS 12.1 Operating principle Immersed electrode humidifi ers manufacture steam by boiling the water contained inside the cylinder. The heat required to boil the water is produced by passing an electrical current through the cylinder. This is done by applying a voltage to the electrodes immersed in the water. Initially, when the cylinder is new or has just been cleaned, the current depends almost exclusively on the type of supply water: the more salts in the water, the higher the current, and the required steam production...
Drain due to excess foam 12.7 Auxiliary contact management (active With certain types of supply water, foam may form during the production fan request) of steam just above the water.
