    / condensate water (only for humidifier type HeaterLine, HeaterCompact and HeaterSlim). Warning: HygroMatik steam humidifiers emit steam with a tem- perature of 100° C. The steam may not be inhaled directly. Only qualified and authorised personnel may operate the unit.

  • Page 7: Safety Notes

    2. Safety Notes 2.1 Overview These safety notes are required by law. They promote work- place safety and accident prevention. Warnings and Safety Symbols The safety symbols below identify sections containing warnings about hazards or potential dangers. Please familiarize yourself with these symbols.

  • Page 8: Disposal After Dismantling

    HygroMatik steam humidifiers are IP20-protected. Make sure that the unit is protected from drips in its installed location. Installing a humidifier in a room without water discharge requires safety devices to protect against water leakages. Accident Prevention Regulations Comply with the Accident Prevention Regulation Electrical Sys- tems and Equipment to prevent injury to yourself and others.

  • Page 11: Operation And Installation

    4. Operation and Installation 4.1 Mode of Action The Imersion Heater Principle One to five heater elements (8) are placed in a closed cylinder and connected to alternating current. The cylinder (9) is filled with tap water, fully demineralized water or partially softened water.
  • Page 12 (“Dry Run”). The cylinder water is periodically flushed out with a heavy-duty blow-down pump (10). Hygromatik’s SUPER FLUSH system effectively assists this operation. The SUPER FLUSH mecha- nism generates a strong whirlpool effect in the strainer basket which aids removal of scale deposits during the blow-down pro- cess.

  • Page 13: Internal Output Setting

    For maintenance the cylinder can be drained by pressing the control switch „Pos.II”. 4.3 Internal Output Setting Continuous control of the HeaterLine Type steam humidifier is achieved by proportional control ( pulse-width modulation) of the heater elements. In this way the humidifier can be proportionally operated across the entire output range of 5% - 100% nominal capacity.

    5. Mechanical Installation Warning: Installation of this unit should be performed by quali- fied personnel only. Hygromatik accept no liability for damage due to faulty installation. Obey all safety instructions and warnings on the unit. During installation the unit must be disconnected from its power supply.

  • Page 19: Absorption Distance Bn

    5.3 Absorption Distance B The "absorption distance" (B ) is defined as the distance from the steam feed to where the steam is completely absorbed in the treated air. Inside the absorption distance, steam is visible as mist in the air stream. Condensation may collect on anything installed inside the absorption distance.
  • Page 20 Length I of the usable steam manifold depends on the dimen- sions of the air duct. The length of the absorption distance can be reduced by using multiple steam manifolds (also see section on the steam manifold). Method: Graphically determine absorption distance B using the absorp- tion distance nomogram (also see Section „Absorption Distance Nomogramm“).

  • Page 24 With high-pressure air-conditioning systems, the unit's drain hose system must be modified depending on the over pressure. When this is the case please consult HygroMatik. • Install the steam manifold as close as possible to the steam humidifier in order to minimize steam loss through condensation.

  • Page 33 HL30 - HL45 HL6 -HL27 Connection condensate hose / hoses Lay the condensate hose at an approximate incline of 5-10% to the steam cylinder connection fitting, to allow the condensate to drain freely. Note: It is recommended to form a loop of 200 mm diameter as a vapour trap provided there is enough space.

  • Page 34: Steam Solenoid Valves

    Installation type 2 If the steam manifold is positioned lower than 500 mm above the steam humidifier: » The condensate must be drained separately. » To prevent steam loss, lay a loop at least 200 mm in di- ameter. » To ensure condensate drainage, place the loop (vapor trap) as far away as possible below the steam manifold connection.
