  • Page 12: Operation And Installation

    4. Operation and Installation 4.1 Mode of Operation The HygroMatik steam humidifier utilizes the conductivity nor- mally present in tap water for steam production. Electrodes inside an enclosed steam cylinder are immersed directly into the tap water. They are connected to the alternating current.

  • Page 14 The concentration of dissolved salts increases over time, which can lead to a rise in the conductivity of the water. If this contin- ues, conductivity may increase until a short circuit occurs. This could damage the unit, but in any case would significantly reduce the life span of the electrodes.
  • Page 15: Installation

    The minimum clearances indicated in the diagram below must be observed; these are necessary to ensure adequate ventilation for the housing. • HygroMatik humidifiers are not suitable for direct out- door installation. • The steam humidifier should be installed as close as possible to the steam manifold.

  • 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“...

    5.4 Steam Manifold 5.4.1 Notes on Installation These notes are based on a homogeneous Horizontal installation of Standard steam manifold installation: steam manifold Duct Steam Manifold Air flow direction L1=L2=L3 An even distribution of steam manifolds ensures a uniform steam distribution.
  • Page 23 Air duct Positioning of steam manifolds Sample flat Staggered vertically and laterally Air flow very flat By tilting the steam manifold 30 - 45° very flat duct towards the air flow direction, the mini- mum upper clearance can be reduced to 70mm.
  • Page 24 With high-pressure air-conditioning systems, the unit's drain or supply hose must be lengthened 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.
