  • 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.

    5.1.1 Fitting measures Clearances Note: When choosing the site for the steam humidifier, consider the location of existing water installations (feed and drain lines). Mounting Fixtures (for HY45 to HY116) The unit should be mounted on a stable wall. Note: To achieve a uniform immersed surface area for the elec- trodes, the humidifier must be installed plumb and level.

  • Page 22: 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 23 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“...
