5.1 Water supply characteristics
The
humiFog
must be supplied exclusively with treated water according to the listed limit values. Under normal circumstances, this
means that the water must be treated with a Reverse Osmosis or Deionizer system.

): The minimum supply flow is required to the pump at the minimum supply pressure to meet the positive displacement
pump characteristics. The minimum supply flow is approximately 25% more than the nominal rated pump flow. The flow
rate and pressure can be greatly reduced by other processes, which need to be considered during and after installation.
