Introduction
Receiving and Unpacking Equipment
Check packing slip to ensure ALL material has been delivered. Each humidifier may be shipped
in more than one box.
All material shortages are to be reported to CONDAIR within 48 hours from receipt of goods.
CONDAIR assumes no responsibility for any material shortages beyond this period.
Inspect boxes for damage and note on shipping waybill accordingly.
After unpacking, inspect equipment for damage. If damage is found, notify the shipper promptly.
All CONDAIR products are shipped on an F.O.B. factory basis. Any and all damage, breakage, or loss
claims are to be made to the shipping company.
Location of Humidifier’s Manifold in an Air Conditioning System
Although Nortec SAM-e distribution systems are designed to provide drip-less humidification, several
operating factors related to steam supply may result in excess moisture or water collecting in steam-tube
pipe with the potential for water damage. To ensure protection against water damage, best practice
includes either a sealed section of duct or, preferably a drip-pan with drain installed underneath each
unit. In addition, to facilitate maintenance checks and inspections, an inspection cover, inspection glass
or service opening should be installed downstream.

Notes
Absorption distance: the distance between the
Nortec
SAM-e and the first obstruction (coil, elbow,
damper, etc.) that steam may encounter. Traces of steam may pass the obstruction, but will not
condense, leaving obstructions dry. If any of the duct or air-handling unit (AHU) conditions are changed
between design and installation, calculated absorption distance may change. It is advisable to re-
calculate absorption distance to ensure that Nortec SAM-e operates as intended. If changes are
required, please contact factory for assistance.
