Installation Requirements
4.3.1 Humidifier Mounting
The Nortec RS humidifier can be mounted on a wall or equivalent support using the keyholes on the
back of the unit. 1/4×2 lag bolts are used to secure the unit to 2×4 studs in the wall (or equivalent sup-
port). Refer to
.
The unit can also be mounted on the wall (or equivalent support) using the optional mounting bar. Refer
to the Nortec RS Installation Manual (Condair document 2582302 available from
) for
other mounting details.
The following is a list of installation requirements for mounting the Nortec RS humidifier:
The humidifier should not be mounted on hot surfaces, or surfaces that can freeze, or near vibrating
components, or on the floor. The Nortec RS Space units should not be installed near cold surfaces
or where the dew point may be reached.
The mounting surface must be able to withstand temperatures of 140-158 °F (60-70 °C) that can be
generated during operation of the humidifier.
The humidifier should be mounted on a wall or other suitable vertical surface that offers a sufficiently
high load-bearing capacity to support the full operating weight of the humidifier and accessories.
Refer to
for the full weights of Nortec RS units, and
for the
Nortec RS Space units.
The humidifier should not be used as a structural member. All piping connected to the unit must be
supported independently.
The Nortec RS must not be mounted to hot or very cold walls or near vibrating components.
