Mounting and installation work
The installation site of the Condair RS depends largely on the location of the steam distributor (see
chapter
5.4.2
). To
ensure
proper functioning
of the steam humidifier and to
obtain an optimal efficiency
, the
following points must be considered and observed when choosing the location for the steam humidifier:
– Install the steam humidifier so that:
– the
length of the steam
line is kept as short as possible (
max. 4 m
),
– the
minimum bend radius for steam hoses (R= 300 mm)
and for
solid steam pipes (5 x
internal diameter)
and the minimum
upslope
and
downslope (min. 15 %/8.5°)
of the steam
lines is maintained (see
chapter 5.4.5
).
– The Condair RS is designed for wall-mounting in protected interiors. Make sure that the construction
(wall, pillar, floor-mounted console, etc.) to which the humidifier is to be mounted, offers a
suffi-
ciently high load-bearing capacity
(take notice of the weight information found in the dimensions
and weights table), and is suitable for the installation.
CAUTION!
Do
not
mount the steam humidifier directly to the ventilation duct (insufficient stability).
– The back panel of the Condair RS retains heat during operation (max. surface temperature of the
metal housing approx. 60 - 70 °C). Make sure, therefore, that the construction (wall, pillar, etc.) to
which the unit is to be mounted, does not consist of heat-sensitive material.
– Install the Condair RS in such a manner that it is
freely accessible
with sufficient space available
for maintenance purposes. The
minimum distances
shown in
Fig. 9
must be maintained
.
– In order to use the cables supplied with double units and Linkup systems, the unit must be mounted
on the same height, with a maximum distance between the units of 50 mm and in the order shown
in
Fig. 9
.
– The Condair RS is protected according to
IP21
. Make sure the unit is installed in a drip-proof location
and the admissible ambient conditions are complied with.
– Do
not
mount the Condair RS to hot or very cold walls or near vibrating components.
– The steam humidifier Condair RS must only be installed in rooms with a floor drain.
CAUTION!
If for some reason the Condair RS must be installed in a location without floor drain, it is manda-
tory to provide a leakage monitoring device to safely interrupt the water supply in case of leakage.
– When mounting the Condair RS use
only the mounting materials supplied with the unit
. If mount-
ing with the materials supplied is not possible in your particular case, select a method of mounting
that is of similar stability.
– The Condair RS is designed for installation and operation within buildings (admissible temperature
range 5...40 °C). For outdoor operation the Condair RS must be placed in a weather protective hous-
ing. If ambient temperatures near or below the freezing point have to be expected, the protective
housing must equipped with a thermostat controlled heating of sufficient capacity. The water supply
pipe must be equipped with a trace-heating and must be insulated up to the protective housing.
The installation of a normally open valve inside the building envelope that will drain water in case of
power failure is highly recommended
