Humidifier
The maintenance interval of the water reservoir will depend on the quality of the water and the
purity of the air that is sucked in. Contronics advises al least 1 x year maintenance.
The transducers must be replaced after approximately 20,000 operating hours (i.e. after about
2 years in the case of continuous use).
Check the following before starting maintenance or shipping the humidifier:
-
The mains plug has been removed from the socket and the ventilator is not
moving.
-
The water supply has been closed.
-
The water supply pipe has been removed.
-
The humidity sensor plug has been removed.
-
The water reservoir is empty and the water discharge hose has been removed.
-
The humidifier remains horizontal while dismantling.
Cleaning
-
Remove the connecting flange.
-
Clean the reservoir with a soft brush or cloth.
In the case of water scale, the reservoir can be filled with household vinegar. Allow
to soak for 4-12 hours then clean with a soft brush and flush through. Remove the
filter from the water inlet. Clean the filter or replace it with a new one. Flush the water
discharge with water and clean it with a round brush.
R.O. system
Some maintenance is necessary in order to guarantee the long service life of the
system. Normal maintenance consists of replacing the sediment filter and the active
carbon filter(s). This should be done at least once a year if the humidifier is in
continuous use. If the supply water is heavily polluted with minerals or chlorine,
however, it is recommended to do this more often.
Checking the demineralised water
-
Take a sample of the supply water.
-
Measure the conductivity of the supplied tap water using a micro-siemens meter.
-
Take a sample of the demineralised water.
-
Measure the conductivity of the demineralised water using a micro-siemens
meter.
-
Divide the value found for the demineralised water by the value found for the
supplied tap water and multiply the result by 100%:
< 10%: the water quality is good
Between 10% and 20%: the water quality is acceptable
> 20%: the water quality is poor – replace the membrane.
-
If the micro-siemens value for the supplied tap water is >500 uS, it is
recommended to install a de-scaling system ahead of the R.O. system.
IMPORTANT
Make sure that the transducers are not damaged during cleaning.
