ElectroVap MC
Water connection
Installation
A fresh mains cold water service should be used to
supply the unit. The water supply must also satisfy
the following requirements.
• Water quality: 30 to 1000 µ/cm
• Water Pressure: 1-6 bar
• Water Temp: less than 40°C
The water supply connection is under bottom of the
unit. All the ELMC are deliver
ed
with a water inlet
hose (500mm long) with
a
female
3/4
” connection to
the cold water supply.
A check valve should be located on the mains
and cold water service connection to the unit.
The inlet valve base has a basket filter see (page
n°
44
part n° 3).
The Humidifier ELMC can run with 3 different water
qualities:
TAP WATER
The water TH should be
between 0 and 40° French
grade
for a conductivity
between 1000 and 350 µ/s.
For the maintenance frequency of the cylinder see
the maintenance curve. The ELMC incorporates a
time counter (hours, steam KG...
)
and shows
maintenance messages when appropriate.
SOFTENED WATER
The ElectroVap MC humidifier may be used with
softened water :
0°<TH< 2°.
IMPORTANT: Softeners must be programmed
correctly. Failure to programme the softener
correctly may lead to excessive salt concentration in
the steam cylinder. For assistance contact the
Softener Manufacturer. The use of duplex softeners
is recommended.
Reverse Osmosis and
Demineralised Water
The ElectroVap MC humidifier may be used with
Reverse Osmosis or Demineralised water. The
minimum water quality is 30 µ/s. On start-up with
new steam cylinder a tea spoon of bicarbonate of
soda must be added.
The water supply must be made without any
additional chemicals (chlorine, disinfectant,
ozone). Also some water qualities may generate
foam causing disturbances with the correct
control of the humidifier. Please refer to Devatec
technical services for further assistance.
The water level must be between (a)
and (b) for the maximum cylinder
capacity.
