1. When using steam hose, use DriSteem steam hose for best results.

Field-supplied hose may have shorter life and may cause foaming
in the evaporating chamber resulting in condensate discharge
at the dispersion assembly. Do not use steam hose for outdoor
applications.

2. Maximum recommended length for steam hose is 10' (3 m). Longer

distances can cause kinking or low spots.

3. Insulate tubing to minimize loss of capacity and efﬁ ciency.
4. Developed length of tubing equals measured length plus 50% of measured

length, to account for ﬁ ttings.

Longer tubing lengths are possible at capacities lower than listed

maximums. Consult factory.

5. Requires ﬂ ange connection.

Note: Capacities and lengths in this table are based on total maximum pressure drop in hose or tubing of 5" wc (1250 Pa).
