3. HOW NEBULA
®
OPERATES
The patented NEBULA
®
system can control humidity so that the set value is attained and kept constant,
without producing wide, long-lasting and unwanted fluctuations in temperature and humidity during incubation.
In fact, thanks to its continuous variable system, NEBULA
®
supplies energy to the water by means of a
generator, producing microscopic droplets (fog effect). The supplied hose transports the droplets to the
incubator. Once in contact with the heat, the droplets instantly evaporate creating humidity that the fan in the
incubator homogenises.
NEBULA
®
is not affected by the humidity present in the room where it is placed.
The ideal environment to use it is the same of the incubator it is associated to, therefore in a house or in a
temperate room.
4. PREPARATION AND START-UP OF THE HUMIDIFIER
NEBULA
®
has been conceived to work with any small/medium-sized incubator.
NEBULA
®
must be placed beside the incubator
(photo A)
. Choose a room where the temperature is
+20°C
and +25°C
, without air drafts, clean, well aerated and comfortable. The appliances must not be exposed to
direct sunrays or next to heat sources such as radiators, stoves, etc.
Do not use or store the humidifier in a room where there are chemicals, poisonous, toxic or flammable
substances, even in small concentrations.
Do not use the humidifier where there is the risk of contact with water or other liquids.
4A - PREPARATION OF THE INCUBATOR
If you possess a River Systems
®
incubator, series EGG TECH
®
(ET12, ET24 or ET49) produced after January
2018 (serial number starting from 18/00001) your machine is instantly compatible with the NEBULA
®
. Remove
the bung at the back of the incubator’s lid
(photo B)
.
For the incubators EGG TECH
®
produced before this date or for machines with a similar structure, it is
necessary to make a hole at the back of the incubator
(photo C)
. The diameter of the hole must be 23mm.
For all the other incubators, the hole must be made far from the heating system and, when present, ventilation
system.
4B - CONNECTION OF NEBULA
®
TO THE INCUBATOR
Preparations before starting the incubator.
Place NEBULA
®
on the left of the incubator, at the same level (
photo D
), on a flat table that must be at least
500 mm high, in a horizontal position, stable and secure. The base of NEBULA
®
must rest directly on the table
in order to prevent any obstruction of the ventilation holes that are at the bottom.
1. For the EGG TECH
®
incubators, or similar, affix the humidity sensor (14)
(photo E)
to the bracket (13) and
place it into the base of the incubator, on the turret next to the left basin
(photo F)
. NOTICE: the egg tray
must already be in place. Always remove the sensor before extracting the egg tray to prevent damaging it.
For any other incubator, place the sensor, with or without its bracket, next to the eggs and far from the
ventilation and heating systems.
