1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Description
The KT series is a range of immersed electrode humidifiers by ELSTEAM.
The humidifiers in the KT series generate humidity (steam) when a current is applied to two or more electrodes immersed in tap
water,causingthewatertoboil.
Thesteamiscontrolledbymodulatingtheintensityofthecurrenttransferredtothewaterbytheimmersedelectrodes,soby
indirectly controlling the boiling water.
Steam is introduced into the room through a special flexible hose and a steam distributor in stainless steel and engineering
plastic (steam introduced into an AHU - air handling unit or an air conditioning duct) or a steam blower (steam introduced into
room).

1.3.1 Features of electronic control
• Proportional (logarithmic) control of steam production:
•
Highlyefficient;
•
Quickresponsetochangesinrequest;
• Accurate control of steam production.
• Automatic electrode and boiling cleaning system (international patent):
• Less maintenance required;
• High performance;
• Prolongs the life of the electrodes and boiler.
• Automatic boiler drainage:
• Removes any limescale which collects in the manifold sleeve;
• Prolongs the life of the boiler.
• LED signalling of operating status:
• Operating status always under control;
• Automatic fault analysis.
