5. Mechanical installation
Risk of foot injuries!
Prevent unit from dropping during installation!
Helping hand of a second person is advis-
able.
Risk of electrical shock!
Hazardous electrical voltage.
During installation, the unit must be discon-
nected from power supply and secured
against being switched on again. The
absence of voltage must be ensured by a
measurement.
5.1 Environment parameters to
be met
• By design, the kits are not qualified for
outdoor installation since electrical/
electro-mechanical/electronical compo-
nents (depending on configuration vari-
ant) and water-bearing parts may be
damaged
• Ambient temperature must lie between
+5 and +40 °C (+41 and +104 °F) ; frost
may damage the steam cylinder, the
solenoid valve and pump, as well as
make hoses burst
• Relative humidity must not exceed
80 % r.h., since values beyond may
lead to electronic malfunction or dam-
age
• Installation in a closed room requires
aeration and, eventually, temperature
conditioning in order to meet the a.m.
environmental conditions
5.2 Mounting recommendations
When selecting the installation site for the
steam humidifier, take the following into
account:
• The kit should be installed as close as
possible to the steam manifold. Opti-
mum performance is only guaranteed
when steam and condensate hoses are
kept short
• Make use of existing water connections
for supply and draining
• Hoses must be laid at a consistent 5 to
10 % incline/decline; sagging and kink-
ing prevention is a must
• Mount the unit on a stable, preferably
solid wall offering the bearing capacity
required (s. unit technical specifica-
tions) or standing on a horizontal, level
surface. If such a wall is not at hand,
the unit may be attached to a stand
bracket firmly bolted to the floor.
• The steam humidifier console heats up
during operation. Take care that the
construction on which the unit is to be
mounted is not made of temperature-
sensitive material.
• The elbow is to be attached to a suit-
able vertical surface ba means of a
screw
When selecting the mounting material to be
supplied by the customer, attention must be
payed to adequate strength. For the correct
functioning of the steam humidifier it is
required that the device is mounted level and
plumb.
After mounting the kit make sure that it sits
firmly.
To fulfil all safety requirements, ensure suffi-
cient ventilation of the installation kit in the
housing.
