Putting into operation
When connected to several basic units these should be operated in parallel.
Otherwise condensate runs into the units switched off and fills these until
overflow occurs. Problems can then arise when switching on again.
The following should be ensured when putting into operation:
1. that the system pressure don’t increase over 1500 Pa. The system
pressure is componed of the air duct static pressure, the pressure drop
over the MultiPipe system (typical 500 Pa) and the back pressure in the
steam hose (typical 100 Pa/m)
2. that no water splashes from the steam distribution system and the con-
densate runs out of the system satisfactorily. Condensating forma tion
may be caused by:
• Steam supply pipe not properly drained
• Metallic steam pipe inadequately insulated
• Overstressed steam generator feeds water through steam pipe
• System condensate drain is block ed
• Extreme back-pressure in condensate hose
• Incorrect installation of conden sate hose
4.2 Operation
• Carry out visual checks periodically
• Further details according to the installation and operating instructions of
the humidifier
