BNB Ultrasonic Humidifier Installation, Operation & Maintenance Manual

2-2

The humidifier must be installed horizontally and level. Prepare hanging bolts for ceiling or brackets for wall (see
Figure 1). The distance from the humidifier to the ceiling should be a minimum of 18” and the distance to the wall
3” or more. For the installation mounting base dimensions, see “Layout Drawing of Humidifier” on page 7-1.

NOTE

Humidity control can only be achieved in a sealed room or if the room has vapor barriers installed. It is
recommended that walls, ceilings and floors be sealed to prevent migration of humidity.

2.3

Mounting/Placement

SATS ultrasonic humidifiers are designed for mounting to a flat surface. Ensure the base is capable of supporting the
weight of the unit. Weight estimates can be found on the installation drawing provided with your unit. Secure the
unit with fasteners (field supplied by others), so that it will not move during operation. Ensure the front edge of the
humidifier is not hanging over the edge of the support bracket.

2.4

Blow Angle Adapter

The blow angle adapter is provided to adjust air flow from the fan and direct mist out horizontally. During initial
operation, adjust the blow angle adapter according to Figure 3 to direct blown mist away from the ceiling and
towards the room.
