5.6 Installation of the steam pipe
The humidifier must be connected to the distributor using a pipe suitable for this purpose, such as the STULZ flexible pipe.
The use of unsuitable tubing may cause weakening and cracking and consequently steam leaks. The layout of the pipe
must be such as to avoid the accumulation of con densate, with consequent noise (gurgling) and reduction in efficiency; the
path of the pipe must exploit gravity to drain the condensed steam back to the boiler or to the distributor. Pockets or traps
must thus be avoided, in that the condensate may be trapped; attention should also be paid to avoid choking the pipe due
to sharp bends or twisting (see Fig. 5.6.1).

Using screw clamps, tightly fasten the end of
the pipe to the humidifier and steam distri-
butor fittings, so that they do not slide off due
to the effect of the temperature.
