because of scale formation it will no longer be possible for the humidifier to reach its full capacity. The
humidifier software monitors this condition and, when detected, will stop operating and alert the you
when the steam cylinder needs replacement.
Controls
After setting the desired relative humidity (RH) setpoint through the Condair HumiLife app, the RH
sensor (supplied) determines if the space requires more humidity.
The humidifier receives a humidity signal from the sensor, and if the sensed humidity is lower than the
desired setpoint (desired relative humidity), the humidifier will start producing steam.
Steam enters the space and increases the relative humidity. The sensor in the humidified space or
return air duct detects the humidity again and determines if the unit should continue producing steam.
Filling
Water flows into the fill cup. Water from the fill cup flows into the bottom of the cylinder through a hose
connected to the drain valve.
Note:
The cylinder is gravity fed from the fill cup. If backpressure from the steam line is too high it will
cause water to back up in the fill cup and flow down the overflow line to the drain.
The steam cylinder has two sensors; one high water level sensor; and a sensor for current draw. Under
normal circumstances, the inlet valve will deactivate when either the high water level sensor or the
current draw sensor is triggered.
If the measured amp draw is lower than the required amp draw, the inlet valve is kept closed and output
is reduced by letting the water level in the cylinder decrease by boiling and evaporation. This causes
the conductivity in the water to increase.
In situations where the current draw is too high, the humidifier will initiate a drain sequence to reduce
the conductivity, or fill the cylinder with more clean water to dilute it.
Drains
As steam is produced, minerals are left behind, increasing the conductivity of the water. The patented
auto adaptive cycle will monitor the water conductivity and perform drains to maintain the water at
optimal conductivity for peak performance.
The auto adaptive cycle ensures cylinder life is maximized. It does this by keeping the tightest control
and most efficient use of water during the entire cylinder life.
Steam Distribution
Steam generated by the humidifier may be introduced into the air by mounting a steam distributor tube
in a supply air duct.
Condensate Return
Insulating the steam line is one important way to reduce the amount of condensate formed in the steam
distribution system. Steam lines are sloped so that condensate does not collect in the lines and create a
restriction to steam flow. The condensate must be collected and removed from the system so that it does
not build up and leak into the duct. Condensate can be returned to the fill cup to reduce water waste or
can be fed to an external drain, or high-temperature condensate pump.
