Accessory
Description
External condensate cooling
Self-actuated and electric condensate waste water coolers are used to reduce waste water
temperatures to below 140 °F (60 °C) before it is discharged into drains.
Steam distributor
Steam distributors are used for adding steam into ventilation ducts. They are available in
three different steam capacities and various lengths to suit duct dimensions.
Refer to Steam Distributor Installation Manual (Condair document 2556592) for additional
details and part numbers.
SAM-e and Mini SAM-e
distribution manifolds
The SAM-e distribution manifolds are used for adding steam into ventilation ducts larger than
24 in (6 cm) where either higher steam capacity or short absorption distance is required. The
Mini SAM-e is available in dimensions under 24 in (61 cm). They are available in a range of
sizes and steam capacities to match duct and humidifier requirements.
Refer to SAM-e Engineering Manual (Condair document 1503529) for additional details and
part numbers.
Remote blower pack
Blower packs are used for direct humidification of the conditioned environment. Blower
packs are capable of distributing up to 100 lb/h (45 kg/h), should be selected to match or
exceed humidifier capacity.
Refer to Blower Pack Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual (Condair document
2582277) for additional details.

Outdoor temperature sensors Provides automatic humidistat setpoint reduction to prevent condensation on windows/sur-
faces adjacent to outdoor air. Refer to
"Outdoor Temperature Setback" on page 44
details.
2520263 – Duct-mounted temperature sensor
2553858 – Outdoor mounted temperature sensor
Humidity transducers
Condair offers a range of digital humidity sensors for duct and wall-mounting for use with
control and high limit applications. Refer to
.
Air proving switch
Provides a mechanical differential pressure switch to enable humidifier operation when
there is airflow through the ventilation ducts. Adjustable for pressures 0.05-12 in H2O (0.01-
2.99 kPa). Refer to
"Air Proving Switch" on page 43
Steam line reducers
Provides a means of adapting steam line diameters to match the diameter of the steam
distributor.
1507846 – Steam line reducer (1-3/4 in to 7/8 in) copper
1508165 – Steam line reducer (1-3/4 in to 7/8 in) stainless steel
Condair flexible steam and
condensate hose
Steam hoses can be used as steam distribution lines or as couplers between copper or
stainless steel steam distribution lines. When used for steam distribution the maximum rec-
ommended hose length is 10 ft (3 m). Steam hose is available in two sizes.
Condensate hose can be used for draining condensate, or coupling to copper or stainless
steel condensate lines.
1328810 – Steam hose (7/8 in I.D.) per foot (30 cm)
1328820 – Steam hose (1-3/4 in I.D.) per foot (30 cm)
1328840 – Condensate hose (3/8 in I.D.) per foot (30 cm)
Large/small condensate trap
tee
Condensate trap tee must be used to remove condensate that forms in steam distribution
lines. Condair offers tees to match large and small steam lines. Offered in Copper only.
1329634 – Condensate trap tee – small (7/8 × 7/8 × 3/8 in)
1329635 – Condensate trap tee – large (1-3/4 × 1-3/4 × 3/8 in)
In-line water filter and re-
placement filter elements
In-line water filter to remove sediments in the supply water that can obstruct the fill valve
strainer or drain fittings.
1329505 – In-line water filter (5 micron)
1329561 – Replacement filter cartridge (1 micron)
1329506 – Replacement filter cartridge (5 micron)
