Corrective Drain Length
This page is where the Corrective Drain Length is
set. This value represents how much water should be
drained from the cylinder when the humidifier senses a
corrective drain is needed. As water boils from the humidifier,
minerals increase in the cylinder causing the water to get
more conductive. Increasing the length of the drain flushes
more conductive material from the humidifier, decreasing
the water conductivity. The input here is a percentage value.
To set the Corrective Drain Length to drain 20% of the
cylinder during a corrective drain, input 020. To drain all the
tank, input 100. 030 is the default value, and only multiples
of 10 between 20 and 100 can be entered.
There are a few operational options that do not need
separate pages, and therefore are only enabled/disabled
via the ON/OFF Buttons on the main “Settings” menu page.
Their functionality is described as follows:
The
Drain Valve Pulse
option is enabled by default.
This option allows the drain valve to pulse when the
humidifier executes a corrective drain. This actuates the water
within the drain piping, allowing for minerals buildup to be
discharged more easily. Enabling this option will make the
unit noisier whenever a corrective drain is executed.
The
72-Hour Drain
is disabled by default. This option,
when enabled, allows the humidifier to drain the cylinder
completely after 72 hours of idle operation.
The
LCD Auto-Dim
is disabled by default. This option,
when enabled, will automatically turn off the backlight of the
LCD after 15 minutes of idleness. This feature can save on
energy consumed.
The
Steam Output Units
is disabled or set to “Lb.” by
default. This option, when set to “Kg.”, will turn the steam
readout on home page into Kg./Hr .instead of Lb./Hr.

CarnesLink Communication Protocol Setup
This page is where you can select and setup the
communication protocol you will be using with your Building
Management System (BMS) for full external monitoring
capabilities. (See the CarnesLink Communication Protocol
Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual for further
information.)
Default Settings
Selecting Default Settings on the settings page will allow
for the restoring of factory default settings. The factory
settings will be set to the following:
Restoring default settings can be helpful when trouble-
shooting an oddly behaving humidifier. Although some
settings will stay visible on their respective screens after
applying a factory reset, it is recommended to take note
of all adjustments previously applied as some may be
important for efficient operation given specific water
conditions.
