Steam Bath - Temperature Control
With any steam bath, a temperature sensor must be installed in the
cabin. The temperature sensor measures the
temperature
in the
steam bath and is connected to the steam generator.
The DS-Comfort or DS-Comfort Plus controls the HygroMatik steam
generator according to the temperature reading. The
relative humid-
ity
is not measured since it is
always 100%
following the heat-up
phase. In addition, depending on your order preference, you can con-
nect an essence injector, light and fan to the steam generator.
The sample diagram below shows how the DS-Control functions:
Parameters G1 to G4 + G13 (may only be modified in operating mode)
are programmed as follows:
Hysteresis Temperature Controller (G1) =
1K
Hysteresis Steam Bath Exhaust Fan (G3) = 1K
Hysteresis Steam Bath Supply Fan (G13) = 1K
Steam Bath Temperature Set Value (G2) =
45°C
If the temperature in the steam bath falls below
45°C
, an adjustment is
made by increasing steam production.
If the temperature in the steam bath rises above
46°C
, steam produc-
tion is shut off with 1-step operation or adjusted downwards with con-
tinuous operation.
The release point for the steam generator is determined as follows:
Steam Bath °C Set Value (G2)+Hysteresis °C-Controller (G1) =
45°C+1K = 46°C.
If the temperature in the steam bath rises above the programmed tem-
perature set value of 45°C, the DS-Control activates the steam bath
exhaust fan. The control switches off the exhaust fan below 44°C. The
release point for the steam bath exhaust fan is determined as follows:
Steam Bath °C Set Value (G2) -
Hysteresis °C Steam Bath Exhaust Fan (G3) =
45°C - 1K = 44°C
The Parameter “Steam Bath Exhaust Fan” (D1) must be programmed
to automatic.
Steam is only produced as long as the temperature in the steam bath
remains below the “set temperature value.” If the temperature in the
steam bath remains above the “set temperature value” for a long
period of time, resulting in this case in
no visible steam
production,
this could be due to:
•
excessively high heat supply from an additional source, e.g.
from heated benches.
•
a well-insulated steam bath
•
Air flow in the steam bath is facilitated by a steam bath exhaust fan,
causing the temperature in the steam bath to fall more quickly.
Renewed steam production compensates for the drop in temperature.
In this way, the fan ensures constant, stable steam production - with
visible steam in the cabin.
