4. Functional Description and
Device Composition
4.1 Mode of Action
Making use of the frictional heat caused
by current flow in a water tank
The HygroMatik humidifier utilizes the con-
ductivity normally present in tap water for
steam production. Electrodes inside an
enclosed steam cylinder are immersed
directly into the tap water. They are con-
nected to the alternating current.
The conductivity of the water generates an
electric current between the electrodes.
In this way, the electric power supplied is
converted directly into heat without energy
loss.
The steam produced has a temperature of
about 100°C (212°F) with minimal excess
pressure ("pressureless steam"). It is largely
free of minerals and germ-free. Mineral
deposits typically remain behind in the cylin-
der.
4.2 Mechanical construction
The MiniSteam humidifiers are designed for
wall mounting. For maintainance purposes,
the steam cylinders are separable in the mid-
dle.
