1.7 Laying the condensate hose
It is advisable to lay the condensate hose as near to the vertical
as possible and to feed the condensate either directly into an open
funnel or below the siphon.
If the steam-distribution pipe is fitted above the humidifier, the con-
densate can be fed back to the unit by placing the end of the hose in the
filling cup. In this instance, a small siphon should be formed with the
condensate hose.
If the condensate is drained off directly, it is advisable to feed back
the condensate hose separately. The end of the condensate hose should
be in the open air. If the end of the hose is submerged in water, the
condensate is prevented from draining away.
