PURE Humidifier Co. “ECDDR” Maintenance Instructions

 

 

The “ECDDR” Series Electric Humidifier is practically maintenance

-

free.  However, the humidifier should 

be  inspected  and  placed  on  a  dedicated  maintenance  schedule  to  ensure  continued  operation  of  the 
humidifier and its accessories.  

PURE  Humidifier  Co.  recommends  that  the  following  items  be  in-

spected, and/or, cleaned on a minimum basis of twice a year.  

If excessive mineral buildup occurs, 

the maintenance schedule should be increased.

 

Inspect/Maintenance Item

 

 

Water makeup float valve

 

 
 
 
 

Low water float switch

   

 
 
 
 
 

Safety interlocks

 

(air flow, high

-

limit)

 

 

Immersion heaters

 

 
 
 

Humidifier cover/tank

 

 
 
 
 
 
 

Flexible hose

 

 

Procedure to Follow

 

 

Check to make sure the fill valve is operating 
properly.  If the valve appears to continually fill, 
check the valve adjustment or valve seat and seal 
(see Troubleshooting instructions).

 

 

Check to make sure the switch will shut the 
humidifier off when the water level drops too low.  
Open the drain valve to allow water to drain out for 
checking purposes.  Make sure to reset the drain 
valve after inspection is completed.

 

 

Check to make sure the safety interlocks (airflow, 
high

-

limit, etc.) will shut down the humidifier.

 

 

Verify the correct amperage is being drawn by the 
heating element.  Reference the wiring diagram 
for correct amperage.

 

 

Inspect for any leaks.  Repair as required.  
Remove the heater assembly and remove mineral 
deposits from floor of the humidifier reservoir.  If 
excessive mineral buildup is found, the cover may 
need to be removed to facilitate complete cleaning 
of the humidifier.

 

 

Inspect for cracks or leaks.  It is normal for the 
hose to become hard and develop a “set”.

 

Maintenance & Cleaning Instructions 

 

Cleaning Instructions

 

 

All humidifier tanks should be cleaned manually from the reservoir cover.  Turn off the water supply, 
disconnect  controls  by  unplugging  the  molex  in  the  small  octagon  box,  disconnect  power  wire  from 
contactor and remove conduit connection from cabinet, disconnect all the hose connections from the 
tank and slide the tank out of the cabinet.  Remove all loose solids with a wet vacuum, stainless steel 
brush,  scouring  pad,  putty  knife  and/or  bucket.    Heaters  should  also  be  cleaned  and  loose  buildup 
removed by hand (if applicable).  After removal of solids and replacing the cover you may wish to add 
a  de

-

scaling  solution.    DO  NOT  use  Hydrochloric  acid

-

based  de

-

scalers;  this  will  corrode  stainless 

steel.  PURE Humidifier Co. recommends the use of a vinegar, citric acid, diluted phosphoric acid or 
diluted nitric acid

-

based cleaner.  Follow all precautions on the cleaner packaging.  Some cleaners will 

give off overwhelming and noxious odors, so make sure there is proper ventilation in the working area 
and  the  steam  outlet  pipe  is  removed  so  that  fumes  are  not  spread  throughout  the  building.    After 
cleaning the tank, flush the tank multiple times to remove any remaining acid.  Drain tank completely 
and  allow  the  tank  to  air  dry  for  a  few  hours.    This  will  ensure  that  the  outer  protective  layer  of  the 
stainless steel will passivate and ensure corrosion resistance
