Electrode Steam Humidifier MiniSteam PDF Installation and Operatioan Manual

HygroMatik typically defines “normal” as feed water with a conductivity between 200 and 500 µS/ cm (microSiemens per centimeter) at 15° C.
Some areas, however, are supplied with tap water whose quality is outside the parameters specified by HygroMatik. If the HygroMatik bemis humidifier control is not adjusted correctly in these areas, the unit cannot perform optimally. For example, the electrodes could wear out particularly quickly or the steam production could be too low.

The operational parameters set by HygroMatik in the factory are intended for normal tap water. However, they can very easily be reprogrammed to fit the special requirements of a particular area. In addition, it is possible to install a plastic star in the cylinder in order to increase the life
span of the electrodes or to provide a flushing mechanism to extend maintenance intervals. Because of this you should monitor your new unit during initial operation. Make sure that it has been properly installed and is operating to your satisfaction. Consult your HygroMatik specialists. We will test the quality of your water and advise you on installation and initial operation. Your HygroMatik steam humidifier will be carefully adapted to
your particular application.

Warning, Hazardous Voltage: All work to be performed by trained personnel only. All electrical installation and servicing of the electrical components of this unit to be performed by qualified electricians only. Disconnect power supply before installation and servicing!

4.1 Mode of Operation
The HygroMatik steam humidifier filters utilizes the conductivity normally present in tap water for steam production. Electrodes inside an enclosed steam cylinder are immersed directly into the tap water. They are connected 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 amperage is a function of the available voltage, the immersed electrode surface area, the average distance between the electrodes and the water conductivity. The steam output of the humidifier is determined by electric power usage, which is regulated by increasing or decreasing the immersed surface area of the electrodes. Concurrently, a self-regulating control keeps conductivity within a specified range. The steam produced has a temperature of about 100°C with minimal excess pressure (“pressureless steam”). It is free of minerals and largely germ-free. Mineral deposits typically remain behind in the cylinder.

4.2 Installation and Operation
When the controller specifies an increase in humidity, the main contactor is switched on and the electrodes (48) are supplied with power. The water inlet solenoid valve (25) feeds water into the steam cylinder (16+19). As soon as the electrodes are immersed, the current begins to
flow. The water is now heated. When the pre-selected output is reached, the control turns off the solenoid valve and interrupts the water supply.
After a short heating up period, the water between the electrodes begins to boil and vaporize. The vaporization lowers the water level (W) in the steam cylinder, reducing the output provided. The inlet solenoid valve, equipped with a fine mesh filter, intermittently admits fresh water. Humidifier power usage is continuously monitored. With a cold start-up, the nominal current increases to 125% in order to achieve quick-start output parameters. This activates the elec- tronic overflow limiter which causes a partial draining of the cylinder. This reduces the immersed surface area of the electrodes, lowering power usage.
