Theinstallationsiteofthesteamhumidierdependslargelyonthelocationofthesteamdistributor
(seechapter5.4).Toensure proper functioningofthesteamhumidierandtoobtain an optimal
efciency,thefollowingpointsmustbeconsideredandobservedwhenchoosingthelocationfor
thesteamhumidier:
– Installthesteamhumidiersothatthelength of the steam hose is kept as short as possible
(max. 4 m)andthattheminimum bend radius (R= 300 mm) and up-slope (20 %) or down-
slope (5 %)ofthesteamhoseisobserved(seechapter5.4.5).
