25Mounting and installation work
The installation site of the steam generator depends largely on the location of the steam distributor
(see chapter 5.4). To ensure proper functioning of the steam generator and to obtain an optimal
efciency, the following points must be considered and observed when choosing the location for the
steam generator:
– Install the steam generator so that the length of the steam hose is kept as short as possible (max.
4 m) and that the minimum bend radius (R= 300 mm) and up-slope and/or down-slope of 15
%/8.5° of the steam hose is observed (see chapter 5.4.3).
– The steam generators Condair Sigma are designed for wall-mounting. Make sure that the construc-
tion (wall, pillar, oor-mounted console, etc.) to which the humidiers are to be mounted, offers a
sufcientlyhighload-bearingcapacity (take notice of the weight information found in the dimen-
sions and weights table above), and is suitable for the installation.
– The back panel of the Condair Sigma is retaining heat during operation (max. surface temperature
of the metal housing approx. 60 - 70 °C). Make sure, therefore, that the construction (wall, pillar,
etc.) to which the units are to be mounted, does not consist of heat-sensitive material.
– Install the steam generator in such a manner that it is freely accessible with sufcient space avail-
able for maintenance purposes (refer to the above illustration for minimum distances).
– The Condair Sigma is protected according to IP20. Make sure the units are installed in a drip-proof
location and the admissible ambient conditions are complied with.
– The steam generator Condair Sigma may only be installed in rooms with a oor drain.
CAUTION!
If for some reason the Condair Sigma must be installed in a location without oor drain, it is manda-
tory to provide a leakage monitoring device to safely interrupt the water supply in case of leakage.
– When xing the Condair Sigma use onlythexingmaterialssuppliedwiththeunit. If xing with
the materials supplied is not possible in your particular case, select a method of xing that is of
similar stability.
– The Condair Sigma is designed for installation and operation within buildings (admissible temperature
range see chapter 10.1).
