To start up your humidifier, go to the Start-up Checklist in your
humidifier’s Installation, Operation, and Maintenance manual.
Staging multiple XT humidifiers
Up to four XT electrode steam humidifiers can be staged to
operate in sequence. In a sequenced application, one control input
signal is divided by user-selectable settings among the humidifiers
connected in sequence. See the Vapor-logic4 board connection
points in Figure 37-1.
