Jumper G / More Frequent Partial Blow-Down (+100%)
If the jumper is jumpered, the “more frequent partial blow-down
(+100%)” function is active.
The control periodically performs a partial draining of the cylinder (par-
tial blow-down) in order to dilute the cylinder water; salt concentrates in
it during routine operation because only pure water is evaporated.
If highly conductive feed water is used ( = higher salt content), it may
be advisable to perform partial blow-downs more often in order to mini-
mize electrode corrosion or remove more calcium build-up.
Before modifying this parameter, please consult with HygroMatik.
Jumper H / Full Blow-Down Switched Off
If this jumper is jumpered, the “full blow-down switched off” function is
active.
In addition to partial cylinder drainage (partial blow-down, see above),
the control also performs a complete blow-down every 5-8 days of con-
tinuous operation.
If feed water with very low conductivity is used (= very low salt con-
tent), it may be advisable to deactivate the complete blow-down to
ensure that the humidifier always attains nominal steam output effi-
ciently (only applies to electrode steam humidifiers).
Before modifying this parameter, please consult with HygroMatik.
Jumper F+G+H / Fully Demineralized Feed Water
(this function is only valid for heater element humidifiers of Type Heat-
erLine)
If all three jumper are jumpered, the “fully demineralized feed water”
function is active.
No partial and total cylinder blow-downs are necessary when using
fully demineralized water. The “fully demineralized water” function pre-
vents blow-downs.
This function should not be activated when using electrode steam
humidifiers of Type HyLine, CompactLine or MiniSteam.
