5.5.3 Steam line and condensate
hose installation types
Installation type 1
Steam manifold is positioned more than
500 mm above device upper edge:
» Run steam hose to a height of 400
mm/16 inch minimum above the
steam humidfier and then to the
steam manifold with a continous
incline of 5 to 10 %.
» Feed condensate hose from steam
manifold with a decline into waste-
water pipe or drain.
» As a steam barrier, lay out a 200
mm/8 inch min. loop (s. schematic
representation below). Minimum
distance from steam manifold to
loop must be 500 mm/20 inch. Fill
loop with water prior to steam humi-
difier commissioning.
Installation type 2
Steam manifold is positioned less than
500 mm above or below device upper
edge:
In this arrangement the condensate hose
cannot be fed back to the steam humidifier.
» Run steam hose to a height of 400
mm/16 mm minimum above the
steam humidfier and then to the
steam manifold with a continous
decline of 5 to 10 %.
» Feed condensate hose to a waste-
water pipe/drain with a 200 mm/8
inch diameter loop as a steam bar-
rier. Minimum distance from steam
manifold to loop must be 500 mm/20
inch. Fill loop with water.
