The installation site of the steam humidier depends largely on the location
of the steam distributor (see chapter 5.4). To ensure proper functioning
of the steam humidier and to obtain an optimal efciency, the following
points must be considered and observed when choosing the location for
the steam humidier:
– Install the steam humidier 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 (20 %) or down-slope (5 %) of the steam
hose is observed (see chapter 5.4.5).
– The steam humidiers Nordmann ES4 are designed for wallmount-
ing. Make sure that the construction (wall, pillar, oormounted console,
etc.) to which the humidiers are to be mounted, offers a sufciently
high load-bearing capacity (take notice of the weight information
found in the dimensions and weights table above), and is suitable for
the installation.
CAUTION!
Do not mount the steam humidier directly to the ventilation duct
(insufcient stability).
– The back panel of the Nordmann ES4 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 heatsensitive material.
– Install the steam humidier in such a manner that it is freely accessible
with sufcient space available for maintenance purposes (refer to the
above illustration for minimum distances).
– The Nordmann ES4 is protected according to IP20. Make sure the units
are installed in a dripproof location and the admissible ambient condi-
tions are complied with.
– The steam humidier Nordmann ES4 may only be installed in rooms
with a oor drain.
CAUTION!
If for some reason the Nordmann ES4 must be installed in a location
without oor drain, it is mandatory to provide a leakage monitoring
device to safely interrupt the water supply in case of leakage.
– When xing the Nordmann ES4 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 Nordmann ES4 is designed for installation and operation within
buildings (admissible temperature range see chapter 10.1). For outdoor
operation the Nordmann ES4 must be placed in a weather protective
housing. If ambient temperatures near or below the freezing point have
to be expected, the protective housing must equipped with a thermostat
controlled heating of sufcient capacity. The water supply pipe must be
equipped with a traceheating and must be insulated up to the protective
housing.
