The following additional notes should be observed:
– The minimum internal diameter of the steam line (diameter depend-
ent on the steam humidier) should be applied over the whole length of
the piping.
– Use exclusively copper pipe or stainless steel (min. DIN 1.4301).
– To minimize the condensate formation (=loss), the steam pipes must
be insulated.
– The minimum bend radius for solid pipes is 5 x internal diameter.
– Connection of the steam pipes to the steam distribution pipe and steam
humidier is effected by means of short lengths of steam hose secured
with hose clamps.
– Important! Allowance must be made for a pressure loss of 10 mm
water column (approx. 100 Pa) per meter length or per 90° bend.
