WARNING!

Disconnect electrical power before installing supply wiring. Contact with

energized circuits can cause severe personal injury or death as a result

of electrical shock.

This product must be installed by qualiﬁed HVAC and electrical

contractors and in compliance with local, state, federal, and governing

codes. Improper installation can cause property damage, severe

personal injury, or death as a result of electric shock, burns, and/or ﬁre.

The humidiﬁer tank, dispersion assembly, and all connected hose or

piping can contain or discharge hot steam and/or hot water at 212 °F

(100 °C). Discharged steam is not visible. Contact with hot surfaces,

discharged hot water, or air into which steam has been discharged can

cause severe personal injury.

Failure to follow the instructions in this manual can cause moisture to

accumulate, which can cause bacteria and mold growth or dripping

water into building spaces. Dripping water can cause property damage;

bacteria and mold growth can cause illness.

Supply water pressure greater than 80 psi (550 kPa) can cause the

humidiﬁer to overﬂow.

Standard water models (Model VLC)

Vaporstream VLC humidifiers use electricity to heat potable or

softened fill water into steam for humidification. A conductivity

probe monitors water level, requiring water conductivity to be at

least 100 μS/cm to operate properly. Therefore, VLC models will

not operate with demineralized water. For demineralized water

operation (using deionized or reverse osmosis treated water), use

VLDI model humidifiers (described on next page).

Deionized water models (Model VLDI)

Vaporstream VLDI humidifiers use electricity to heat

deionized (DI) or reverse osmosis (RO) fill water into steam for

humidification. VLDI models control water level using a float valve

with low water cutoff switch.

VLDI models are virtually maintenance-free and require very little

or no downtime.

Systems using tap or softened water control

water levels electronically using a three-rod

probe. The controller responds with the

above actions when the water level reaches

each rod.

Notes:

* If using an optional SDU or Area-type™ fan unit for dispersion, run a neutral line with 208V/240V/single-phase and 208V/three-phase power supply lines to

provide a 120V circuit for the fan. With all other power supply voltages (other than 120V), provide a separate 120V circuit for the fan, or order from DRI-STEEM a

transformer installed in the control cabinet.

** Heater stage identiﬁes the number of contactors.

*** Three-phase power supply connection. All heater loads are wired Delta.

† Total humidiﬁer load = load to meet design conditions + load to compensate for steam loss from the dispersion assembly and interconnecting piping. If

total humidiﬁer load is more than the humidiﬁer's maximum capacity, design conditions will not be met. For steam loss data see the DRI-STEEM Design Guide

available for downloading and printing at www.dristeem.com

Mounting methods

To ensure that the water level control system works properly, the

tank must be mounted level side to side and front to back.

For overhead installations, install a drip pan to prevent possible

water damage (see drawing on the next page).

Support legs and wall brackets are not available for single-heater

models (VLC/VLDI models 2-1, 3-1, 4-1, and 5-1). These models

must be mounted using a trapeze or within an outdoor enclosure.

For information about mounting with an outdoor enclosure, see

Pages 14-22.

The mounting methods described in this manual are the only

options available to maintain compliance to the UL 998 standard;

alternate mounting methods will compromise the humidifier’s CE,

ETL, and C-ETL approvals.

Important:

Installation must comply with governing

codes.
