Introduction

CAUTION: Servicing

Disconnect main power before any servicing.

Shut off pressurized steam supply and ensure steam pressure is safely relieved

before any servicing of pressurized steam components.

The electrical compartment contains high voltage components and wiring. Access

should be limited to authorized personnel only.

During and following operation of the humidifier, the steam and components in

contact with the steam such as the tank, blower pack, steam lines, steam

distributors, and condensate lines can become hot and can burn if touched.

Condair does not accept any liability for installations of humidity equipment

installed by unqualified personnel or the use of parts/components/equipment

that are not authorized or approved by Condair.

CAUTION: Electrical

All electrical work should be done according to local electrical code.

Electrical connection to be performed by a licensed electrician.

CAUTION: Plumbing / Steam Lines

Plumbing to be performed by a licensed plumber.

Pressurized steam line installation to be performed by a qualified installer.

Drain water from humidifier can be very hot. Do not drain to public sink.

All plumbing and pressurized steam supply line work should be done according to

local plumbing code.

CAUTION: Installation

Do not mount on hot surfaces

Do not mount in area where freezing can occur

Do not mount on vibrating surface

The Nortec SETC/P produces steam at atmospheric pressure no devices which

could

block steam output should be connected to the steam outlet.

Steam output lines must be installed so that no restriction can produce

backpressure in the humidifier.

Regardless of selecting On/Off or modulating control method, Condair humidifiers

must have a closed circuit across its On/Off security loop control terminal to

operate. Condair highly recommends the use of a high limit humidistat and an air

proving switch in series for this function.

Unit damage caused by water quality outside of the specified ranges is not

covered under warranty.

Before Installation

1Ensure that available voltage and phase corresponds with humidifier voltage and phase as

indicated on humidifier’s specification label.

2If steam supply is from a Medium or High Pressure boiler ensure supply steam line includes

a relief valve to prevent supply pressure from exceeding 15 psig.

3Ensure means for returning boiler steam condensate to boiler at atmospheric pressure are

available.

4Ensure sufficient clearances will be available as described in Location on page 11.

5Ensure steam lines can be routed to distributor SAM-e manifold or blower pack as described

in Steam Lines and Condensate Returns on page 17.

6Report any discrepancy immediately to the site engineer.
