The advantages of steam humidification- Steam is easy to distribute and is absorbed by the air more quickly. Large quantity of moisture can be supplied from a small and leight-weight apparatus. Deposits of calcium, minerals etc in the water occur in the electrode container and do not come out into the room in the form of particles which settle on furniture, instruments, paper etc. There is no temperature drop as in the case of humidification by the atomization of cold water. Steam humidification is very efficient and not extravagant with water as in the case of nozzle humidification, which also causes nozzle blockage problems.

A steam humidifier is cheaper to buy than conventional evaporation and nozzle humidifiers. The air does not require any subsequent heating.

Design-STEAMATIC fully automatic steam humidifiers are made of components shown in the pictures here. Each unit is very easy to assemble and run in addition to be favourably designed from the viewpoint of servicing. Any part replacement can be carried out quickly and cheaply. The electric components are well separated from water in order to avoid flash-overs caused by moisture on cables etc.

Function- Steam is produced by injecting water into the electrode container where it comes into contact with and is heated up by the three electrodes fitted in the container. Water thus functions as a conductor and there is no current carried unless water is present. This feature means that it is impossible for the unit to boil dry. As the water level is allowed to rise, boiling occurs quickly and at a faster rate. The higher the water level on the electrodes, the greater the current and the greater the steam production. Variation concerning the water level and thereby the steam quantity is carried out according to the value set on the steam regulator. This form of control means a very flexible range concerning the quantity of steam. It is not necessary to fit larger units if the premises are extended and the moisture demand increases. Within the capacity range of the unit concerned, you always have a safeguard covering extensions and faulty calculations.

The steam production is controlled by one step up to four steps. As an alternative there is also modulating control which can be controlled by potentiometer hygrostat or by means of different kind of signals, which is to be connected to the system control panel. The steam is distributed through steam distributor to ventilation ducts, our free-blowing fan unit SMF or the Combi-humidifiers with the built in fan.

Electrode container (steam cylinder)-The container is drained automatically at regular intervals and is also easy to remove and clean when necessary. The electrodes are designed for long periods of use and are also easy to replace. These factors make the system very economical from viewpoint of maintenance. In case of problematic water conditions, the water must be specially treated. A suggestion concerning such water treatment is available on request.

Maintenance-In order to avoid interruptions in steam production, the electrode system in the humidifier must be cleaned and checked regulary. The intervals between such maintenance operations depend on the condition of the water and the loading on the system. An over-sized system always ensures a longer interval between maintenance operations. See more details about this in the separate servicing instructions.
