SteamStik Almuminum Manifolds

Preliminary Procedure 

STEP 1: Check Shipment Against
Packing List.

All components are

listed on the packing slip. Report any
shortages 

immediately

. If the

humidifier or accessories have been
damaged in transit, notify us and file
claim with the transportation company. 

If your order covers more than one
unit, separate each complete unit.
Humidifier tagging and manifold
tagging will be the same as shown on
the packing list. Model, Serial Number,
Steam Pressure, Orifice and Orifice 

Restriction (if any) are on the metal
plate on the humidifier body.  Operator
for electric motor operated unit is
shipped separately but marked with
the serial number of the humidifier
with which it must be used. Be sure
serial numbers agree.

STEP 2: Spot Humidifier Locations.

Locate each humidifier according to
the engineer’s layout or as indicated
by your Armstrong Representative. If
you must locate the humidifiers
yourself, be sure to read and observe
the “Do’s and Don’ts” on the following
page. 

Manifold Installation

STEP 3: Cut Hole in Duct or Plenum
for Manifold.

Cut a 2” hole for each

manifold location.

STEP 4: Insert Manifold in Duct.

Outlet holes must point upstream into
air flow with 

all

SteamStik manifolds.

Where manifold is positioned
horizontally, use a spirit level.
Manifolds longer than one foot should
be supported. When supporting the
manifold on the far end allow for
manifold expansion and contraction of
1/2” - 1".

Continue installation with step 5
beginning on page 8.
