HEALTH &
SAFETY
Neptronic has considered aspects of the design of their humidification systems to reduce as
much
as possible the risk of Legionnaires’ disease and other similar conditions, but it is
important that users are also aware of their responsibilities under Health & Safety regulations
in reducing the risk of legionellosis.
To prevent the growth of Legionella, users are required to:
Avoid water temperature that favours the growth of Legionella (20-45
˚C).
Avoid water stagnation.
Clean and disinfect the humidification system in accordance to Health & Safety
regulations and enclosed instructions.
Carry out a risk assessment of the water system supplying the humidifier by a
competent person, to ensure the water supply is of an acceptable quality
CORRECT USE
Neptronic® systems and products are designed only for humidification use.
Any other application is not considered as usage for the intended purpose. The manufacturer
cannot be made liable for any damage resulting from incorrect use.
ACCESS
The SKGE3 cabinet keys MUST never be left in the door locks, as this may cause
unauthorized access to live electrical parts. Always store keys centrally with a nominated
responsible person.
WATER
Neptronic® systems are designed to be used with tap, reverse osmosis, de mineralized or
partially softened water. On no account attempt to introduce any other fluids or chemicals into
the system without first consulting Neptronic or its authorized distributor.
Water supply must not exceed the max pressure of 4.8 bar or pressure limits laid out in the
specification and installation must comply with local regulations. Your attention is drawn to
your responsibilities as outlined in the Health & Safety regulations. The control of Legionella
bacteria in water systems and your SKGE3 steam humidifier must be included in the risk
assessment of the water system in your building as a whole. In particular, if the humidifier is
turned off for prolonged periods, you must ensure that the unit is drained and that stagnation
is avoided in pipe work supplying it.
A competent individual or organization must be appointed to carry out water tests. A wide
range of different tests are available to identify the presence of microbes in water, including
total viable count (TVC), temperature-range specific tests and identification of particular
species types including Legionella.
It is the responsibility of the person on whom the
statutory responsibility falls to determine the type and frequency of this and all other
controls and preventative measures outlined in this manual.
WARRANTY
Failure to install this humidifier as outlined in this manual may invalidate the warranty.
