Determination of steam absorption distance
Determination of the absorption distance “B
N
” depends on various factors.
For simple determination of the absorption distance “B
N
” the table can be
used. The nominal values obtained from the table re fer to an air inlet tem-
perature of 10 °C to 30 °C. The result must be compared with the actual
steam absorption distance or with the minimum spacings to be observed.

Notes on installation
Before installation check that the correct MultiPipe system is used and
that the system is in accord ance with the type and steam out put on the
specification label.
The MultiPipe is suitable for instal lation in air ducts or air-conditioning units.
For this purpose the tem plates supplied are attached to the ventilation duct
spaced according to the collectors. The duct plate is cut out round. The con-
nection side of the pre-fitted system is inserted from inside through these
holes. The connector pieces are then fit ted on the pipes from outside and
screwed to the duct wall. The col lector pipes should be aligned hor izontally
and secured at the end on the duct wall.
For large systems or in special cas es, where this type of installation is not
possible, the collector pipes can be fitted individually from out side. The noz-
zle tubes are then in serted in the collectors in the air duct and secured with
the pipe clamps and O-rings. Suitable pliers are required for the installation.
All parts are supplied loose for this case if required.
Then install the steam and condensate hoses according to the instructions
in the installation and operating instructions of the humidifier. It is advisable
to drain the con densate separately and not return it to the humidifier owing
to the in creased volume.
