Installation notes (continued)
Maximum capacity of dispersion tube with condensate drain:
– 1½" (DN40): 56.8 lbs/hr (25.8 kg/h)
– 2" (DN50): 85.2 lbs/hr (38.6 kg/h)
Orient dispersion tube with tubelets (steam orifices) pointing
up.
If mounting the humidifier above the level of dispersion tube,
see “Drip tee installation” on Page 15.
Table 19-1 lists hose kit sizes by humidifier model. Note that the
capacities of Models 30 and 34 require multiple tube assemblies
and cannot use a hose kit. For multiple tube assemblies, see
“Rapid-sorb,” beginning on Page 20.

Steam hose, tubing or pipe. Insulate tubing
and hard pipe to reduce steam loss. Do
not insulate steam hose. See Table 16-1 for
maximum piping lengths.
* Pitch steam hose, tubing, or pipe toward humidifier:
2"/ft (15%) when using steam hose
½"/ft (5%) when using 1½" tubing or pipe
¼"/ft (2%) when using 2" tubing or pipe
Dashed lines indicate provided by installer.
