A.
NHTC COMPONENTS
(1) Refer to Figures 1 and 2 when reading Table 1.
B.
HUMIDIFIER START-UP
(1) Figure 3 describes the method for powering up a humidifier and the cautions to take.
C.
BASIC STEAM PRODUCTION METHOD
(1) Figure 6 describes the method the NH Series humidifier uses to produce pure clean
steam. The NORTEC NH electrode steam humidifier uses NORTEC’s patented Auto-
Adaptive cycle to calculate drains to maintain optimal performance. Figure 4 Drain Rate
vs Water Conductivity depicts an indication of drain amounts.
D.
CYLINDER LIFE
(1) The output of all NH Series humidifiers is pure, clean steam; minerals originally in the
incoming water are left behind. These minerals will eventually coat the cylinder
electrodes. Therefore, the mineral content of the incoming water, the unit running time
and output capacity setting ultimately determine cylinder life. NORTEC’s cylinder life is
up to 2,000 hours of operation. Water chemistry and capacity can affect cylinder life.
(See Figure 5.) See Table 4 to identify the message which indicates when the cylinder
is at the end of its life.
