3.4 Functional description
The steam humidifier Condair CP3 is a pressureless steam generator that utilizes an electrode heating. The steam humidifier Condair CP3 is designed for air humidification via a steam distributor
(steam distribution pipe, ventilation unit or steam distribution system OptiSorp).
Steam generation
Any time steam is requested, the electrodes are supplied with voltage via main contactor. Simultaneously, the inlet valve opens and water enters the steam cylinder from the bottom via water cup and supply line. As soon as the electrodes come in contact with the water, current begins to flow between the electrodes, eventually heating and evaporating the water. The more the electrode surface is exposed to water, the higher is the current consumption and thus the steam capacity.
Upon reaching the requested steam capacity, the inlet valve closes. If the steam generation decreases below a certain percentage of the required capacity, due to lowering of the water level (e.g. because of the evaporation process or drainage), the inlet valve opens until the required capacity is available again.
If the required steam capacity is lower than the actual output, the inlet valve is closed until the desired capacity is achieved by lowering of the water level (evaporation process).
Level monitoring
A sensor provided in the steam cylinder cover detects when the water level gets too high. The moment the sensor comes in contact with water, the inlet valve closes.
Drainage
As a result of the evaporation process, the conductivity of the water increases due to an escalating mineral concentration. Eventually, an inadmissibly high current consumption would take place if this concentration process were permitted to continue. To prevent this concentration from reaching a value, unsuitably high for the operation, a certain amount of water is perio dically drained from the cylinder and replaced by fresh water.
Control
The steam production can be controlled steplessly via the internal or an external continuous controller or with an On/Off control via an external humidistat.

4 Notes for the planning engineer
4.1 Selecting the unit version
To select the unit version the following planning steps are required:
1. Calculating the required maximum steam capacity according chapter 4.1.1
2. Selecting the unit version from the table in chapter 4.1.2
4.1.1 Calculating the maximum required steam capacity
The maximum required steam capacity must be calculated based on one of the following formulas:

Important notes:
– The required maximum steam capacity depends on the specific application and the installation.
The calculated steam capacity based on the above formulas, the h,x diagram and the condition of the air to be humidified does not consider any steam loss (e.g. due to condensation in the steam hoses and the steam distributors), any heat loss of the unit as well as any absorption or release of humidity of materials located in the room being humidi fied.
In addition, the calculated steam capacity does not consider any losses caused by the draining rate depending on the water quality as well as any losses occur if the steam humidifier is operated on a mains circuit with a ground fault circuit interrupter.
The total amount of losses depends on the entire system and must be taken into consideration when calculating the required steam capacity. If you have any questions regarding the calculation of the steam capacity please contact your Condair supplier.
– For systems where the max. required steam capacity varies extensively (e.g. for test facilities or for systems with variable air volume flow, etc.), please contact your Condair supplier.

The installation site of the steam humidifier depends largely on the location of the steam distributor
(see chapter 5.3). To ensure proper functioning of the steam humidifier and to obtain an optimal
efficiency, the following points must be considered and observed when choosing the location for the steam humidifier:
– Install the steam humidifier so that the
length of the steam hose is kept as short as possible
( max. 4 m) and that the minimum bend radius (R= 300 mm) and up-slope (20 %) or down-
slope (5 %) of the steam hose is observed (see chapter 5.3.5).
– The steam humidifiers Condair CP3 are designed for wall-mounting. Make sure that the construction (wall, pillar, floor-mounted console, etc.) to which the humidifiers are to be mounted, offers a sufficiently high load-bearing capacity (take notice of the weight information found in the dimension sand weights table above), and is suitable for the installation.
CAUTION!
Do not mount the steam humidifier directly to the ventilation duct (insufficient stability).
– The back panel of the Condair CP3 is retaining heat during operation (max. surface temperature of the metal housing approx. 60 - 70 °C). Make sure, therefore, that the construction (wall, pillar, etc.) to which the units are to be mounted, does not consist of heat-sensitive material.
– Install the steam humidifier in such a manner that it is freely accessible with sufficient space available for maintenance purposes (refer to the above illustration for minimum distances).
– The Condair CP3 is protected according to IP20. Make sure the units are installed in a drip-proof location and the admissible ambient conditions are complied with.
– The steam humidifier Condair CP3 may only be installed in rooms with a floor drain.
CAUTION!
If for some reason the Condair CP3 must be installed in a location without floor drain, it is mandatory to provide a leakage monitoring device to safely interrupt the water supply in case of leakage.
– When fixing the Condair CP3 use only the fixing materials supplied with the unit. If fixing with the materials supplied is not possible in your particular case, select a method of fixing that is of similar stability.
– The Condair CP3 is designed for installation and operation within buildings (admissible temperature range see chapter 10.1). For outdoor operation the Condair CP3 must be placed in a weather protective housing. If ambient temperatures near or below the freezing point have to be expected, the protective housing must equipped with a thermostat controlled heating of sufficient capacity. The water supply pipe must be equipped with a trace-heating and must be insulated up to the protective housing. Furthermore the special notes regarding the operation at ambient temperatures ≤ 0°C must be observed (see chapter 6.3.2).

5.3.2 Positioning and mounting of the steam distribution pipes
The location for the steam distribution pipes should be determined at the time of dimensioning the air conditioning system. Please note the following instructions to ensure proper humidification of the duct air.
Calculating the humidification distance
The water vapour, emitting from the steam distribution pipes, requires a certain distance to be absorbed by the ambient air so that it is no longer visible as steam. This distance is referred to as
humidification distance “B
N
” and serves as a basis for the determination of the minimum distances from the upstream components in the system.
Humidification distance B
N
Expansion and mixing zone
φ1: Supply air humidity before humidification
φ2: Supply air humidity after humidification
The calculation of the humidification distance “B estimation of the humidification distance “B
N
” is dependent on several factors. For a rough
N
”, the following table is useful. Recommended standard values listed in this table are based on a supply-air temperature range of 15 °C to 30 °C. The values given in bold type only apply to steam distribution pipes 41-..., 61-... and 81-..., the values in

Note: If the humidification distance has to be reduced for technical reasons, the amount of steam per basic unit must be divided between
two steam distribution pipes or the steam distribution
system OptiSorp must be used. If this is the case, contact your Condair supplier.
Minimum distances to be observed
To prevent the water vapour, that is emitting from the steam distribution pipe, from condensing on downstream system components, a minimum distance to the steam distribution pipe must be observed
(depends on the humidification distance “B

Installation notes and dimensions
The steam distribution pipes are designed for either horizontal installation (on the duct wall) or, with accessories, for vertical installation (in the duct floor). The outlet orifices should always point
upwards and at right angles to the airflow.
If possible, the steam distribution pipes should be installed on the pressure side of the duct (max.
duct pressure 1500 Pa). If the steam distribution pipes are installed on the suction side of the duct, the maximum vacuum must not exceed 800 Pa.
Select a location for the installation, tailored to suit your duct (see the following illustrations) and position the steam distribution pipes in the duct so that a uniform distribution of steam is achieved.

Guidelines for dimensioning the ventilation ducts
– To facilitate the installation of the steam distribution pipes and for control purposes, a sufficiently sized control opening should be planned.
– Within the range of the humidification distance, the ventilation duct should be waterproofed.
– Air ducts passing through cold rooms should be insulated to prevent the humidified air from condensing along the duct wall.
– Poor airflow conditions within the air duct (e.g. caused by obstacles, tight bends, etc.) can lead to condensation of the humidified air.
– Steam distribution pipes must not be mounted to round ducts.
If you have questions relating to the dimensioning of ventilation ducts in combination with steam humidifiers Condair CP3, contact your Condair supplier.

Note: The minimum spaces in the table apply for a room atmosphere of 15 °C and max. 60 %rh. For lower temperatures and/or higher humidity the values should be adjusted accordingly
Note: In order to achieve a uniform distribution of the humidity within the room, additional factors such as the room size, the room height, etc., must be taken into consideration besides observing the minimum distances. If you have questions concerning the direct room humidification, please contact your Condair supplier.
Further information is provided in the separate installation and operating instructions for the fan unit.
5.3.5 Installing the steam hose
Important! Use original Condair steam hose exclusively. Other types of steam hoses can cause undesired operational malfunctions.
Instructions for the hose layout
The hose layout depends on the position of the steam distribution pipe:
– Steam distribution pipe is mounted more than 300 mm above the top edge of the humidifier:
35 min. 5 %

Initially, lead the steam hose with an
upslope of at least 20% over a minimum height of 300
mm, then lead the hose with a minimum upslope of 20% and/or a minimum downslope of
5% to the steam distribution pipe.
– Steam distribution pipe is mounted less than 300 mm above the top edge of the humidifier: min. 5 % min. 20 % min. 5 % min. 20 %

Initially, the steam hose is led with an
upslope of at least 20 % over a minimum height of 300
mm above the top edge of the humidifier and then down to the steam distribution pipe with a
minimum slope of 5 %.
– The steam hose should be kept as short as possible ( max. 4 m) while observing the minimum
bend radius of 300 mm. Important! Allowance must be made for a pressure loss of 10 mm
water column (approx. 100 Pa) per meter steam hose.
Note: If your particular installation exceeds the maximum steam hose length of 4 m contact your
Condair representative. In any case, steam hoses longer than 4 m must be insulated in their entire length.
– Reductions in the cross section such as kinks should be avoided throughout the entire length of the hose. The installation of a stop cock in the steam hose is not permissible.
36
– Steam hoses must be prevented from sagging (condensate pockets); if necessary, support with pipe clamps, trough, or wall brackets, or install a condensate drain in the steam hose.
– Important! When deciding on the length and layout of the hose, it should be noted that the steam hose may become somewhat shorter with progressive ageing.
Securing the hose
The steam hose must be secured to the steam distribution pipe and humidi fier steam outlet by means of hose clamps.
Caution! Do not overtighten the hose clamp on the steam connector of the steam humidifier.
Steam line with fixed piping
For steam lines with fixed piping, the same instructions apply to the laying of the piping as already described. The following additional notes should be observed:
minimum internal diameter of 22 mm, 30 mm or 45 mm respectively should be applied over the whole length of the piping.
– Use exclusively Cu pipe or stainless steel (min. DIN 1.4301).
– To minimize the condensate formation (=loss), the steam pipes must be insulated.
– Connection of the steam pipe to the steam distribution pipe and to the steam humidifier is effected by means of short lengths of steam hose secured with hose clamps.
– Important! Allowance must be made for a pressure loss of 10 mm water column (approx.
100 Pa) per meter length or per 90° bend.
5.3.6 Installing the condensate hose
Important! Use original Condair condensate hose exclusively. Other types of hoses can cause operational malfunctions.
The hose layout depends on the position of the steam distribution pipe:
– Steam distribution pipe is mounted more than 300 mm above the top edge of the humidifier:
Condensate hose is led down to the humidifier with a minimum slope of 20 %, in the form of a
siphon (min. hose bend diameter Ø200 mm ), and inserted about 2 cm into the specified opening.
min. 20 %
Ømin. 200 mm min. 20 %

– Steam distribution pipe is mounted less than 300 mm above the top edge of the humidifier:
Condensate hose is led down with a minimum slope of 20 %, in the form of a siphon (min.
hose bend diameter Ø200 mm), directly into a discharge funnel.
37 min. 20 % min. 20 %
Ømin. 200 mm
Ømin. 200 mm
Note: If your unit feeds a number of steam distribution pipes, the individual condensate hoses are to be led into the discharge funnel.
Important! Before putting the unit into operation, the siphon of the condensate hose must be filled with water.
5.3.7 Inspecting the steam installation
Use the following check list to ascertain that the steam installation was performed correctly:
– Steam distribution pipe
Steam distributors (steam distribution pipe or OptiSorp steam distribution system) correctly positioned and secured (screws tightened)?
Are the outlet orifices at right angles to the air flow direction?
– Steam hose
Maximum length of 4 m?
Minimum bend radius of 300 mm (4-5 x internal diameter with fixed piping)?
Have the instructions for hose positioning been followed?
Steam hose: no sagging (condensate pocket) or condensate drain with siphon (hose bend with a minimum diameter of 200 mm) installed at the lowest point?
Rigid steam lines: properly insulated? Correct installation material used? Minimum internal diameter maintained?
Steam hose(s) securely attached with clamps?
Heat expansion during operation and shortening of the hose with ageing taken into consideration?
– Condensate hose
Downslope of at least 20 %?

5.5.5 Inserting the CP3 Card
All important operating parameters such as the maximum steam capacity, the heating voltage, the number of base units as well as the differentiation between main and extension unit are permanently stored on the CP3 Card.
Before you start the electrical installation, check whether the CP3 Card is installed. If it is not,
check whether the type designation on the CP3 Card supplied corresponds with the type designation on the data plate of the unit (the data plate is located above the type plate of the
unit). If the designations match, place the CP3 Card in the card holder on control print . Then cover the data plate above the type plate with the data plate supplied (self-adhesive).
If the type designation on the CP3 Card and the data plate do not match, the CP3 Card must not be installed. If this is the case, contact your Condair supplier.
5.5.6 Notes on electric installation
– The electric installation must be carried out according to the wiring diagram in chapter 5.5.1 or
5.5.2 and the applicable local regulations. All information given in the corresponding wiring diagram must be followed and observed.
– All cables must be lead into the unit via the cable openings equipped with cable glands (e.g. option “PG-cable gland”). The cable for the heating voltage supply must be lead into the unit from the bottom via the cable opening equipped with the clamp strap. Fix the cable with the clamp strap.
– Make sure the cables do not scrub on any components.
– Maximum cable length and required cross section per wire must be observed.
– The supply voltages for heating and control must match the respective voltages stated in the wiring diagram.
5.5.7 Inspecting the electrical installation
Check the following points:
Do the supply voltages for heating and control comply with the relevant voltages given in the wiring diagram?
Is the correct CP3 Card inserted?
Are the voltage supplies (heating and control voltage) correctly fused?
Is the service switch “Q..” installed in the supply line for to the heating and control voltage?
Are all components correctly connected according to the wiring diagram?
Are all connecting cables fastened?
Are the connecting cables free of tension (passed through cable glands?)

6.2 Commissioning
Proceed as follows when putting the unit into operation:
1. Examine the steam humidifier and installation for possible damage.
DANGER!
Damaged devices or devices with damaged installation may present danger to human life or cause severe damage to material assets.
Damaged units and/or units with damaged or faulty installation must not be operated.
2. Check whether the front panel is mounted and fixed with the two screws.
3. Open the filter valve (or the shut-off valve, respectively) in the water supply line.
4. Verify the set humidity value at the humidity controller or at the humidistat, and readjust as required.
5. Switch on the service switches for mains supplies (heating and control voltage).

After the system test the unit is in normal operation mode. The display shows the standard operating display (first page of the indication level).
Note: The contents of the standard operating display depends on the actual operating status and on the configuration of the Condair CP3 and can differ from the opposite display.
As soon as the humidity controller or the humidistat requires humidity, power is switched on for heating. The inlet valve opens (slight delay) and the steam cylinder fills with water. As soon as the submerged electrodes heat the water up the green LED lights up and after a few minutes (approx. 5–10 minutes, depending on the conductivity of the water) steam is produced.
Note: If the Condair CP3 is operated with water of low conductivity it may happen that the maximum steam capacity is not reached in the first few hours of operation. This is normal. As soon as the conductivity has reached a sufficient level (due to the vaporisation process) the humidifier will reach the maximum steam capacity.

Danger of electrical shock!
You may get in touch with live parts when the unit is open. Touching live parts may cause severe injury or even lethal violation.
Prevention: Before carrying out any maintenance work set the Condair CP3 out of operation as described in chapter 6.4 (switch off the unit, disconnect it from the mains and stop the water supply) and secure the unit against inadvertent power-up.
CAUTION!
The electronic components inside the humidifier are very sensitive to electrostatic dis-
charge.
Prevention: Before carrying out any maintenance work to the electrical or electronic equipment of the humidifier, appropriate
measures must be taken to protect the respective components
against damage caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD protection).
7.2 Maintenance list
To maintain operational safety the Condair CP3 steam humidifier must be maintained at regular intervals. This is differentiated between the f
irst maintenance after approx. 500 operating hours
(I), steam cylinder maintenance after the yellow LED lights (II) and annual maintenance (III).

8 Troubleshooting
Important! Most operational malfunctions are not caused by faulty equipment but rather by improper installation or disregarding of planning guidelines. Therefore, a complete fault diagnosis always involves a thorough examination of the entire system. Often, the steam hose connection has not been properly executed, or the fault lies with the humidity control system.
