1. INTRODUCTION The NHTC humidifier is controlled by Nortec’s Patented Auto adaptive Water Management Control System. This system allows the humidifiers to adapt to basically any potable incoming water and changes that occur to the water supply. This eliminates the need to readjust drain timers, changes complete cylinders or time consuming adjustment of electrode spacing’s. The system also adjusts the drain rate of the humidifier to reduce the amount of drain water exiting the humidifi

(6) As the water is boiled away, the minerals left behind increase the conductivity of the water in the cylinder. As soon as the conductivity is greater than design, the Ta to boil from A to D will be shorter than To and a drain cycle is initiated. (7) The fill valve always opens during timer drains, adding cold water to mix with the hot water from the cylinder during automatic drain cycles. This tempering process is required to meet plumbing codes. (8) As can be seen from a typical s

B. NH CAPACITY ADJUSTMENT (1) Each NORTEC NH Series humidifier is rated at its maximum output capacity. By means of the alphanumeric display and keypad on the NHTC/NHPC, the humidifiers can be adjusted to obtain an output between 20% and 100% of its rated capacity. C. DRAIN CYCLE AND CYLINDER LIFE (1) Water Type Used (Potable or Softened) (a) The electrode steam product line is one of the most efficient humidifier systems since it uses the minerals in the water to conduct electricity

0. Store previous cycle’s drain decision in integral (l) memory. 1. Fill to A trigger (use all places below 1-10). 2. Boil to C trigger without timing to allow previous fill water to mix thoroughly during boiling. 3. Boil from C to D while monitoring time (T actual). 4. Decide how long (how much) to drain, then fill to B. 5. Drain according to the P+I calculated drain time, fill on to control outlet temperature. 6. At D, stop draining and postpone remaining drain, fill to B. 7. Contin

It is important to note that the drain rate shown includes the make-up water, mixed with the drain water, which tempers the drain water to 140°F (60°C) or less. NOTE The electrode steam process provides optimum efficiency because all resistance to current passage is converted to usable energy. Unlike cal-rod or infrared humidifiers which convert some of their capacities into unusable heat. Figure 5. Capacity Setting & Cylinder Life Figure 6. Ou

3. PRE-INSTALLATION EQUIPMENT VERIFICATION A. GENERAL (1) Ensure the available voltage and phase correspond with humidifier voltage and phase as indicated on the humidifier’s specification label. (2) Ensure that the external fuse disconnect is sufficient size to handle the rated amperage as indicated on the humidifier’s specifications label. Refer to local building codes. (3) Report any discrepancy immediately to the site engineer. (4) Location and mounting is described in Chapte
