The ULTRA-ZONE steam humidifier now comes equipped with a factory installed Z100, which acts as a
sacrificial metal. Put simply, the chemicals in the water will attack and cling to the

will not attack the other components inside the humidifier as long as the

Is active.

This results in a dramatic decrease in chemical and scale build up on the stainless steel components
inside the tank. In particular, it means less scale build up on the heating element which is subject to
damage from excessive scaling and over heating. This also means that efficiency stays high and
preventive maintenance is

The

Remember that the

with scale and should be replaced annually for best results.

To remove the

you must have already unplugged and shutdown your steam humidifier and

allowed it to cool. The water tank has been drained, the water supply, drain lines and electrical wiring
have been disconnected and the unit has been removed from the duct.

Using a phillips screwdriver, remove the two screws that hold the baffle plate to the tank. Lift the baffle
slightly back to clear the water probe and then straight up and out of the tank. You can then see the

of the

the baffle plate and install the new

baffle plate. Now re-insert the baffle plate into the tank and secure with the two screws that were
removed previously. It’s that simple.

The

plate in the same location as the factory installed model. DO NOT lay the

down into the main

tank. It may come in contact with the heating element and damage it. The dimensions of the baffle
plate prevent the

from falling down into the tank.

The Field Controls Steam Humidifier now comes equipped with a factory installed Z100, which acts
as a sacrificial metal. Put simply, minerals in the water will attack and cling to the Z100. The
minerals will not attack the other components inside the humidifier as long as the Z100 is present
and active.

This results in a dramatic decrease in mineral and scale build up on the critical components inside
the tank. In particular, it means less scale build up on the heating element which is subject to
damage from excessive scaling and over heating. This also means that efficiency stays high and
preventive maintenance is faster and easier.

The Z100 is positioned on the baffle plate inside the tank and is easily removed and replaced.
Remember that the Z100ʼs job is to become the target of mineral attack, so it will be heavily
covered with scale and should be replaced annually for best results.

To remove the Z100 you must have already unplugged and shutdown your steam humidifier and
allowed it to cool. The water tank has been drained, the water supply, drain lines and electrical
wiring have been disconnected and the unit has been removed from the duct.

Refer to the blow up view on Page 11. Using a phillips screwdriver, remove the two screws that
hold the baffle plate to the tank. Lift the baffle slightly back to clear the water probe and then straight

season. Notice the heavy scale build up on the Z100 that would have been on your element, if the
Z100 was not there. Use a rag or pliers to grasp the edges of the Z100 and simply unscrew it from
