HERRMIDIFIER’S HERRICANE CS SERIES provides the

ultimate in performance and cost effectiveness in four dis-

tinct product families. Each Herricane CS series humidifier

offers energy efficiency with its standard non- jacketed de-

sign, noise minimization compliments of an exclusive nozzle

design and “Guaranteed Evaporative Distance” (G.E.D.) as

a result of its total system design. For complete details of the

Herricane product family, ask for the “Herricane CS Series

Application Guide.”

HERRMIDIFIER’S HERRTRONIC electronic steam humidi-

fiers provide the features required for a variety of needs. The

Herrtronic AD adjusts to incoming water conditions, has di-

agnostics to aid troubleshooting, indicator lights to show op-

erating conditions and is controlled by an on-off device. The

Herrtronic MD is microprocessor based. It has a user friendly

key pad and features diagnostics, networking up to 29 units,

P & I control and can proportion off a control or a limit input!

Both units are backed by a limited 2-year warranty and are

ETL and CSA listed. (See AD/Bro or MD/Bro.)

As we have seen, there are various types of humidification

equipment, each with various advantages and disadvantag-

es according to application.

ATOMIZING equipment is the most energy efficient. It is

ideal for industrial plants, printing plants, bakeries, wood-

working, etc. Also, since it adds evaporative cooling, it will

reduce cooling loads and is excellent for use in cold storage

or textile where humidification is needed year round. This

type equipment is also installed in the duct, as Herrmidicool.

EVAPORATIVE equipment is both energy efficient and dust

free, but cannot attain high levels (over 65% R.H.) of R.H. as

needed in cold storage or baking. It is best suited for com-

puter rooms, offices, schools, libraries etc. Dusty industrial

atmospheres can easily cause clogging of medias - this ap-

plication should be avoided. Air washers because of their

size and cost, are almost always used for evaporative cool-

ing and filtering as well as humidification.

STEAM equipment is the least energy efficient due to low

boiler efficiency, transmission losses, condensate losses and

heat addition, but is the most sterile thereby lending itself

useful for hospitals, nursing homes, laboratories, etc. The

use of the new self-contained steam humidifiers increases

the energy efficiency of this type of equipment.

The type of humidification equipment used is often as impor-

tant as the amount of equipment needed. It is best to consult

the experts at Herrmidifier Company, Inc. and let them deter-

mine both the amount and type of humidification equipment

best suited to your needs.
