II. SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Humidifier System
The humidifier you have just purchased is the result of years of testing as we refined the original CS-1 humidifier into the
current CS-Series of units. The CS-Series offers a family of four different products custom sized to handle all of your steam
distribution needs. The distribution system has the following features:
• Zero Maintenance
• Quality Construction - All Stainless Steel Construction, ASME Certified Welds
• Quality Control - Your unit has been pressure tested prior to shipment.
• Flexible Design - Works with pressurized boiler, atmospheric boiler, or unfired boiler.
• Capacity to 2000 lbs/hr.
• Stainless Steel Precision Nozzles
• Available “Guaranteed Evaporative Distance” Performance Guarantee
• Quiet Operation
• Superb Energy Efficiency
• NO FIELD ASSEMBLY of distribution system
• Total system design assures that YOU GET THE CAPACITY YOU PAID FOR!
The system is as ingenious as it is simple. In a system with steam supplied by a central boiler, steam flow from the source
first passes the inlet strainer. From here the steam travels to a condensate trap, then on to the steam valve. Depending on
the application, the valve could have a solenoid operator, a pneumatic operator, or an electric operator. Once the steam
has passed through the steam valve, it enters the steam distribution system. This design is extremely quiet, up to 7.3 times
quieter than the competition. It is also efficient, 3-23% more efficient than jacketed designs, depending on the duty cycle, Any
condensate that forms in the distribution system will be disposed of through the manifold trap(s).
With a self-generating steam unit, the modulation of steam would occur in the boiler itself, therefore, the strainer, steam valve
and supply trap would be eliminated. See Section V for a typical layout.
