5 It is also possible to install distributor in the duct and then attach the separator/valve
assembly.
6 Follow the steps listed in “Installation Of LiveSteam Humidifier” section to complete
installation.
Assembly Of Multiple Distributor Humidifier
Make a plan of distributors’ layout (if not already done). See Figure 8. Multiple distributor
humidifiers require field assembly. The following steps should be taken into consideration:
1 Match the separator valve assembly with the correct distributors (Nortec will tag both
assemblies).
2 To ensure the same output from each dispersion tube, connect steam supply from separator
close to the middle of distributor header.

3 Steam jacket piping has to be secured to the distributor header to avoid possible
separation. Use gear clamp or similar device.
4 Distributors have to be equally spaced in the duct. Distance to the top and bottom of the
duct should be one half of “E” but not less than 6" for LS1 and LS2 distributors and not less
than 9" for LS3 distributors.
5 Use additional steam trap if total length of distributors of Type LS1 exceeds 40’, Type LS2
exceeds 30’, and Type LS3 exceeds 20’. See Figure 9.
