Vapormist (standard water) field piping overview
Vapormist piping:
Standard water
Water supply line:
• ¼" NPT (DN8) connection size
• 25 to 80 psi (175 to 550 kPa) required water pressure.
• 100 μS/cm minimum water conductivity.
• If water piping to humidifier is nonmetallic,
the first 3' (1 m) of water supply piping from
humidifier should be metallic.
Steam vapor hose (maximum run 10' [3 m]). May also use pipe or
tubing. See the
DRI-STEEM Design Guide
for maximum pipe or tubing
lengths.
Unions by installer
Shock arrester recommended
to reduce water hammer
¾" pipe thread (DN20)
tank drain, skimmer, and
P-trap piping, rated for
212°F (100 °C). If piping
run is over 10' (3 m),
increase pipe to 1¼"
(DN32) after P-trap.
1" (25 mm) air gap
Spill funnel. Plumb
to floor drain.
Open drain required.
See first note below.
¾" pipe thread (DN20) frame drain and
P-trap piping, rated for 212 °F (100 °C)
Frame drain
Cover
Install plumb
DC-1136
Notes:
• Locate air gap only in spaces with adequate temperature and air movement to absorb flash steam; otherwise, condensation may form on nearby surfaces.
Refer to governing codes for drain pipe size and maximum discharge water temperature.
• Offset humidifier from spill funnel or floor drain to prevent flash steam from rising into cabinet.
• Dashed lines indicate provided by installer.
• Water supply inlet is more than 1" (25 mm) above skim/overflow port, eliminating the possibility of backflow or siphoning from tank. No additional
backflow prevention is required; however, governing codes prevail.
• Install a union in water supply and drain lines as shown to allow tank removal.
• Damage caused by chloride corrosion is not covered by your DRI-STEEM warranty.
