

Does not drain to reduce output



Standard drainage once per 24 hours

Energy Consumption Due to Drainage Assumptions

 45 PPH Output  100% Output  $ 0.045/KW Electrical Costs  Operation 212 days/yr  Incoming water 50 °F

Drainage Cost Comparison

 HumidiClean $22.60/yr  EHU-601 $261.00/yr

IAQ Features

• Generates high quality steam for distribution.

• Design incorporates an operating cycle for cartridge replacement, both simplifying and demanding periodic attention.

• After 72 hours without demand, the unit drains itself and initiates a drying cycle for the ionic beds.

HumidiClean

Features Immersed resistance heating element Advantages Current not passed through water.

Conductivity not a consideration Benefits Greater flexibility for us on low conductivity water or hard water.

Annealed tank options Tank operating history monitored May be used on DI water Unit demands attention as operating cycle expires Proven safety Opens new markets not generally available to electric units Assists in assuring cartridges are replaced on a timely basis. This maximizes performance and component life and minimizes maintenance costs.

Features Ionic Bed Cartridges

HumidiClean

Advantages Attract solids from water as its temperature is increased Benefits Reduces cleaning frequency of tank Lengthens life of drain valve Humidifier retains capacity longer Reduces downtime and resulting labor costs Does not require an electrician to perform basic maintenance Substantially reduces deposits of solids

HumidiClean

Features "Oven door" cabinet design "Oven door" safety switch Key locked access door OK To Open light High & Low water level detection Connections for Class 2 Alarm device Temperature sensing switch Overcurrent protection Advantages Easy access to tank Inherent HumidiClean Safety features Benefits Simplifies maintenance and increases likelihood ionic bed cartridges will be replaced Maximizes safety for service personnel or owner.

Lengthens component life

HumidiClean

Features Drain valve operates once per 24 hrs. of contactor "on time" Advantages Less frequent drainage than required of other humidifiers Drain water tempered by fill valve Insures hot water is not drained from the unit Accepts various input signals Unit is easily adaptable to various control systems Benefits Saves water Saves energy Lengthens drain valve life and improves responsiveness, resulting in better control Helps meet local codes.

Assists for any electrical pumping requirements Simplifies installation

HumidiClean

Features Baking cycle initiates after 72 hours of no demand Advantages Benefits Tank is drained & heating elements dry the cartridges IAQ benefit ensuring no stagnant water or wet (and cold) media is exposed to the air Steam dispersion options include dispersion tube, fan package & HumidiPack Allows for use in air handling systems as well as direct room discharge Can handle broad range of applications, simplifying design and installation

Frame Assembly (MickStack)
