times as you will hook the cover onto them before tightening.
2. Starting from the fan-side of the humidier, attach the cover by hooking it onto the screws.
3. Slide the frame towards the fan-side to “lock” it in place. Follow the below steps while further tight-
ening the screws.
a. From the inside of the humidier, lightly push the sponge packing outwards, but DO NOT allow
it to protrude from the inside of the main unit.
b. While pushing the sponge out, gradually tighten the screws.
c. Prevent gaps between the humidier and ceiling panels by tightening the screws evenly.
d. Repeat this process for all screws until fully tightened. Do not over-tighten, as this will damage
the frame and may create gaps, or cause the cover to fall.
4. There are two screws along the partition plate inside the humidier unit. These screws a󰀩x the catch
belts (or straps) that are used to secure the frame from falling. Remove the screws and pass the
A-type belts through their respective holes, then re-attach the screws. Ensure the belts are attached
to both sides of the humidier.
5.4.2 Installing the Grille
Install mounting screws for the straps (safety catch belts) that keep the grille from falling from the
cover. Refer to Figure 5 on page 16. These belts are located on two sides of the humidier. Ensure that
the belt/straps on both sides of the unit are secured.

5.5 Installing the Water Supply and Drain Connections
5.5.1 Water Supply Piping
5.5.1.1 Water supply piping considerations
• Carry out water supply installation with a qualied technician. Follow local codes and regulations.
• Ensure the water supply conforms with the water quality described in Table 2 on page 12.
• Do not use RO/DI water.
• Install a service valve and ushing valve on the humidier supply water piping for maintenance
procedures, and is laid out such that on-site workers may ush as needed.
• Install a ushing valve along the line to prevent stagnant water and corrosion during periods of
unuse. Flushing should be done regularly to prevent these problems. Follow local codes and
regulations.
• Avoid cross connections when attaching a ushing valve in an intermediary location along the
line (pipe continuing on both sides).
• (Optional) Install a ushing valve (or plug) at the end of the pipe so that the user can ush the
pipe when necessary.
• Prevent condensation in the ceiling by keeping the piping su󰀩ciently warm.
• Use ring joints when connecting the copper water supply pipe. Ensure a reliable connection that
will not result in leaks.
• Wrap ring joints with insulation.
• If using a sealing agent, follow local codes and regulations, as well as the instructions on the seal-
ing agent manufacturer.
• Use a water supply connection tting (R1/2) when connecting additional piping.
• Flush the pipe with water before installing the piping to the system. This helps prevent any dirt or
any other contaminants from reaching the humidier.
• Before attaching the water supply piping, ush the pipes in the humidier with clean water and
ensure that it is clear, colourless, and odourless.
5.5.1.2 Installing the water supply pipe
Figure 6: Water supply piping overview (general conguration)
To install the copper water supply pipe:
1. Insert the copper pipe straight into the connector tting. Avoid creating sharp bends in the pipe.
2. Use two wrenches to tighten the nut (for the end connected to the water supply connector tting).
3. Tighten the ring nut to 88.51 lb-in (10 N-m).

5.5.2 Drain Piping
5.5.2.1 Drain piping considerations
• Make sure to use the drain hose, drain tting and clamps included with the product when installing
drain piping.
• Do not use any solvent or adhesive agent that may cause the drain outlet to deteriorate.
• Attach the drain hose in a location that will ensure there are no external loads applied to the pipe.
• Avoid twisting and excessive bending that will cause leakage.
• Install insulation over the drain piping to prevent condensation.
• Avoid installing traps and avoid having the pipe pass over raised objects.
• When laying pipe horizontally, use reducing sockets and other ttings to convert to a pipe diam-
eter of 3/4 in (19 mm) or larger, and ensure a downward gradient of 1:100 or greater and a pipe-
end outlet open to the outside air.
• If it is not possible to achieve a su󰀩cient downward drainage gradient, utilize a raised-section
drainage conguration.
• Install supports brackets along the drain line to prevent sagging. Condair recommends 39.37-
59.06 in (1000-1500 mm) between supports.
• Do NOT install vents in the drain line

Raised-SectionDrainPipeConguration
• When using a raised-section drain piping conguration you may choose to use :
• A vinyl chloride pipe, nominal diameter: 0.51 in (13 mm), or
• A hose, internal diameter: 0.59 in (15 mm).
Ensure raised section is vertical. Incorrect installation may cause leakage.
• The raised piping section should not exceed 31.50 in (800 mm) in height, with a maximum
47.24 in (1200 mm) from the ceiling surface. Failure to adhere to these distance restrictions may
cause drainage water back-ow when the drain pump is stopped, resulting in problems such as
triggering of the high water level alarm, water leakage, etc
• Piping should extend vertically upward starting at a point no more than 11.81 in (300 mm) away
from the main unit horizontally. Failure to adhere to these distance restrictions may cause drain-
age water back-ow when the drain pump is stopped, resulting in problems such as triggering of
the high water level alarm, water leakage, etc.
• Before the vertical run of the drain line, install the drain hose horizontally or at a slight upward gra-
dient (about 1:100) to prevent air pockets from forming, and ensure that the hose does not have
any kinks, breakages, etc. If air pockets form, they will be indicated by a sputtering sound or other
unusual sound.
• For horizontally-laid piping following the raised section, use reducing sockets and other ttings to
convert to pipe diameter of 3/4 in (19 mm) or larger, and ensure a downward gradient of 1:100 or
greater and a pipe-end outlet open to the outside air.

Ø 0.79 x 0.59 in ( 20 × 15, 200 mm)
R1/2 × Ø 0.63 in (16 mm)
Figure 10: Drain piping installation (general)
To install the drain hose (general):
1. Fully insert the drain hose over the drain tting in the humidier.
2. Insert the drain hose over the drain outlet on the humidier.
3. Use clamps to secure the pipe at their connection points.
Torque the clamps to 13.28 lb-in (1.5 N-m). Do not over tighten as this may cause damage to the
clamps or pipe, and may cause leaks.
5.6 InstallingRemoteController(withhumidistat)
Important! Indoor use only. Install the remote controller in a location away from steam, splashing
water, or oil.
CAUTION!
Prevent dust, water, or other debris from coming into contact with the remote controller board in the
controller.
CAUTION!
The remote controller board is attached to the upper casing of the remote controller. Be careful
when opening the controller case during installation.
The humidier is solely controlled through the remote controller. The remote controller contains
a built-in humidistat and is capable of controlling multiple, linked units at the same time. A humidier
with a di󰀨erent humidity setpoint (i.e. in another room) may require its own remote controller and
will function independently from the other Condair Ceiling Mounted Evaporative Humidiers in the
building.
The installation of the remote controller will require you to wire the remote controller (will require you
to open the casing) and mount it to a wall or suitable surface. You will also need to wire the remote
controller to the main humidier, if installing a group of humidiers. (refer to "Wiring the Remote Controller
to the Humidier" on page 22). After you complete the wiring (of the controller and power) complete
"Address Setting" on page 28 and test the humidier.
Note: Single units are pre-congured at the factory.
All wiring is to be completed by the customer (and their qualied technician).
