2 For your safety
General
The service technicians assigned to working on the Condair MN must have read and
understood this service manual as well as the installation instructions and the operating
instructions of the Condair MN before starting work on the unit.
An understanding of the contents of the service manual as well as the installation and
operating instructions is a basic prerequisite for protecting personnel from danger, avoid-
ing improper operation and thus for the safe and proper operation of the Condair MN.
Personnel qualications
All work described in this Service Manual must be performed only by trained Condair
service technicians.
It is assumed that the service technicians are familiar with and will abide by the regula-
tions on occupational health and safety and accident prevention.
Hazards that may arise from the Condair MN:
DANGER!
Risk of electrocution
The Condair MN's central unit runs on mains power. If the central unit is open,
live parts may be touched. Touching live parts may cause severe injury or death.
For this reason: Before starting work on the central unit, disconnect it from the
mains power supply (remove plug from socket).
Warning!
System contamination hazard
If the Condair MN is switched off, there is a risk of the water supply line and
the internal water system becoming contaminated, as the water system is then
not being ushed regularly.
For this reason: The Condair MN must not be switched off after being commis-
sioned. This will ensure that the water system is purged at regular intervals,
and any contamination is counteracted.

7For your safety
Warning!
UV-C radiation
A UV lamp is built into the Condair MN's central unit. In principle this should
pose no risks, as it is installed in a radiation-proof housing. If the UV lamp is
operated outside of this housing, harmful UV-C radiation may be released. This
may cause damage to the eyes and skin.
For this reason: the UV lamp must never be operated outside of the protec-
tive housing. The central unit must be switched off and disconnected from the
mains power supply (remove the plug from the socket) before the central unit
is opened.
Warning!
Waste from damaged UV lamps may lead to injury and cause damage to human
health and harm to the environment.
For this reason: the waste from damaged UV lamps must be disposed of in
accordance with local provisions on hazardous substances and the site of the
damage must be cleaned properly.
CAUTION!
Leaky or defective water pipes/connections may lead to water damage.
For this reason: After replacing components, make sure the system is tight.

3.1 Installation of humidier units (ush-mounting)
The installation of humidier units described below assumes that the preliminary installation work has
been completed, that the appropriate holes have been drilled at the ceiling or wall junction points of the
humidier units, and that the hoses and CAN bus cables have been retracted.
The humidier units are to be mounted as follows.
1a. Mount the installation ring (for ush mounting without catch springs only):
• Using two screws, mount the installation ring at the intended position in such a way that it is
concentric with the hole on the ceiling or wall. Make sure to use screws that are suitable for
mounting on the respective surface.
Important: If mounting on the ceiling, the installation ring must be mounted in such a way
that the recess for the Humstick in the installation ring points towards the middle of the
room. If mounting on a wall, the installation ring must be mounted in such a way that the
designation "UP" in the mounting ring points upwards!

1b. Fix the installation ring and catch springs to the humidier unit (for ush mounting with catch
springs only):
• Fix the installation ring to the humidier unit with two screws.
Important: Mount the installation ring so that the recess for the Humstick in the installa-
tion ring is on the connection side of the Humstick of the humidier unit!
• Insert the catch springs on both sides of the humidier unit as far as they will go into the holes
provided.

1c. Mount the mounting plate (only for surface mounting):
• Using four screws, mount the mounting plate to the ceiling or wall in the intended position. Make
sure to use screws that are suitable for mounting on the respective surface.
Important: If mounting on the ceiling, mount the mounting plate with the "Humstick" side
facing the centre of the room. If mounting on a wall, the mounting plate must be mounted
so that the attened side of the mounting plate points upwards!
