Installation tips :
The steam generator should be operated within 5°C and 40°C in a room with less than 80% of
humidity.
When in operation, the rear panel becomes hot (60°C) so do not hang the generator on a heat
sensitive surface.
The devatec steam generators have been developped to be hanged on wall. Before
installation, make sure that the surface material is strong enough to hold the steam bath.
Consider free space around the generator to allow easy access for maintenance purposes
(s.a. here under sketches).

ELECTROVAP MC2 STEAM BATH
Installation - Step 2
Recommendations :
The operating principle of the electrode steam generator is the electrolyse
where an electrical current runs through stainless steel electrode plates
immersed in water made conductive by the mineral salts it contains.
The ElectroVap MC2 Steam Bath can produce steam from 3 water qualities
having the following characteristics :
Town water or raw water : the water TH should be between 0 and 40°
French grade for a conductivity between 1000µ and 350µS/cm (Micro
Siemens per centimetre).
Softened water: water treated by sodium/calcium permutation on resins.
The titration value TH should be kept as constant as possible and between
0° and 2°.
It is essential that the salt maintenance of softeners be programmed for the
water volume consummed in order to prevent an excessive salt
concentration to humidifer once the regeneration cycle is finished (please
refer to the softener’s user manual). Duplex softeners are best suited to
your humidifier in this regard. In doubt, please consult devatec.
Demineralised water: this is a water treatment by reverse osmosis or
running through resins.
The ElectroVap MC2 Steam Bath can work with demineralised waters
having a minimum water quality of 30µS/cm. A tea spoon of bicarbonate of
soda must be added on start-up to initiate steam production.
No chemical agent whatsoever (chlorine, disinfectant, ozone… ) must
be added to the water. Some water qualities may generate foam that
can disturb the correct functionning of the generator. If this occurs to
your humidifier, please refer to devatec for further assistance.
WATER CONNECTION
Recommendations on water tapping :
A fresh mains cold water service should be used to supply the unit. The
water pressure should not exceed 6 bar and should not be inferior to 1 bar
with a temperature less than 40°C. In case the water pressure exceeds 6.0
bar, a water regulator valve must be used.
The water supply connection is on the bottom of the unit. All the ELMC are
supplied with a 500 mm long water inlet hose with a 3/4” female
connection to the cold water supply. A check valve should be located on
the mains and cold water service connection to the unit.
The ELMC2 Steam Bath uses water to produce steam so leakage may
happen causing potential damage. Ensure that the floor below the
generator is constructed from waterproof materials (with draining
facilities) to withstand any water spilling during servicing or if a
problem occurs.
ba
The water level must be
between « a» and « b» for
the maximum capacity of
the cylinder.

Steam from the cylinder enters the hammam via a steam distribution nozzle. This nozzle is
made of material designed to prevent scalding. In order to obtain optimum performance of your
generator, it is recommended that these instructions be adhered to as far as possible.
There are two steam inlet diameters available : Ø 25 mm and Ø 40 mm

1. We would recommend to use the steam hose from Devatec supply.
NB : when the steam generator is started up for the first time, a smell of burning may be smelt
especially when brand new hoses are installed. This is normal and will eventually dispel.
2. Steam hose selection :
4. Please adhere to the recommendations given underneath for the installation of the steam
hose . A set of hose clamps is supplied for ensuring a correct installation.
The steam generator should be located within 6 m. of the steam distribution nozzle. If the
distance is superior to 6 m., insulated steel or copper pipe of a slightly larger diameter must be
used.

Condensate draining
The following drawing shows the water draining connections that should be made.
1. The devatec supplied steam hose should be used :
ELMC 1 cylinder : 1m Ø25mm hose with 1 hose clamp (supplied).
ELMC 2 cylinders : 1m + 1.2m Ø25mm hose with 2 clamps (supplied).
ELMC 3 cylinders : 1m + 1.2m + 1.8m Ø25mm hose with 3 clamps (supplied).
These hoses are designed to be connected to the draining system. Regular replacement is
recommended.
2. If rigid piping is used, it must be heat (100°C) and pressure resistant PVC material and have a 60
mm wide diameter.
3. The discharge hose must be free from any obstacle. It is recommended that each steam cylinder
has its own drain pipe and tank arrangement.
4. Use water tanks with a lid that have water collecting facilities.
5. A funnel can also be used but it should be offset from the underside of the unit to prevent any
steam and/or condensation from getting into the cabinet. The installation of a siphon (as per the
draining hose) is recommended and arrangements for holding water spilling should also be made.
6. CAUTION : keep a minimum pitch of 10° for both the draining hose of the generator and for
general drain pipe (s.a. picture 1).
