9
Design Guidelines: Boiler & Humidifier Combinations Boiler Gross Output Capacity Should be at Least 1.5 Times Total Humidification Load Water Softeners Should Be Used On Boiler Feed Water Condensate Return System Is Not Necessary (Unless Required by Circumstances)
10
Design Guidelines: Boiler & Humidifier Combinations Boiler Pressure Should Be 15 psig (1 bar) Or Less Automatic Blow-Down System Is Desirable Steam Supply Piping Should Be Insulated No Limit To Size Or Number Of Humidifiers From One Boiler
11
Steam Humidifier - Performance Vapor Quality Excellent –Steam Molecules are.0006 Microns –Humidifier Tests Indicate No Particles Less Than 3 Microns Turn Down - Up To 123:1 For Single Humidifier Response Time - Excellent
12
Steam Humidifier - Costs Equipment –100 LB/hr (45 kg/hr) = $2,200 –1000 LB/hr (450 kg/hr) = $5,500 Installation –Depends on Application Energy –100 LB/hr (45 kg/hr) = $0.50/hr Maintenance –1 Hour Per Unit Per Year
13
Steam Supply Options No Volatile Chemical Treatment Do Not Return Condensate –Not Much Condensate With Humidification Stainless Steel Return Piping Replace Return Lines When Corroded
14
Dedicated Steam System Separate Boiler(s) For Direct Steam Humidifiers –Not Cost Effective At 100 LB/hr (45 kg/hr) –But Can be At 500 LB/hr (225 kg/hr) or More –Plus Benefits of Direct Steam Injection
