Figure 4. System Overview – MHTC Flow

Functional description

The MHTC Flow model provides multistep control by means of the MHTC Total Control unit and the step valves (1, 2 or 3 step valves depending on the humidifier capacity). The MHTC Total Control unit (for wall mounting) processes analog sensor/control signals and uses them to control the step valves. This allows multistep control (1 to 3 steps depending on the humidifier capacity) which improv es control accuracy compared to the MHB Flow model.

In case of a humidification/cooling request one, two or all three step valves open (depending on the request). The water flows via the manually adjustable volume controlling valves to the distribution pipes above the humidification boxes.

The distribution pipes evenly supply the water to the entire surface of the humidification boxes where it flows down and humidifies the air flowing through the humidification boxes. The excess water not used for humidification flows to the water tub and then directly to the drain. If the MHTC Flow model is equipped with the optional UV water treatment (installed in the water supply) the water is continuously sterilized during the humidification process.

3.6.2. MHB Reflow System Overview

Figure 6. System Overview – MHB Reflow

Functional description

The water tub is filled up to a preset upper level via the level-controlled supply valve. When the water level in the tub drops below a certain limit, the level-controlled supply valve opens until the upper limit is reached again. The pump is activated whenever the float is high and continues to operate for a preset time after the float level drops.

The MHB Reflow model provides On/Off control by means of the MHB control unit and an external On/Off humidistat. In case of a humidification/cooling request the pump is activated. The water flows via the manually adjustable volume controlling valves to the distribution pipes above the humidification boxes.

The distribution pipes evenly supply the water to the entire surface of the humidification boxes where it flows down and humidifies the air flowing through the humidification boxes. The excess water not used for humidification flows to the water tub. To prevent accumulation of mineral residues and the formation of germs in the water tub, the tub is completely drained periodically (interval or time controlled).

In case of a humidification/cooling request, the circulation pump starts and one, two, or all three step valves open (depending on the request). The water flows via the manually adjustable volume controlling valves to the distribution pipes above the humidification boxes.

To prevent accumulation of mineral residues and the formation of germs in the water tub, the tub is completely drained periodically (Interval or time controlled). Additionally further hygiene functions can be activated: Operation-dependent draining of the water tub (conductivity or fill cycle controlled) as well as cleaning and drying of the humidification boxes.

If the MHTC Reflow model is equipped with the optional UV water treatment, a particular amount of water is led to the UV water treatment unit where it is sterilized.

1. INSTALLATION

1.1 IMPORTANT NOTES ON THE MOUNTING AND INSTALLATION WORK

Qualification of personnel

All mounting and installation work must be carried out only by well qualified personnel authorized by the owner. It is the owner’s responsibility to verify proper qualification of the personnel.

General note

Strictly observe and comply with all information given in the present installation and operating instructions regarding the mounting of the unit and the installation of water and electricity.

Observe and comply with all local regulations dealing with water and electrical installations.

Safety

The electrical installation for the unit models MHB Flow, MHTC Flow, MHB Reflow, MHTC Reflow requires the removal of the control unit cover. Please note the following:

Danger of electrical shock! You may get in touch with live parts when the control unit is open. The control unit must be connected to the mains only after all mounting and installation work has been completed and the control unit cover has been relocated properly.

The electronic components inside the control unit are very sensitive to electrostatic discharge. When the unit is open for installation work, appropriate measures must be taken to protect these components against damage caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD protection).

1.2 UNIT MOUNTING

1.2.1. Note on the locating the unit

Usually, the design and dimensioning of the ventilation duct/air handler as well as the location of the Nortec MH inside the duct are determined, recorded and specified when planning the entire system. Prior to installation, however, make sure the following criteria have been taken into consideration:

• For operation with fully demineralised water: Fully demineralised water is aggressive! For this reason, all components located close to the humidification unit (duct/ air handler, fastening material, drain pipe, etc.) must be made of corrosion-proof steel or plastic.

• For installation and maintenance of the humidification unit a viewing window and a sufficiently large maintenance door must be available in the duct/ air handler.

• In the area of the humidification unit the ventilation duct/ air handler must be waterproof.

• Important! An air filter must be installed at the air inlet of the humidification unit. The filter

must meet the quality standards (MERV 11 (Note WMCI specifies EU7 (f7) which is equivalent to MERV 11) ASHRAE 52.2 or better.

• In case of low ambient temperature the duct must be insulated to prevent the moist air from condensing inside the duct.

• If the system is equipped with a heater, make sure it is at least 20” (0.5 m) away from the humidification unit.

• If silencers are mounted in the air conditioning units make sure to locate the humidification unit at a minimum distance of 10’ (3 m) before or after the silencers.

• In order to avoid drops seeping over the humidification boxes, an even air flow over the full cross section of the humidification unit must be guaranteed. If necessary, rectifiers or perforated plates must be installed on the building side before the humidifier. If the air velocity through the humidification boxes exceeds 750 fpm (3.8 m/s), mist eliminator must be installed.

• The effective height of the siphon in the drain line depends on the duct pressure. Correct dimensioning of the siphon is the customer’s responsibility.

1.0 MAINTENANCE

1.1 IMPORTANT NOTES ON MAINTENANCE

Qualification of personnel

All maintenance work must be carried out only by well qualified and trained personnel authorized by the owner. It is the owner’s responsibility to verify proper qualification of the personnel.

General note

The instructions and details for maintenance work must be followed and upheld. Only the maintenance work described in this documentation may be carried out. Only use original Nortec spare parts to replace faulty parts.

Safety

Before carrying out any maintenance work take the Nortec MH out of operation as described in this manual and secure the unit against inadvertent power-up. In addition, take the ventilation system out of operation as described in the operation instructions of the ventilation system and secure the ventilation system against inadvertent power-up.

The Nortec MH must be maintained in the prescribed intervals, the cleaning work must be carried out correctly and the humidification boxes and the mist eliminator boxes must be replaced after their prescribed lifetime has elapsed.

WARNING! If the unit is insufficiently maintained germs which can cause illness, may grow in the water tub and the humidification boxes (and the mist eliminator) of the Nortec MH and may affect the air passing through the humidifier.

1.2 MAINTENANCE INTERVALS

In order to maintain operational safety the Nortec MH must be maintained in regular intervals. The time interval for the maintenance is to be adapted to the operating conditions. The hygiene status depends mainly on the quality of the humidifier water but also on the adherence to the exchange intervals of the upstream air filter, the air velocity and the micro-biological and chemical composition of the supply air. Therefore the maintenance intervals must be determined for each system separately.

The first maintenance must be carried out after 800 operating hours. Depending on the encountered hygiene status during the first maintenance the interval time must be decreased or increased.

10-40

Page 46 2008-12-03
