INTRODUCTION:

For dependable moisture and humidity control, these units
provide an efficient method of maintaining uniform moisture
in paper, fabric, tobacco, etc. at the same time helping to
reduce the possibility of fire hazards. The water is finely
atomized and quickly absorbed into the room atmosphere.
Each Automatic Spray Atomizer requires 1/2 C.F.M. at 50
p.s.i. air pressure for the finest uniform atomization.

FIRE PREVENTION:

Paasche Humidifier Units present an inexpensive means of
reducing the danger of spontaneous combustion. Proper
humidification limits dust diffusion and grounds static electricity.

HUMIDIFIER USES:

• Printing and Bindery Plants- They are of great value
for keeping paper quality at its best to assure perfect
registration when printing.

• Tobacco and Similar Industries- require uniform
humidity control when aging and curing.

• Textile Mills, Clothing Factories, Warehouses-
Fabrics tend to gradually deteriorate in dry atmosphere.
When adequate humidity is maintained, goods retain their
original luster and sheen. Dangers from lint and dust
accumulations are greatly minimized with proper humidity.

• Carton Manufacturers- Winter conditions can dry out
materials used to make boxes, causing tears and
improper folding during manufacture or damage by the
customer while in use.

• Dry and Dusty Factories- Factories which are dry and
dusty due to insufficient humidity, are constantly subject
to the dangers of spontaneous combustion. One method
of reducing this hazard is with a uniform, accurate and
dependable Automatic Humidifier Unit by Paasche.

PAASCHE F800- Series Automatic Humidifier

Page 2

The F800- Series Automatic Humidifier Units will automatically dispense gallons of finely atomized water, providing controlled humidity
when the dial on the humidistat (Item #1) is adjusted to the humidity required. These Automatic Humidifier Units will automatically start and
stop at the humidity setting. When properly connected

to the water and electric systems of the building and to an air source that supplies

constant air pressure (minimum 50 p.s.i.) to the F800 Series Unit, these units will deliver finely atomized water for extended periods.

HUMIDIFIER INSTALLATION

1. Mount Humidifier Unit in convenient location using SM-42 Mounting Bracket (not
shown).

2. Connect air supply to HF-1/4" Air Inlet Valve.

3. Connect water supply to HF-1/4" Water Inlet Valve.

4. Open air inlet valve and water supply valve under air supply valve
Tighten connections if required.

clockwise -Do Not Over Tighten
knob and then open adjusting knob to number 30.

7. Set Regulator item #7, located behind Gauge #2, at 50 p.s.i. minimum air pressure (60
p.s.i. maximum).

8. Plug units three wire electrical plug into properly grounded receptacle (115V., 60cy).

9. Turn Humidistat control dial to on position and desired humidity. You will hear a “click”
when activated.

10. Water flow rate may be adjusted using the U-3178 Fluid Adjusting Knob on back of
each Spray Gun. Mist should always be absorbed into the surrounding air without
settling out onto the floor under the unit.

CEILING, WALL, MERCHANDISE OR MACHINERY.

. Set “0” on reference dial to line up with “0” on fluid adjusting

CAUTION: DO NOT AIM DIRECTLY AT

check for leaks.

SAFETY NOTE: Do Not allow water vapor to condense or leaks to drip onto floor or

unit, if this condition exists, check for:

a. Water leaks from connections or Spray Gun nozzles.
b. Insufficient atomization. Correct by increasing air pressure and/or decreasing fluid flow.
c. Humidistat setting too high. Lower setting if necessary.
d. Open drain valve on R-75AR Regulator/Condenser item #7 periodically to drain airline

moisture buildup.

CAUTION: Guard Face and Eyes so escaping air and moisture do not cause injury.
