In Gas-to-Gas setup, constant depoint wet gas needs
to be continuously flowing at same flowrate as
sample. DI water is recommended.

* Units are expressed as flow rate of air (slpm) in
relation to approach dewpoint temperature. Approach
temperature is defined as difference between wet gas
entering humidifier and humidified stream outlet. For
example, for FC-125-240-10PP at 25 lpm, wet gas
enters humidifier at 70 deg.C at Approached Temperature of 4 deg., humidified stream outlet would be
66 deg. C.
Approach Temperature*
4 Deg. 6 Deg. 9 Deg.
In Water-to-Gas setup, heated water needs to be
continuously circulated. Flow with greater pressure
needs to be flowing inside tubes to prevent tubing
collapse. DI water should be circulated at 4 LPM for
50 LPM of dry gas flow.
WATER-TO-GAS PERFORMANCE
Performance can be controlled by increasing heat
or by decreasing sample flow. Chart below shows
performance of various models.
