Page 17: Installation - Step 2 Water Supply Installation
Water supply pressure: 15 to 80PSI [1 to 5bar] Water supply temperature: 37 to 105°F [3 to 40°C] IER electric steam humidiﬁer can accept a wide range of water quality. Untreated water will lead to scale deposits that will need to be regularly removed from steam chamber.
Page 18 Water supply connection: 1. Install a manual shut oﬀ valve (supplied by others) on the water main line. 2. If IER humidiﬁer is supplied with tap water it is recommended to install a 10µ sediment ﬁlter (supplied by others) on the line.

Page 30: Installation - Step 6 Control Installation
For system that needs very accurate RH% control a RH% sensor can replace or supplement the On/Oﬀ Hi Limit humidistat in this case the IER humidiﬁer will not only modulate the steam produc on based on the control; signal demand but also on this propor onal Hi- Limit signal.
Page 31 1. Ensure that the safety contact for Air proving switch and Hi limit humidistat are connected to the terminals 4 and 5. 2. Connect the applicable controls according to the above wiring diagram 3. Selec on of control signal is done through set-up screens once the IER will be powered.
