Steam supply connections to the Rapid-sorb header
1. Connect the steam supply interconnecting piping from the
humidifier to the Rapid-sorb. The steam supply piping requires
a minimum of 1/8"/ft (1%) pitch toward the header.
2. If multiple humidifiers are supplying one Rapid-sorb, a multiple
steam supply connector is provided.

Condensate drain connections to the Rapid-sorb header
1. Piping must be minimum ¾" I.D. (DN20) and rated for 212 °F
(100 °C) minimum continuous operating temperature.
2. Condensate drain line must be piped as shown in the figures
on the previous pages. Provide a 6" (152 mm) drop prior to a
5" (127 mm) water seal to:

3. After the water seal, run the drain line to an open drain with a 1"
(25 mm) vertical air gap. Cut the drain line at a 45° angle on the
end above the drain to permit a direct stream of water into the
drain pipe while maintaining a 1" (25 mm) air gap. Locate air
gap only in spaces with adequate temperature and air movement
to absorb flash steam; otherwise, condensing on nearby surfaces
may occur.
4. All drain lines must be installed and sized according to
governing codes.
