2 For your safety

General

Every person working with the Condair ABS3 must have read and understood the installation and

operating instructions before carrying out any work.

Knowing and understanding the contents of the installation and operating instructions is a basic

requirement for protecting the personnel against any kind of danger, to prevent faulty operation, and

to operate the unit safely and correctly.

All ideograms, signs and markings applied to the unit must be observed and kept in readable

state.

Qualication of personnel

All work (installation, operating, servicing , etc.) described in these installation and operating instruc-

tions may only be carried out by specialist who are well trained and adequately qualied and

are authorized by the customer.

For safety and warranty reasons any action beyond the scope of this manual must be carried out

only by qualied personnel authorised by the manufacturer.

It is assumed that all persons working with the Condair ABS3 are familiar and comply with the ap-

propriate regulations on work safety and the prevention of accidents.

Intended use

The adiabatic atomiser humidier Condair ABS3 are intended exclusively for air humidication

within the specied operating conditions (see chapter 9 “Product specications”. Any other type 

of application, without the written consent of your Condair supplier, is considered as not conforming

with the intended purpose and may lead to the Condair ABS3 becoming dangerous.

Operation of the equipment in the intended manner requires that all the information in these in-

structions are observed (in particular the safety instructions).

Danger that may arise from the unit

DANGER! Danger of electric hazzard

One may get in touch with live parts when the wiring box is open. Touching live parts may

cause severe injury or danger to life.

Prevention: before carrying out any work set the Condair ABS3 out of operation as described in

chapter 5.4 (switch off the unit, disconnect it from the mains and stop the water supply) and secure

the unit against inadvertent power-up.

WARNING!

Badly maintained humidiers can endanger the health. If the unit is insufcient maintained 

ill-making germs may grow in the water reservoir of the Condair ABS3 and may can affect the air

passing through the humidier.

Prevention: the Condair ABS3 must be cleaned in the prescribed intervals according to the infor-

mation given in chapter 6 “Maintenance". The cleaning works must be carried out correctly and

the air lter must be replaced after their prescribed lifetime has elapsed. 

Behaviour in case of danger

If it is suspected that safe operation is no longer possible, then the Condair ABS3 should imme-

diately be shut down and secured against accidental power-up according to chapter 5.4. This

can be the case under the following circumstances:

– if the Condair ABS3 is damaged

– if the Condair ABS3 is no longer operating correctly

– if connections and/or piping are not sealed

– if electrical cables are defective

– if the Condair ABS3 is no longer fastened correctly.

All persons working with the Condair ABS3 must report any alterations to the unit that may affect

safety to the owner without delay.

Prohibited modications to the unit

No modications must be undertaken on the Condair ABS3 without the express written consent

of the manufacturer.

For the replacement of defective components use exclusively original accessories and spare parts

available from your Condair supplier.

7 Discharge hood, rotatable

3.2 Principle of operation

The Condair ABS3 operates according to the atomization principle.

The water is drawn in through cone (4) from the water reservoir (3) and is hurled from the atomiser

disk (5) against the atomiser collar (8), thereby producing aerosols (fog). The level in the water res-

ervoir is monitored and controlled with the oat switch (10).

The fan attached to the cone draws in room air through the air lter (1) on the bottom of the base 

unit. This air transports the aerosols to the atomiser outlet (7) and distributes them in the room.

The humidier is controlled via an external On/Off humidistat or an external 0-10V continuous humid-

ity controller which opens and closes the inlet valve. When controlled via the external continuous

humidity controller the inlet valve is opened and closed cyclically, depending on the control signal.
