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 humidiers can endanger the health. If the unit is insufcient maintained
ill-making germs may grow in the water reservoir of the Condair ABS3 and may can affect the air
passing through the humidier.
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 modications to the unit
No modications 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.

4 Cone with fan
5 Atomiser disk
6 Motor
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 humidier 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.
