Placing a dispersion assembly in a primary/secondary system
(see Figure 61-1)
This type of system is commonly applied to facilities where most
of the building requires one level of humidity (typically to meet
comfort requirements) and part of the building requires additional
humidity. In Figure 61-1, the primary humidification system is
within the main air handling unit. The secondary humidification
system is located close to the point of steam discharge into the
secondary area.
Sensor and transmitter locations are critical (see Figure 62-1 on
next page)
Sensor or transmitter location has a significant impact on
humidifier performance. In most cases, we recommend that you do
not interchange duct and room humidity devices. Room humidity
devices are calibrated with zero or little airflow; whereas duct
humidity devices require air passing across them. Recommended
sensor locations (next page):
