3.4 Functional description
ThesteamhumidierCondairCP3miniisapressurelesssteamgeneratorthatutilizesanelectrode
heating.ThesteamhumidierCondairCP3miniisdesignedforairhumidicationviaasteamdistribu-
tor(unitversionsCondairCP3miniPD..)orviatheintegratedventilationunit(unitversionsCondair
CP3miniPR..).
Steam generation
Anytimesteamisrequested,theelectrodesaresuppliedwithvoltage.Simultaneously,theinletvalve
opensandwaterentersthesteamcylinderfromthebottomviawatercupandsupplyline.Assoon
astheelectrodescomeincontactwiththewater,currentbeginstoowbetweentheelectrodes,
eventuallyheatingandevaporatingthewater.Themoretheelectrodesurfaceisexposedtowater,
thehigheristhecurrentconsumptionandthusthesteamcapacity.
Uponreachingtherequestedsteamcapacity,the inlet valve closes. If the steam generationde-
creasesbelowacertainpercentageoftherequiredcapacity,duetoloweringofthewaterlevel(e.g.
becauseoftheevaporationprocessordrainage),theinletvalveopensuntiltherequiredcapacity
isavailableagain.
Iftherequiredsteamcapacityislowerthantheactualoutput,theinletvalveiscloseduntilthedesired
capacityisachievedbyloweringofthewaterlevel(evaporationprocess).
Level monitoring
Asensorprovidedinthesteamcylindercoverdetectswhenthewaterlevelgetstoohigh.Themo-
mentthesensorcomesincontactwithwater,theinletvalvecloses.
Drainage
Asaresultoftheevaporationprocess,theconductivityofthewaterincreasesduetoanescalating
mineralconcentration.Eventually,aninadmissiblyhighcurrentconsumptionwouldtakeplaceifthis
concentrationprocesswerepermittedtocontinue.Topreventthisconcentrationfromreachinga
value,unsuitablyhighfortheoperation,acertainamountofwaterisperiodicallydrainedfromthe
cylinderandreplacedbyfreshwater.

3.4 Functional description
The steam humidier Condair CP3mini is a pressureless steam generator that utilizes an electrode
heating. The steam humidier Condair CP3mini is designed for air humidication via a steam distribu-
tor (unit versions Condair CP3mini PD..) or via the integrated ventilation unit (unit versions Condair
CP3mini PR..).
Steam generation
Any time steam is requested, the electrodes are supplied with voltage. Simultaneously, the inlet valve
opens and water enters the steam cylinder from the bottom via water cup and supply line. As soon
as the electrodes come in contact with the water, current begins to ow between the electrodes,
eventually heating and evaporating the water. The more the electrode surface is exposed to water,
the higher is the current consumption and thus the steam capacity.
Upon reaching the requested steam capacity, the inlet valve closes. If the steam generation de-
creases below a certain percentage of the required capacity, due to lowering of the water level (e.g.
because of the evaporation process or drainage), the inlet valve opens until the required capacity
is available again.
If the required steam capacity is lower than the actual output, the inlet valve is closed until the desired
capacity is achieved by lowering of the water level (evaporation process).
Level monitoring
A sensor provided in the steam cylinder cover detects when the water level gets too high. The mo-
ment the sensor comes in contact with water, the inlet valve closes.
Drainage
As a result of the evaporation process, the conductivity of the water increases due to an escalating
mineral concentration. Eventually, an inadmissibly high current consumption would take place if this
concentration process were permitted to continue. To prevent this concentration from reaching a
value, unsuitably high for the operation, a certain amount of water is perio dically drained from the
cylinder and replaced by fresh water.
Control
The steam production can be controlled steplessly via the internal or an external continuous controller
or with an On/Off control via an external humidistat.

4 Operation
Proceed as follows when putting the unit into operation:
1. Examine the steam humidier and installation for possible damage.
DANGER!
Damaged devices or devices with damaged installation may present danger to human life or
cause severe damage to material assets.
Damaged units and/or units with damaged or faulty installation must not be operated.
2. Check whether the front panel is mounted and xed with the screw.
3. Open the lter valve (or the shut-off valve, respectively) in the water supply line.
4. Verify the set humidity value at the humidity controller or at the humidistat, and readjust as re-
quired.
5. Switch on the service switch for mains supply.
6. Actuate the unit switch of the steam humidier. Switch lights up.
4.1 Commissioning
The steam humidier carries out a system test, during which all the LEDs
light up and the opposite display is shown.
If a failure occurs on the system test, a corresponding error message is
shown in the display.
After the system test the unit is in normal operation mode. The display
shows the standard operating display (rst page of the indication level).
Note: The contents of the standard operating display depends on the actual
operating status and on the conguration of the Condair CP3mini and can
differ from the opposite display.
As soon as the humidity controller or the humidistat requires humidity, power
is switched on for heating. The inlet valve opens (slight delay) and the steam
cylinder lls with water. As soon as the submerged electrodes heat the water
up the green LED lights up and after a few minutes (approx. 5–10 minutes,
depending on the conductivity of the water) steam is produced.
Note: If the Condair CP3mini is operated with water of low conductivity it may happen that the
maximum steam capacity is not reached in the rst few hours of operation. This is normal. As soon
as the conductivity has reached a sufcient level (due to the vaporisation process) the humidier
will reach the maximum steam capacity.

1. Dismount the steam cylinder (see chapter 5.3.1).
2. Undo the two screws of the intermediate panel. Then, carefully remove the intermediate panel to
the front, swivel it to the left and hang it onto the pins of the back panel.
3. Undo water supply and water drain pipe.
4. Unit type PR.. only: Disconnect the electric cables, then remove the ventilation unit together with
the steam and condensate hose to the front.
5. Undo the attachment of the at ribbon cable on the tub (rubber band), then pull cable out of the
bracket.
6. Release the xing clip of the water cup, then carefully pull out the water cup together with the
hoses and tub to the front. While pulling out the parts disconnect the electric cables from the
drain pump and the inlet valve as well as the ground cable from the corresponding connector in
the water drain.
7. Now, the individual components of the water system can be separated for inspection and clean-
ing.
The installation of the components of the water system follows the reverse sequence. Before xing
the water hoses to the connector using the hose clamps, align the hoses in a way that they are not
twisted. Make sure all electric cables are reconnected correctly.

6 Fault elimination
6.1 Fault indication
Malfunctions during operation are indicated by a corresponding Warning or Fault message in the
display of the control unit (each warning and fault message is stored in the error list):
Warning messages (additionally to the warning message the red LED ashes)
Further operation is still possible. The control of the CP3mini checks whether there is a temporary
problem (e.g. water supply interrupted for a short time) or whether it can resolve the problem
by taking necessary measures. If the cause of the malfunction disappears of its own accord or
if the control can repair the malfunction, the alarm message will automatically switch off. If the
cause of the malfunction does not disappear even after a longer period of time, a fault message
is triggered.
Fault message (additionally to the fault message the red LED lights)
Further operation is normally not possible any longer, the unit is blocked. To eliminate the mal-
function see chapter 6.1 and 6.3.
Note: After eliminating the malfunction the fault message must be reset (see chapter 6.4).
By pressing the <Info> key additional information can be displayed for each warning and/or fault
message.

Important! Most operational malfunctions are not caused by faulty equipment but rather by improper
installation or disregarding of planning guidelines. Therefore, a complete fault diagnosis always in-
volves a thorough examination of the entire system. Often, the steam hose connection has not been
properly executed, or the fault lies with the humidity control system.
