Z100 ASSEMBLY

The Field Controls Steam Humidifier now comes equipped with a factory installed Z100, which acts as a sacrificial metal. Put simply, minerals in the water will attack and cling to the Z100. The minerals will not attack the other components inside the humidifier as long as the Z100 is present and active.

This results in a dramatic decrease in mineral and scale build up on the critical components inside the tank. In particular, it means less scale build up on the heating element which is subject to damage from excessive scaling and over heating. This also means that efficiency stays high and preventive maintenance is faster and easier.

The Z100 is positioned on the baffle plate inside the tank and is easily removed and replaced. Remember that the Z100ʼs job is to become the target of mineral attack, so it will be heavily covered with scale and should be replaced annually for best results.

To remove the Z100 you must have already unplugged and shutdown your steam humidifier and allowed it to cool. The water tank has been drained, the water supply, drain lines and electrical wiring have been disconnected and the unit has been removed from the duct.

Refer to the blow up view on Page 11. Using a phillips screwdriver, remove the two screws that hold the baffle plate to the tank. Lift the baffle slightly back to clear the water probe and then straight up and out of the tank. You can then see the round Z100, or rather what is left of it after a single season. Notice the heavy scale build up on the Z100 that would have been on your element, if the Z100 was not there. Use a rag or pliers to grasp the edges of the Z100 and simply unscrew it from the baffle plate. Rinse off or wipe away any residual scale from the baffle plate and install a new Z100. Leave a slight gap between the bottom of the Z100 and the baffle plate. Now re-insert the baffle plate into the tank and secure with the two screws that were removed previously. Itʼs that simple.

The Z100 can also benefit the older model steam humidifiers. Simply lay the Z100 down into the baffle plate in the same location as the factory installed model. DO NOT lay the Z100 down into the main tank. It may come in contact with the heating element and damage it. The dimensions of the baffle plate prevent the Z100 from falling down into the tank.

S2000 specifications

Field Controls S2000 is an advanced indoor air quality solution designed for enhancing the cleanliness and safety of indoor environments. It primarily functions as a whole-house air purification system, effectively removing airborne pollutants such as dust, allergens, and biological contaminants, thereby promoting healthier living spaces.

One of the standout features of the S2000 is its multi-stage filtration process. This system utilizes a combination of pre-filters, HEPA filters, and activated carbon filters. The pre-filter captures larger particles, extending the life of the more delicate HEPA filter, which is capable of trapping 99.97% of particulates as small as 0.3 microns. The activated carbon filter adsorbs odors, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and other gaseous pollutants, ensuring that the air emitted is not only clean but also fresh.

The S2000 incorporates advanced technologies that set it apart from standard air purifiers. One notable innovation is its ultraviolet (UV) light technology, which further enhances the purification process by neutralizing bacteria, viruses, and mold spores that may pass through the filters. This dual-action approach ensures that the air is not merely filtered but also sanitized, making it an excellent choice for households with allergies or respiratory conditions.

In terms of ease of use, the Field Controls S2000 features a user-friendly interface that includes an intuitive control panel. Users can easily monitor filter status, adjust fan speeds, and set timers for operation, allowing for customizable air purification according to specific needs. Additionally, the system is designed for quiet operation, ensuring minimal disruption in the home environment.

Energy efficiency is another characteristic that makes the S2000 appealing to consumers. It is designed to consume minimal power while maximizing airflow, allowing it to maintain a clean air supply without significantly impacting energy bills.

The S2000 is compatible with a wide range of HVAC systems, making it a versatile addition to various residential settings. Its compact design allows for flexible installation, whether it's integrated within an existing ductwork system or used as a standalone unit. Overall, the Field Controls S2000 combines cutting-edge technology with practical features to deliver comprehensive air purification for healthier indoor living.
