ASD 10: 22 lbs/hr (8 kg/hr)

ASD: 25 lbs/hr (9 kg/hr)

BSD: 35 lbs/hr (13 kg/hr)

CSD: 115 lbs/hr (45 kg/hr)

STEAM LINE INSTALLATION

GUIDELINES

1.Nortec steam hose should only be used on short steam runs below 10 feet.

2.Ensure that no condensate produced in the steam line will remain trapped. Steam naturally flows upward and condensate naturally flows downward.

3.See material recommended for use in the chart below. To eliminate the metal corrosion, Nortec does not recommend the use of steel piping.

Please note that options shown in a bold-italic font requires that reducers be used at both ends. These extra large sizes are to allow for better condensation removal in long steam runs. These sizes will not permit you to use hose coupling to connect your self to either humidifier or distributors.
