Armstrong Humidifiers-Let These Steam Humidifiers Work for You
Since 1938, Armstrong has led the way in saving energy, time and money through the design and manufacture of humidification appliances. Armstrong Humidifiers offer a good choice in appliance selection. Their patented Ionic Bed technology reduces operating costs as well as cleaning and maintenance time.
Armstrong’s HumidiClean Ionic Bed Technology
It has a fibrous filtering medium that traps solids from the water as the temperature rises. This reduces mineral build up on the heat exchanger and the walls of the reservoir. Once the ionic beds have absorbed the minerals to their capacity, it alerts the user so that the ionic beds can be changed. There are three key advantages of the Ionic Bed Technology:
1. Reduced frequency of heat exchanger cleaning and blow-down
2. Conserving water and energy
3. No excessive build up of heat exchanger surface temperature
Armstrong’s GFH Gas-Fired HumidiClean humidifier series features the revolutionary Ionic Bed Technology. The GFH uses natural gas or propane and is quite economical to operate at 81 percent efficiency. It is easy to use and is adaptable to various water qualities. Armstrong’s Cool Fog offers controlled injection of compressed air and water into the system providing humidity and evaporative cooling. A series of foggers are regulated from a central control panel to carefully regulate compressed air and water to create a highly controllable fog at less than 10% of the cost of an electric steam humidifier.
SteamEye is a wireless steam trap monitoring system specifically designed to constantly and accurately monitor steam traps and provide status updates every 3 minutes. It will detect a failed closed steam trap. The timely detection of these functions is critical to effective steam system management. A failed open trap will cause significant energy loss and downstream steam system problems. A steam trap that has failed to close can cause catastrophic equipment failure. Knowing when and how steam traps fail affords proactive, cost effective and preventative maintenance measures. The SteamEye starter kit encompasses sophisticated technology with the ease of wireless at a competitive market price.
The Armstrong HumidiPack,a prefabricated steam humidifier system, comes ready for insertion into the duct. It consists of a separator/header and multiple tube dispersion assembly. For use on pressurized steam, included are steam control valve, strainer, steam trap and a header drain trap. It is important to reduce the moisture, while admitting dry steam into the humidifier duct since the water-droplets from the dried steam before being absorbed by the air column inside the duct have to be prevented from colliding with any obstruction like vanes, coil, fan, filter and sensors. If that happens, the water accumulated due to non absorption may lead to serious safety concerns like water stagnation and corrosion. Therefore a shorter moisture non wetting distance is absolutely important in the proper functioning of the humidifier.
In conclusion of this humidifier review, one must say the presence of these accessories, which are compatible with any heating system, enable Armstrong humidifiers to ensure low maintenance by optimum resource utilization without compromising on the quality of steam ejected from the humidifiers.
