Herrmidifier Co 6000 Manuel D’Utilisation

Mounting 
 
The cabinet is designed to safely contain the working 

components of the Herrmidifier 6000 series humidifier 

and dissipate heat to protect the electronics. Locate 
humidifier, steam pipe and accessories in a manner to 

allow routine inspection and any necessary 

maintenance. DO NOT install the unit above (such as 
false ceilings)  or around valuable property, where a 

malfunction could cause damage. Correct positioning 

of the humidifier is important to allow for proper 
operation and easy maintenance. Minimum clearance 

around the cabinet should be maintained as follows: 

 
Remove foam packing from top of tank.  
Four lag bolts, (2) 5/16' and (2) 1/4, are supplied with the 
6000 unit. Install the top two lag bolts (5/16”) according 
to the dimensions in Figure 3. Hang the unit on the wall, 
and then install the bottom two lag bolts (1/4”) and 
secure all four bolts. Be sure the unit is level and 
mounted directly to the wall to wood studs at least 2' 
thick (or equivalent). Operating weights are as follows: 

6000-1,2: 35 lbs. 
6000-3,4: 35 lbs. 

To make the necessary connections for water fill and 
drain the following steps are required: (refer to figure 4 

for locations) 

1.  Install external shutoff valve between the water supply and 

the humidifier for ease in servicing the unit. 

Connect water supply to the 1/4' compression fitting on the 
bottom of the cabinet.

CAUTION! 

Do not use reverse osmosis or demineralized
water treatment without first consulting the
factory. This  water may not be sufficiently
conductive to allow proper operation. Consult
factory if water is outside the range of allowable
conductivities. Do not use hot water. 

Connect the ¾” tube from the accessory pack to the drain 
reservoir. Cut hose to necessary length.

WARNING! 

Do not mount any controls inside the unit or tap
power from any location in the unit, except as
stated in these instructions.  Do not place
objects near the cabinet.  Do not attach to dry
wall without studs.  At least one 5/16” and one
¼” lag bolt must be located on a stud.  

Insert the other end of the tube into a minimum 6” vertical 
length of 1-1/4' minimum I.D. copper line. The balance of 
the drain line should be 1” I.D. minimum with a minimum 
1/8” per foot slope. (See Figure 4, page 8)

WARNING! 

If the drain line is exposed, it is recommended
that it be insulated for safety.  Do not use PVD
drain line unless “Drain Tempering” is enabled
(see page 10, step 10). 

WARNING! 

Do not mount any controls inside the unit or tap
power from any location in the unit, except as
stated in these instructions.  Do not place
objects near the cabinet.  Do not attach to dry
wall without studs.  At least one 5/16” and one
¼” lag bolt must be located on a stud.  

Inlet water pressure must be in the range of 20-100
psig. Consult the factory if you are outside this range.
Softened water may be used but requires that the low
dram threshold be adjusted (page 13). Drain water
can be tempered to lower its temperature (refer to
page 10).
