Steam Distribution 
 
Blower Version (6000-1,2) 
The 6000 Series Steam Humidifier with the built in 
blower pack should be mounted a minimum of 18” from 
the ceiling. There should also be 5' of horizontal 
clearance in front of the unit to prevent stem from 
condensing on obstructions (See Figure 1). There is an 
adjustable louver to adjust the direction of the steam 
plume. 
DUCTED VERSION (6000-3,4) 
Herrmidifier supplies a stainless steel duct distributor for 
injecting pure steam into the duct.  This can be installed 
in the bottom or the side of the duct (See Figure 5). 
When installing in the side of the ductwork make sure it 
is positioned to allow condensate to drain back down the 
steam hose. The duct distributor pipe has a built in pitch 
to allow condensate to drain back into the hose. The 
hose must be installed with a minimum 8% (1” per foot) 
pitch back to the humidifier to allow condensate to drain 
back to the steam cylinder (See Figures 5 & 6). A 
minimum of 5 feet downstream clearance before any 
bends or obstructions is recommended for most 
applications (See Figure 2). However, different 
psychrometric conditions may require greater or lesser 
steam absorption distances. A minimum duct 
temperature of 60 degrees F is recommended. 
Temperatures below this may cause condensation to 
form in the duct. Lined duct may be used if the thickness 
is 1” or less.  
 
Distributor Mounting Instructions  
Sheet metal Duct: 
Make a 1-1/4" hole in the duct at desired location. Insert 
duct distributor and secure with self-tapping sheet metal 
screws (supplied by others). 
WARNING! 
Do not adjust this louver to extreme angles as it
will restrict the airflow causing condensation to
form around the steam distribution manifold. 
 
Fiberboard Duct: 
Make a 1-1/4" hole in the duct at desired location. Insert 
duct distributor and mark the four holes on flange. Drill 
(4) ¼”- holes at marked locations. Cut an access hole in 
duct and install the enclosed tee nuts from the inside of 
the duct. Fasten distributor with enclosed ¼” bolts. 
WARNING! 
Locate away from areas where people can walk
into steam path.
