WORKING PRINCIPLE

Ultrasonic Humidifier uses the ultrasonic high-frequency oscillator to break up water into tiny water particles with the diameter of about 1-5 m. The ventilation system blows out this water into the dry air where they evaporate to give the required humidity. The clearly visible smooth and even fog can be seen out of the unit.

IMPORTANT

1. The working environment for humidifier is when temperature is between 5 to 40 degrees Celsius, and relative humidity is lower than 80%RH.
2. Use clean water with temperature lower than 40^ C (distilled water is recommended).
3. Clean water tank and water filter when using again after a long time.
4. Soak the water filter for 24 hours before first use.

FUNCTION DESCRIPTION

Relative Humidity

1. The percentage of water mist in a given space with a given air temperature is named as relative humidity, usually marked as %RH, i.e. 45%RH. The air contains water mist more or less. The proportion of water mist to the air varies according to different air temperatures. The higher the temperature, the more water mist inhaled in the air.
2. In the winter, the cold air outside enters the room and becomes warmer by the higher temperature in the room. As a result, the relative humidity decreases. If you want to keep the healthy environmental humidity, we need to increase the mist volume in the air. The humidifier can do that for us.
3. Relative humidity in different environments suitable for people:

○ Bedroom, living room: 45-64%RH

○ Patient's room: 40-55RH

• Room with computer, experiment equipments: 45-60%RH
  ○ Room with piano: 40-60%RH
  o Museum, exhibition hall, and library: 40-50%RH

Water filter:

1. Cation exchange resin filter soften the hard water.
2. Cation exchange resin filter demineralize the water.

OPERATION PROCEDURE

1. Put the machine on a flat surface and take off the cover.
2. Lift the water tank, turn upside down and unscrew the water filter.
3. Fill the water into the water tank by the filler located on the bottom of the tank.
4. After pouring the water, screw the cap with the filter tightly and place tank on the base of the device. Part of the water overflows from the water tank into the water container in the device base.
5. Put the cover on water tank.
6. Check if the rated voltage meets the input voltage and plug into the socket. Display shows the symbol POWER ⏻
7. Touch the symbol POWER on the machine; the background LED light will be on. The machine will begin to work in AUTO mode.
   Display shows AUTO symbol and shows current humidity and current temperature alternately in 30 seconds. After 15 seconds without any operation, the display will become dim, touch any key except power key to wake up the display.
   In Auto mode, the device determines the optimal humidity according to current temperature and starts to achieve it at maximum power. When the current humidity is lower than the humidity showed in the table, it is in high speed operation. When the humidity is reached, the machine will be in low speed operation. The device checks the accordance of the temperature level and the humidity level every 1 minute.

1. Timer setting: There are 12 timer settings. Touch the symbol TIME, the LED display will show the desired setting timer. Touch till “--:--” display on the LED, timer setting is cancelled. The timer shows the rest operation time and decreases by 1 minute, i.e., if the timer is set at 12 hours, LED display shows 11:30 after 30 minutes. To know what time have been set, just to touch any key except power key to wake up the display and then touch TIMER symbol. Touch again, to set timer again.

There is a shortcut for timer setting. Touching the symbol TIMER to increase timer, meanwhile touching symbol MAX/MIN can reduce timer.

1. Touch the symbol MAX / MIN AUTO mode is cancelled and the mist output is in the first speed. You may select 3 desired levels of mist volume. The corresponding mist output symbol

shows on the display with different running speed.

In mist output level 1, the is running in low speed,

level 2 is running in middle speed, level 3 is running in high speed. Touch the symbol again, to choose AUTO mode.

1. Constant humidity: Before you touch the symbol HUMIDITY, LED display shows the current humidity. You may set the humidity arranged from 40%RH to 75%RH. Touch once, it will increase by 5%RH. When it reaches 75%RH, touch again, it will show “Co” and flash for 3 seconds to exit humidity setting function and back to Auto mode. After you set the expected humidity, the display shows the

symbol, the machine will keep the memory and confirm after 5 seconds. 5 seconds later, the symbol %RH will blink and LED display shows the current humidity. Touch again, it shows the expected humidity setting. If the expected humidity is less than the current humidity, the machine will be in sleeping state. But if the expected humidity is 3% higher than the current humidity, the humidify function will work. Mist output speed cannot be setting during the constant humidity model.

There is a shortcut for humidity setting. Touching the symbol HUMIDITY is to increase humidity, meanwhile touching symbol MAX / MIN can reduce humidity.

1. First touch the symbol DEGERMING 🎨, the warm mist will come out after 10\~15 minutes. On the LED display, it shows the Heating symbol 🎨. Second touch, the Plasma generator works as well.
