ILS Live Steam humidifier
ILS humidifier by steamOvap is a live steam humidifier using steam from a central steam boiler.
ILS is conditioning and distributing steam in air handling unit or air duct.
ILS humidifier is available with steam jacketted horizontal ramp(s): model ILS-P or with steamOsorb vertical multi-ramps steam grid: model ILS-SO
ILS-P single ramp
ILS-P mini kit
ILS-P multi-ramp
ILS-P jacketed live steam
Steam is circulating into the jacketed pipe before to pass through the steam separator and being distributed into AHU or the air duct. The ILS-P includes the following components: strainer, separator, actuated control valve, pre-heated jacket steam ramp(s) and Float & Thermostatic condensate trap.
This old technology is still the best suited solution when clean steam from central boiler is available on site and humidification requirement correspond to the heating season, as the large heat gain from the steam jacket will contribute to air heating.
Steam injection is against the air flow is ensuring a very short non wetting distance.
ILS-P is available in 3 different configurations:
-
- Single ramp
- mini kit, very compact for small duct
- or multi ramp, to be field assembled
-
Easy to install
- ILS-P Single ramp & mini kit configurations are factory assembled
- Drip free steam guaranteed.
- Made to measure to duct dimensions
-
Easy to control
- 1 to 100% fully modulating steam production.
- 0-10Vdc or 2-10Vdc control signal on 24Vac actuated control valve
- Interlock with Air Proving switch and RH% Hi-Limit humidistat
- Optional safety condensate thermostat (model KCT)
- Peace of mind for start-up and operation.
- Optional BACnet remote control
-
Durability
- Stainless steel construction of grade 304.
- Optional S/S trim and seat for valve suitable for DI water steam boiler
- Longest warranty of the industry: 3 years !
ILS-SO with atmospheric condensate
ILS-SO with pressurized condensate
ILS-SO
Vertical multi-ramps
ILS-SO using steamOsorb vertical multi-ramps is a simple and very cost effective way to humidify when pressurized clean steam is available on site and humidification requirement correspond to the heating season, as heat gain from the steam ramps will contribute to air heating.
Any condensate forming in the vertical steam ramps will fall and collect into the horizontal header, before to be directed to the drain or re-pressurized with pressure motive pump.
Drip free steam distribution is ensured by the special design of the nozzle.
Nozzles are placed injecting steam perpendicular to air flow.
ILS-SO is supplied with strainer, separator, actuated control valve, steamOsorb steam grid and Float & Thermostatic condensate trap.

ILS-SO with atmospheric condensate
ILS-SO with pressurized condensate
ILS-SE high efficiency
Vertical multi-ramps
ILS-SE Live steam humidifier combines the proven and simple Live steam humidification with latest sustainable developments.
Heat gain to air flow is minimal: it is a good humidification solution for year round humidification requirement.
The very few condensate forming in the steam ramp will fall and collect into the horizontal header, before to be directed to the drain or be re-pressurized with pressure motive pump.
Drip free steam distribution is ensured by the special design of the nozzles.
ILS-SE is supplied with strainer, separator, actuated control valve, high efficiency steamOsorb steam grid and Float & Thermostatic condensate trap.

Mounting options for ILS-SO & ILS-SE
Option -FF, Frame with flange allow for ILS-SO or ILS-SE mounting on small ducts equipped with flanges.
steamOsob header is then placed beneath the duact outside of the airflow removing obstruction and allowing for more steam capacity and shorter non wetting distance.
Option -FI, Frame for Insertion allow for ILS-SO or ILS-SE mounting on small ducts by insertion.
steamOsob header is then placed beneath the duact outside of the airflow removing obstruction and allowing for more steam capacity and shorter non wetting distance.
