A process and a device are provided for regulating a respiration humidifier by the temperature measured in the breathing gas. The output of the heating or dispensing unit ( 15 ), which releases its moisture into a mixing chamber ( 11 ), to which breathing gas flowing in is admitted, is set as a function of the dew coating measured downstream of the mixing chamber ( 11 ) such that an electrical resistance or a capacitance measured in the breathing gas downstream of the mixing chamber ( 11 ) between at least two measuring points ( 4, 5 ) as an indicator of dew coating is in a preset range of desired values with a maximum and a minimum. |
