<p>The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for humidifying the air, particularly of industrial areas, wherein the actual moisture content of the inside air is determined continuously or cyclically by a measuring and control unit 2 and compared with a desired moisture content of the inside air which can be preset (difference between desired value and actual value). If there is a difference between desired value and actual value, a water supply line and a compressed-air supply line 6, 7 of an atomizer nozzle unit 5 can be actuated in the opening sense. In order to be able to avoid dripping of the atomizer nozzle unit effectively with structurally simple means, the pressure of the compressed air to be supplied to the atomizer nozzle unit 5 is controlled depending on the difference between desired value and actual value and the amount of water to be supplied to the atomizer nozzle unit 5 is variable depending on the set air pressure. For this purpose, the apparatus according to the invention has a valve arrangement which is constructed in the form of a pressure reducing valve 10 which is disposed in the compressed-air supply connection line 7 of the atomizer nozzle unit 5. The water supply connection line 6 of the atomizer nozzle unit 5 can be connected to a water tank 11 which is substantially at atmospheric pressure. The outlet of the compressed-air supply line 7, 7.1, 7.2 at the atomizer nozzle side is arranged in front of the outlet at the atomizer nozzle side in the outflow direction. <IMAGE></p> |
