# Industrial Specification: Humidifier

## 1. Technical Definition
A device that increases humidity levels in air by adding water vapor.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **20-95% relative humidity output at 0.5-2.0 L/h water vaporization rate, 5-40°C ambient temperature, 85-265 VAC input**. Failure boundary: **Ultrasonic transducer piezoelectric element fracture at &gt;2.5 MHz resonant frequency deviation, heating element burnout at &gt;120°C surface temperature, water level sensor failure at &lt;5 mm or &gt;150 mm detection range**, Mechanism: **Piezoelectric ceramic depolarization above Curie temperature (120°C for PZT-5A), electrolytic corrosion at anode with current density &gt;15 A/dm², capillary condensation fouling at &lt;0.3 μm pore diameter**.
