Abstract
A method of operating a humidifying module for an incubator, the humidifying module having a container with a water inlet and a steam outlet, a heating device which is arranged in the interior of the container, and a temperature sensor and a control circuit for controlling or regulating a water supply through the water inlet and/or for controlling or regulating a heat output of the heating device, wherein container is filled with water, at a maximum, so that a steam volume remains, in which there is steam generated when heating with the heating device, wherein part of the heating device protrudes from the water and projects into the steam volume, so that the steam can be superheated, and wherein the temperature sensor is arranged to directly or indirectly measure the temperature of the steam, the measured temperature being used as a control parameter by the control circuit, a humidifying module for an incubator for carrying out such a method, and an incubator with such a humidifying module.
