Introduction The Power Fogger Industrial is a Microprocessor Controlled, Water Based Fog generating system. Microprocessor Control The PFI features dual microprocessor control. From temperature regulation to taper back flow control, all of the functions are monitored and processed by the two on-board processors. Water Base Fog Technology Water Base Fog technology is achieved by pumping a glycol/water mixture through a heat exchanger. This will vaporize the fluid as it passes through the hot un

Operation Procedure LSG MK II High Pressure w/ 20 & 50lbs Cylinders The Operation Procedures outlined in this section, refer to Figure A and Figure B on Page 9 and 10. 1. Place the fog machine’s output nozzle firmly against the center of the foam ring, sealing it to the input port of the LSG MK II. Tech Tip: Proper alignment can be observed by shining a flashlight into the 10” exit port of the LSG MK II and noting the fogger’s output nozzle is centered on the LSG MK II input port. 2. Connect

9. Verify cool temperature output by using your hand and passing it through the fog-CO2 output noting the temperature. 10. After use, turn off the valves and trigger the LSG MK II to depressurize the system before attempting to disconnect hoses. Note that the valves and lines may be extremely cold during operation. Prevent handling and flexing of lines when chilled. Figure A Liquid Carbon Dioxide LSG Control Signal Fog Fluid High Pressure Bottles without Siphon Tubes inverted to obtain li

Closed “Dry” Contact Show Control Operation Show Control Show control is achieved by connecting a “Dry” or zero voltage contact to the show control terminals. The Power Fog Industrial requires no power to signal the fog, only one set of contacts that close for the entire fogging cue. For Show Control Operation, the DMX Address must be set on 555. Closing the Show Control Remote terminals with dry contacts, triggers the following machine functions: C + 1 = On/ Off w/ Variflow C + 2 = LSG On

DMX Operation The Power Fog Industrial is equipped with DMX controls as a standard feature. 1. Attach a DMX signal to the DMX IN 5 pin connector on the rear of the unit. A terminator may be required on the DMX OUT connector in some applications. 2. Select a valid DMX address on the thumbwheel selector for the base address of the fogger. If an air option is present 3 consecutive address will be required. Base DMX= fog rate controlled 0-100%, DMX+1=LSG power on above 50%, and DMX+2= air on abo
