OPERATING PRINCIPLE
OF THE ELECTRO-GEN
™
FOGGER
The
ELECTRO-GEN UNIT
is a dual purpose chemical application de-
vice: A THERMAL FOGGER which produces a very small size droplet
particle and an optional electric sprayer which produces a cold mist spray
similar to that produced by an aerosol can.

At the touch of the trigger, an electric pump draws solution from the solu-
tion reservoir. The solution is pressurized and forced through a specially
restricted orifice where the solution is atomized into a cold mist.
In the cold spraying mode the operator has a choice of utilizing water
based or solvent based formulations, such as fabric protectors, deodor-
ants, flame retardants, spotters, insecticides, etc.
Special Advisory
The use of resinous materials such as duct sealants, etc. may clog and
damage the unit and are to be avoided.

At the touch of the trigger, an electric pump forces solution drawn from the
solution reservoir through an atomizing nozzle and into a thermostatically
controlled heating chamber in the barrel. The solution is vaporized instantly
and a cloud of smokelike fog surges out of the end of the barrel.
Application Advisory
For odor removal applications
always
utilize ODORx® Thermo 55™. ODORx
Thermo 55 is ready-to-use and should not be diluted with water. For pest
control applications be sure insecticide label permits THERMAL FOGGING.
For best results
dry fog
is recommended. The dryer the fog the smaller
the droplets, resulting in improved penetration and economical treatment.
Dryness of the fog is controlled by the rate of solution passing through
the heating chamber. This flow rate is controlled by turning the adjustment
knob clockwise for a dryer fog, and counter clockwise for a damper fog.
