HANDLING WITH CRANE: suitable for both TRAILER and POLE versions with or without base. 
Use chains or bands with lifting force of at least 2200 lbs. and complete with two lifting hooks. Verify that the 
bands or the chains are long enough to avoid them touching the metal parts of the Machine. 
Hook and fix the band or the chain to the provided blocking pins only. 

 

 

INSTALLATION 

 
Before  the  installation,  verify  that  the  ground  is  adequate  to  support  the  weight  of  the  Machine  and  in  the 
case of POLE versions verify that the ground is flat and even.  The installation must be carried out only by 
qualified and authorized staff.   

 
 
OPERATING PRINCIPLE 

 
The HD 160, HD 230, and HD 300 are dust suppression systems. These machines use water atomization to 
capture dust particles (including silica) in the atmosphere. 
 

 
MAIN COMPONENTS 

 
The  machine  includes  a  Cannon,  a  Multi-Zone  Crown,  a  Column  Frame,  a  Filter,  Zone  Valves  (electric 
versions are optional) a PLC Control Panel, and a Pump. 
 

Cannon and Multi-Zone Crown 

The ventilation and spray system unit have sufficient water flow to accommodate the air volume and thrust 
created  from  the  cannon  propeller.    The  water  spray  nozzles  are  located  along  the  circumference  of  the 
crowns. A heating kit (optional) can be installed in order to prevent icing. 
 

Column Frame  

The  FogCannon  is  installed  on  a  column  frame  where  the  raising  and  rotation  devices  are  also  mounted. 
These devices, which can be controlled electrically, manually or in Remote mode, serve to adjust the rotation 
angle and to make the fogcannon work within the selected angles set up at the user’s own discretion. 
 

Filter  

The unit is fitted with a 100 mesh filter that removes impurities that can clog the nozzles. An additional pre-
filter may be recommended for some applications.  
 

Zone Valves 

Manual or electric (optional) valves control the water flow to the various zones on the crown.  The HD range 
includes  a  crown  that  has  2  or  3  zones  depending  on  the  machine  design.    The  unit  can  operate  with 
individual zones or all zones simultaneously.  The water flow depends on the number of zones working, the 
nozzle size in each zone, and the operating pressure of the pump.  See the 

OPERATING FLOW OPTIONS

 

table below.   
 
The  electric  zone  valves  (optional)  are  controlled  from  the  PLC  panel  or  from  the  Remote  Control 
Transmitter.    When  the  electric  valves  are  turned  off,  they  automatically  drain  any  remaining  water  in  the 
zone lines.  It is recommended to open all drain ports on the unit after each use.    
 

PLC Control Panel 

The  PLC  control  panel  allows  the  starting  of  the  fan,  the  pump,  the  electric  zone  valves  (optional),  and 
control  the  electric  oscillation  and  electric  tilt  (optional)  of  the  FogCannon.    The  panel  also  allows  for 
programming the cycling of the unit.   

 
Pump 

The pump is housed on the outer column frame and is used to increase the water supply pressure.  
Increased pressure will improve the atomization of the water droplets and the effectiveness of the unit.  The 
pump is equipped with a pressure gauge and pressure switch which will terminate the pumps operation if the 
water supply is insufficient.
