Fog machines and effect machines


The fog machine basically consists of a pump that pumps the fog fluid from a container into the heating element. The heating element and a controller. The fog fluid is vaporized in the heating element and powerfully ejected from the nozzle due to the resulting pressure. This can be up to 15m with large fog machines. Depending on the fog liquid, this creates a haze or a dense fog. Fog machines with LED lighting create a colored fog through the light when the fog is emitted and thus ensure great effects. A CO2 effect can also be created with a fog machine by using a CO2 fog fluid.

How much power does a fog machine need?

The power of a fog machine is given in watts, similar to household appliances. But how much power do I need to fog up my party room? In the following table we show which fog machine performance is sufficient to fog a room lightly or densely. Outdoor use generally requires more power because the fog dissipates faster. Here is our overview:
Performance
Room size (densely fooged)
Room size (lightly fooged)
Outdoor operation is suitable
400W20m²30m²No
700W25m²35m²No
1000W40m²50m²Yes

How does a fog machine work?

A fog machine basically consists of a pump that pumps the fog fluid from a container into the heating element. The heating element and a controller. The fog fluid is vaporized in the heating element and powerfully ejected from the nozzle due to the resulting pressure. This can be up to 15m with large fog machines. This creates a haze or a dense fog for each fog liquid.

Fog machines with special effects > Co2 effect and LED lighting

These smoke machines are often used as a show effect. A nice CO2 effect can also be created with a conventional fog machine and the right CO2 effect fluid. It is a very fast dissolving fog fluid. With which a short but exciting effect can be created. Blue Light Flash Fluid (CO2 effect) Item no. FL-5 FLASH 
Fog machines with LED lighting are also new. By coloring the fog, the LEDs are located directly at the fog output, great effects can be created. 

Which fog fluid do I have to use? 

We offer high-quality water-based fog fluids with a clearance certificate and tested according to EC regulations and risk assessments. These are particularly gentle on the fog machine and light effects and are odorless. There are fog fluids for different purposes and applications. Our blue special mix fluid creates a very dense and long-lasting fog. The fluid is also particularly well suited for hazer-like (fazer) machines that are operated with fog fluid. The fluid is also mainly used in fire brigade exercises to generate a strong, dense fog (smoke). 
The "Light" fog fluid creates a light, thin fog.  The "Flash / CO2" fog fluid is perfect for CO2 effects. It creates a quickly dissipating fog, perfect for short-lasting exciting show effects. The "Medium" fluid is our standard fluid for a medium-density, long-lasting fog. The fog liquids are available in 5L containers. Some also in 25L cans and 200L barrels. 
Our "Showfluid" is especially suitable for singers. It is a particularly pure fog fluid. It dissolves in a short time with almost no residue, so the audience does not experience any impairment of the performance.
