Stop the burglar in a few seconds
with a PROTECT Fog Cannon
Thank you for buying this PROTECT Fog Cannon. These instruc-
tions are intended for everyday users of the fog-protected
premises, and for the security supervisor with responsibility for
the entire alarm installation. Please read the following pages
carefully to ensure maximum security, satisfaction and product
lifetime.
PROTECT A/S is a wholly Danish-owned rm, with production
facilities in Aarhus – the second-largest city in Denmark. The
company is the world’s biggest manufacturer of fog cannon
products for burglary protection, and distributes to more than
50 countries.
A fog cannon is intended to serve as a supplementary security
product for an alarm system. A fog cannon is a generator that
uses a heating element to convert harmless liquid into a thick,
dry, white fog-like cloud. This fog has a disorienting effect
– and you cannot steal what you cannot see... Fog security
protection helps prevent theft, vandalism and robbery.
NB! PROTECT Fog Cannon products must only be installed
and serviced by a qualied alarm tter or electrician.
For additional information, see www.protectglobal.com.

Before use
Have you and/or others
been instructed in the
correct use of the alarm
system and fog protection
set-up? Before the alarm
tter leaves the premises,
all users should have re-
ceived instruction in how
the fog security system
works.
DON’T FORGET!
Have you or your alarm company remembered to inform the local
police and re service about your fog protection installation?
Make sure to inform your neighbours, if any, that you have installed
fog security protection.
Have you or your alarm company
remembered to place warning la-
bels on your windows and doors?
The yellow labels help prevent
break-ins, and provide valuable
information to cleaning staff and
others.
We recommend that you enter
into an annual service agreement
with your alarm company that in-
volves testing the fog cannon. See
elsewhere in these instructions.

Operation
The fog cannon is primed whenever the alarm system is activated. If
you then enter the secured area, both alarm and fog cannon will be
triggered.
When you disconnect the alarm, the fog cannon will be disconnected
automatically.
Depending on the installation
method and the fog cannon
model, it may take up to 45
minutes for the unit to become
warm enough to generate fog. We
recommend that you keep your
fog cannon products warmed up
at all times so they are ready to
generate fog as soon as the alarm
system is activated.
Every fog cannon is monitored by the alarm company from which it was
purchased (or the relevant subcontractor). The alarm company can
register activation of the fog cannon, attempted vandalism and errors.
An authorised alarm tter must be engaged to set the fogging time,
etc. and to replace the fog uid container (however, end users them-
selves can replace the uid container in PROTECT QUMULUS models
manufactured after 1 September 2014). The same as for model Xtratus.
Scan the codes with a smartphone to
check how to replace the fl uid container
in a QUMULUS model manufactured
after 1 September 2014 or a Xtratus.
PROTECT Xtratus = 8 min.
PROTECT FOQUS = 7 min.
PROTECT QUMULUS = 8-10 min.
PROTECT 600i = 10-15 min.
PROTECT 1100i = 20-25 min.*
PROTECT 2200i = 35-40 min.*
*We recommend that you keep
the power connected 24/7.
QUMULUS Xtratus
Cleaning and maintenance
Clean PROTECT Fog Cannon products with a damp cloth without any
cleaning agents, chemicals or solvents.
If you did not air the premises within 1 hour of a fog cannon being
activated, you should wipe down all horizontal surfaces with a
damp cloth without any cleaning agents, chemicals or solvents.
For additional details, see pages 10 and 11.
End users themselves can change the uid container in PROTECT
QUMULUS models manufactured after 1 September 2014. The same
as for model Xtratus. Fluid containers in all other models must only
be replaced by an authorised alarm tter. See the previous section
for details.

What the LEDs mean*
Low uid level: PROTECT Fog Cannon units emit audible (short
‘beeps’) and visual signals (ashing yellow LED on the front panel)
when the uid level is low.
Overview of LED signals:
• The green LED ashes when the fog cannon is connected to a
power supply. The green LED lights constantly when the fog can-
non is hot enough and ready to generate fog
• As mentioned above, the yellow LED will ash in the event of low
uid level
• All LEDs are extinguished when the alarm is connected
• Red LED:
- One ash every 10 sec. means mains power outage**
- Three ashes every 10 sec. indicates a signal from a re alarm
system to the fog cannon*
- Four ashes every 10 sec. means low battery charge**
- Constant ashing: Serious error that requires intervention from
the tter*
* Diodes for Xtratus:
See manual page 21

Warnings
Do not touch the nozzle, as it can become very hot and cause
burns. Never look directly into the nozzle.
Do not hang anything up immediately
in front of the fog cannon. We recom-
mend that you maintain a safety
distance of at least 35 cm.
PROTECT Fog Cannon units
are IP approved for indoor
use and must therefore not
be exposed to water and
moisture.
Spilled fog uid – in the form
of drips or splashes from
handling the uid and/or
installing the fog cannon –
must be removed imme-
diately, otherwise it may
constitute a slipping hazard.
The fog uid is a mixture of water and glycol; as such it must
not be ingested. Make sure to store the uid out of the reach of
children and pets. In the event that a large quantity of the uid is
ingested, contact a doctor without delay. In the event of contact
with the eyes, rinse immediately with clean water for at least 15
minutes. In the event of contact with the skin, wash thoroughly
with soap and rinse with clean water.
Make sure NEVER to connect the alarm system during working hours
while staff are present in the fog-protected rooms.
Min. 35 cm.

Instructions for preventing
unintentional activation
If the fog protection is activated unintentionally, contact the alarm
company’s control centre immediately. You should also inform the
police and re service without delay.
In order to prevent injury and/or damage to property, do not enter
a ‘fogged’ area until visibility permits. Always air premises for at
least 20 minutes after a fog cannon has been activated. We recom-
mend airing premises within one hour of a fog cannon having been
activated. See the section on cleaning and maintenance.
The applicable regulations concerning the installation of fog pro-
tection state that at least one verifying PIR sensor is to be installed
per fog cannon. Sensors of this kind ensure that the fog cannon only
generates fog when both the alarm system and the verifying sen-
sor receive a signal. In this way, it is possible to trigger the alarm
without the fog cannon generating fog. It is only when the verifying
sensor registers movement in the
room where the fog cannon is
tted that the unit will start to
generate fog.
The sensor (2) is a
‘conrmation’sensor
that is linked directly
to the fog cannon.
