INSTRUCTION MANUAL THERMAL FOGGER VECTORFOG H500/H500SF

Only fog for short periods at a time, when there is not much wind and moving away from the projecting smoke.

It’s essential to read the manufacturer’s instructions of the chemical being used before you start applying, including

diluting ratio and safety precautions.

Only experienced personnel should operate this equipment.

You must exercise caution if fuel is spilt, in order to avoid the risk of fire.

CAUTION MARKS

Please read this manual before using the equipment.

You must wear protective equipment (face/breathing mask, protective clothing, gloves,

etc.) when handling potentially hazardous chemicals.

It is advisable to wear ear plugs to protect from the high noise produced by this machine

The interior of this machine heats up to extrem high temperatures. Do not add fuel or

chemicals during the operation of the machine or when it is hot after use.

Avoid fogging chemicals upwind.

High voltage can be dangerous. Do not turn on the machine when the spark plugs

electrode is exposed.

BASIC CONCEPT OF THERMAL FOGGING

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

VectorFog™ Thermal Foggers are powered using the pulse jet principle. Pulse jet engines don’t have any moving

parts; instead they have a funnel shaped combustion chamber similar to a rocket engine which opens into a long

resonator or exhaust pipe. VectorFog thermal foggers have an auto start and operate through compressed air via a

compressor. When the auto start button is pressed, the compressed air pressurizes the fuel tank, causing fuel to flow

to the injector and then into the carburettor. Air/fuel mixture is then ignited by a spark plug in the carburettor. The

spark is created by an ignition coil which is powered by the vehicles battery. The ignition coil, battery and

compressor are all housed inside of the main body of the machine. Operating at its optimum performance,

combustion and injection is repeated with a frequency of around 200-250 cycles per second. Once the machine

starts, the chemical tank also becomes pressurized by means of a non-return valve. A close valve and supply valve

are then opened to allow the flow of the chemical/oil solution in to the resonator. At this stage the solution is

heated up to around 1,400º C and dispersed into millions of tiny droplets (around 10-30 microns in size) creating a

dense and visible smoke.

CHECKLIST BEFORE STARTING THE UNIT

Fill the fuel tank

Fill the tank with undiluted petrol using a funnel. Fill the tank to a third of its capacity. When you finish filling the

tank, close the tank cap tightly. Note: Please make sure you only add the prescribed amount of fuel.

Fill the chemical tank and connect to the thermal fogger

Pour the special fogging chemical mixture into the chemical tank. It is important not to add more chemical mixture

than it’s needed. Leaving remaining chemical in the tank after use, could affect the performance of the machine next

time you use it, as deposits may solidify in the system. When you finish filling the tank, close the tank cap tightly.

Connect the power and remote control

Connect the 12V power lead (right) and remote control cable (left) as indicated in the picture below. Once plugged

in, connect the power lead directly to the battery using the cigarette lighter plug. Red (Positive), Black (Negative).

Once connected, check that the green power light on the control remote is on. Note: Please make sure solution tank

switch on the remote control is turned to the “OFF” position before connecting the power

Fuel Intake (right resonator)

Fuel Intake (left resonator)

To turn on the machine

Making sure that the solution switch on the remote control is on the “OFF”position. Press the start button (one

resonator at a time) and keep it pressed for 5 seconds after you hear combustion starting (sounds like a small

explosion). It is necessary to keep the machine on for about 10 seconds to warm up before turning on the solution

switch. TIP: If the machine fails to start, press the button “KNOCKING” so pressure in the fuel tank can be re-

established. Press the start button again and repeat the above procedure until it starts.

To start fogging

Once the machine has heated up for 10 seconds, flick the solution switch to the ON position. When you are ready to

start fogging, turn clockwise the Chemical Flow Regulator (FIG 1.12). Note: This valve also regulates the amount of

flow/chemical being used, by turning it left to right.

To turn off the machine

Flick the solution switch to the OFF position and press the STOP button. Turn the Chemical Flow Regulator anti-

clockwise to stop the flow of chemical. Tip: After use, keep the machine in operation for 5 seconds to help get rid-off

any chemical mixture still in the system.

MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the Chemical Tank and Pipes

Fill the chemical tank with 25% of clean water and turn on the unit. This will prevent corrosion and the accumulation

of chemical deposits in the tank and pipes.

Spark Plug Maintenance

Remove the spark plug using a spanner or spark plug remover. Remove any carbon deposits between the electrode

and the earth section with a wire brush. Make sure that there is a space of 3 to 5 mm between the electrode and the

earth.

Fuel injector Maintenance

Unscrew the fuel Injector situated on the back of the machine (FIG 2.4). Clean the injector with compressed air.

Maintaining the valve petal

Remove the top of the carburettor. Check the gasket and valve for any distortions or cracks. If it’s damaged, you will

need to replace this part. TIP: It’s important to assemble the parts of the carburettor in the order there where

disassembled. The distance between the petal valve and the valve plate o should be approximately 1 mm.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If there is no ignition:

• Listen for any noises coming from the engine

If there is noise coming from the engine but there is no ignition, this could be because the engine has flooded (an

over-supply of fuel in the carburettor). To solve this problem, first press the button “KNOCKING” and then press the

“START” button until you hear the machine ignite. Repeat this procedure several times if it doesn’t start the first

time.

• Check the spark plug

Remove the spark plug using a spanner or spark plug remover. Hold the plug by its plastic cap and press the start

button to check if there is a spark between the electrode and the earth. Also you should hear if there buzzing sound

from the ignition coil. Note: The ignition coil can be accessed through the “Rear access cover”

If there is no spark:

Clean any carbon deposits in between the electrode and earth with a wire brush.

Check that there is a distance of 3 to 5 mm between the electrode and earth.

Check that the vehicle’s battery is fully charged.

Check that the battery and ignition coil are working. If necessary, replace the battery or coil

Clean the contacts and check all the wires

Once these checks have been carried out, try starting the machine again.

• Check the fuel is being injected into the carburettor.

Examine the fuel hose connected to the fuel flow control valve and injector (FIG 2.2) is not blocked. If there is a lack

of fuel adjust fuel supply with the fuel regulator valve. Make sure the fuel tank is full before starting the machine.

Make sure the seal in the petrol caps are not damaged. Make sure the caps are firmly closed. Check the fuel injector

(FIG 2.4). Clean the injector with compressed air if blocked.

STEP 1

STEP 2

• Check the Petal Valve.

Remove the spark plug cap, filter and unscrew the carburettor. Examine the petal valve to see if it’s damaged. If it’s

damaged, replace petal valve. TIP: It’s important to assemble the parts of the carburettor in the order there where

disassembled. The distance between the petal valve and the valve plate o should be approximately 1 mm.



The machine is turned on, but the engine works intermittently or stops:

• Examine the fuel tank assembly to check for any leakages.

After pressing the start button, cover the tank and connections with soap to check for leaks. If bubbles are observed,

the gasket needs replacing on the fuel tank cap or the tank itself.

• Clean the resonator.

Remove carbon deposits in the heat tube inside de resonator with the wire brush provided. Use and forward and

backward motion.

The machine doesn’t fog or doesn’t fog enough:

• Check that the chemical regulator is opened. This is done by turning it anticlockwise. Make sure that the Tank

Chemical Supply Valve is set to the open position.

• Unscrew the main chemical inlet nozzle from the resonator and clean it using compressed air to remove any

blockages.

• Check there is no leaks in the chemical tank. Blow compressed air backwards though the chemical tube from the

inlet nozzle to see if any bubbles appear. Replace leaking parts if necessary
