Vector Fog VECTORFOG H400 Bedienungsanleitung

INSTRUCTION MANUAL THERMAL FOGGER VECTORFOG H400/H400SF

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

It’s essential to read the chemical manufacturer’s instructions 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 extreme high temperatures. Do not add fuel or

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

Avoid fogging chemicals upwind.

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

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 a rechargeable 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

Unpacking the unit

When unpacking the unit, please make sure that that the machine is not damaged and that all the accessories

mentioned in this manual are not missing.

Charge the battery

Make sure the right power supply is being used (110/220 volts). Connect the charger to the unit and then connect to

the mains. When first purchased, the machine requires around 8 to 10 hours to fully charge.

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.

6V Charger Point

Fill the chemical tank

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

needed. Once you have used the machine, please make sure there is no chemical left in the tank. Chemicals can

solidify and could block the system next time round. When you finish filling the tank, close the tank cap tightly.



To turn on the machine

Press the power button “START” and keep it pressed for 8 to 10 seconds once you hear combustion starting (sounds

like small explosions). After the engine starts, leave the machine to warm up for around 10 to 20 seconds before

opening the chemical valves.

TIP: If the machine fails to start, press the STOP button (air release) so pressure can be re-established. Press and hold

the start button again for 10 seconds until it starts. If it fails to start, repeat the procedure.

To start fogging

Once the machine has heated up for 10 seconds, first turn the “Close Valve” and then the chemical supply valve

slowly counter clockwise. On SF models you will need to switch the directional valve situated on top of the resonator

to fog oil based chemicals, by turning it clockwise.

To turn off the machine

Turn the “Chemical Supply Valve”clockwise to stop the supply of chemical to the resonator. Before turning the

“Close Valve”off, keep it running for 5-10 seconds to get rid-off any chemical mixture still in the system. Once you

are sure that all the Chemical has been burned off. Turn the Close Valve and press the STOP button located on top of

the fuel tank to stop the machine. Important: Never switch off the machine without closing the chemical valves in

the order shown below. Failure to do this could cause the system to back-fire.

MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the Chemical Tank and Pipes

Fill the chemical tank with 25% of clean water and turn on the unit. Then open the chemical supply and close valves

to flush it through. 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 3.5 mm between the electrode and the

earth.

Fuel injector Maintenance

Unscrew the fuel injector situated on the side of the carburettor. Clean the injector with compressed air to remove

any blockages. Important: Never use a metallic punch to clean the injector. The injecting hole is calibrated for

optimum performance

STANDARD SYSTEM

SF MODEL

Maintaining the valve petal

Unscrew the fuel filter and regulator (if applicable) before unscrewing the top of the carburettor. Check the 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.

COMMON TROUBLESHOOTING

If there is no ignition:

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 and air in the carburettor). To fix this, press the STOP button (air release) so pressure can be re-

established. Then press and hold the “Start”button again for 10 seconds until it starts. If it fails to start, repeat the

procedure.

HOLD

10 MIN

STOP

Check there is a spark coming from the spark plug:

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

Check that there is a distance of 3.5 mm between the electrode and earth.

Check that the battery is fully charged.

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

Clean the contacts and wires inside the battery case

Once these checks have been carried out, try starting the machine again. If the machine doesn’t start, replace plug.

• Check the fuel injector is not blocked.

Examine the fuel hose located on the side of the fuel tank to make sure it’s not blocked. Make sure the fuel tank is

full before starting the machine. Make sure the seal in the petrol cap is not damaged. Make sure the cap is firmly

closed to prevent leakage. Unscrew the fuel injector and examine that the injector hole is not blocked. If blocked,

clean with compressed air.

• 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 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 supply valve is opened. This is done by turning it anticlockwise. Make sure that the close

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.
