Operational requirements and Notes
The Fogjet Trolley requires a clean compressed air supply delivering 250-300 litres/
minute of air at a pressure of 4 Bar for optimum results.
It is recommended that a compressed air pressure regulator is included in the supply line
to control the performance to a desired result.
It is also good practice to include a robust air filter to prevent any pipeline debris from
blocking the nozzle air ways.
Health and Safety Caution
The Fogjet Nozzles produce micronised particles of moisture that are absorbed by the
ambient air. The particles may be of a chemical nature which, if inhaled, may cause
irritation or serious damage to the respiratory tract, Throat, Nose and Lungs. Irritation
or damage to eyes may also occur.
Personel should be strictly excluded from the area during the fogging
process.

The Intended Purpose of the Chess Fogjet Trolley is to discharge the fluid in the
vessel as micronised particles that can be easily absorbed by the immediate
atmosphere, thereby raising the humidity of the airspace in a closed work area, to a
supersaturated condition known as fog.
The resulting condition is known to effectively control airborne bacteria, micro flora
and wild yeast, especially when a dew containing the disinfectant is allowed to form
on working surfaces.
The fluid is drawn by venturi action from the vessel into the fogjet nozzles when
actuated by compressed air. There are no moving parts in the nozzles.
The compressed air is conveyed in a closed system of pipework within the vessel.
The vessel itself is not pressurised. The purpose of the vent hole in the cap of the
vessel is to ensure any leakage from the internal pipework will not result in the
vessel being inadvertently stressed.
The vent in the cap should not be covered under any circumstances.
The materials of construction are corrosion resistant to a wide range of diluted
chemicals typically used as disinfectants / sanitisers. However regular exposure to
solutions with a pH of <4 or chlorinated solutions may increase the incidence of
maintenance or reduce the useful life of the equipment
