EXL Fogger Series 500
DIG’s EXL Series 500 foggers produce very fine micro-sized droplets and are used to reduce temperature, increase humidity and maintain conditions conducive to propagation, seeding, and cooling in greenhouse, hothouse and shade house applications. Design flexibility is achieved with interchangeable nozzles to maximize a micro climate effect for cooling and humidifying.
Fogger Features
- Supports optimal cooling or humidifying conditions in greenhouse applications by reducing temperature and increasing humidity
- Operates in a normal pressure range of 35 to 80 PSI with high uniformity
- Produces a droplet size of 50 to 100 microns (100 m at 50 PSI)
- Incorporates a vortex mechanism, reducing incoming water into micro-sized droplets
- Used for overhead cooling and humidifying in a closed structure
- Available in four color-coded Interchangeable nozzles
- Available with a dependable high-pressure, anti-leak device with one or four foggers assemblies
- Anti-leak device prevents damage to sensitive plants caused by dripping at the beginning and end of each irrigation cycle
- Due to lower operating pressure, the foggers experience less wear, resulting in less maintenance with overall lower operating costs
- Manufactured from superior durable plastics with UV protection for extended life operation
- Simple to install and available on 1?2″, 3?8″or 10-32 threaded base, or with 24″ (60 cm), 36″ (90 cm), 48″ (122 cm), or 60″ (152 cm) of 160″ ID x .270″ OD (4/7) micro tubing, a weight and anti-leak device
