In winter, the fog cannon use of attention

2023-02-07


Many people should have seen fog cannons by now, especially fog cannon trucks are very common in cities. The fog cannon is an important equipment to deal with urban environmental problems nowadays. The rear part of the dust suppression vehicle that removes haze and reduces dust from city streets is the main body of the fog cannon. The fog cannon is atomized by high-pressure water into water droplets comparable to the size of dust. Since the water droplet particles are similar or identical to the dust particles, the dust particles become wet by contact with the water droplet particles during operation with the airflow. The wet dust particles continue to adsorb other dust particles and gradually form particle clusters  which sink due to their own weight increase.



The fog cannon machine can effectively control the construction site dust, atomized water to absorb the dust in the air, effectively protect the environment and construction personnel. Fog cannon belongs to mechanical equipment, in addition to the routine use of routine maintenance, its water system in the winter prone to icing more special attention to freezing and warmth, the correct care and maintenance, not only to allow our fog cannon to play its maximum role, but also to extend the service life of the fog cannon. 

In winter, how to ensure effective operation in the cold weather? There are several aspects that need attention.


1.when the equipment is not in use (especially at night). The water stored in the pump needs to be rained in time to avoid freezing and cracking the pump body or pipes. If it is already frozen, do not use it forcibly, so as not to damage the pump and motor. If you need to use it after freezing, you can use warm water to thaw or move the fog cannon to a high temperature (with heating) indoor natural thaw before starting to use.

2.If the fog cannon is equipped with a piston pump, please check whether the pump tank/water tank is frozen before you start the machine. If it is frozen, please use warm water to thaw or move the fog cannon to a high temperature (heated) indoor natural thaw before starting to use.

3.If the fog cannon is equipped with a hydraulic pump, please check whether the hydraulic pump tank is frozen before you start the machine. If it is frozen, please use warm water to thaw it or transfer the fog cannon to a high temperature (heated) room to thaw it naturally before starting to use it.

4.If the fog cannon is equipped with a turbo worm reducer, please check whether the turbo worm oil tank is frozen before you start the machine. If it is frozen, please thaw it with warm water or transfer the fog cannon to a high temperature (with heating) indoor natural thaw before starting to use.

5.The fog cannon is equipped with electric heating function. Please check whether the appearance of electric heating tape is intact before use. If you find a breakage and other abnormalities, please replace it in time.

6.according to the actual use of the environment, please customers to buy the right grade and regular manufacturers of oil. If the oil is found to be dirty, emulsified and deteriorated, please replace it in time.

7.In cold areas, you can wrap the pump body with insulation cotton, loosen the pressure gauge adjustment valve, inlet and outlet water and water pipe connections on the pump head, and empty the water in the pipe. The next year before use again will be all connected fittings tightened recovery before the equipment can be activated.
