Experts in Fogging Technology™ 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.
SPECIFICATIONS Model H500/H500SF Type Vehicle Mounted Engine Pulse Jet Tank material & shape Stainless Steel / Rectangular Tank Capacity 150 Litres Droplet Size 10-30 Microns Flow Rate 80 Litres Per Hour Fuel Petrol Fuel Consumption 4.5 Litres Per Hour Resonator Angle (SF Model Only) 0-45°...
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.

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. Fuel Intake (right resonator) Fuel Intake (left resonator) Fill the chemical tank and connect to the thermal fogger...
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).

Fuel injector Maintenance Unscrew the fuel Injector situated on the back of the machine (FIG 2.4). Clean the injector with compressed air. FUEL REGULATOR INJECTOR NJECTOR 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.
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”...

• 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.

• 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.
