Overview

The 3-Zone PLC Vision Pump Fed Fogger Controller is designed to allow independent control of fogging in multiple rooms and/or different areas of a large room. Any combination of 8-Way, 4-Way or 2-Way Pump Fed foggers can be operated within a zone. The number of foggers that can be supported in each zone will depend on the capacity of the air compressor. The Vision Controller provides highly flexible programmable settings with multiple options for controlling each zone. Settings include those for fogging start time, length of application, time delay between applications, days of the week and days of the month.

Safety & Operational Precautions

  • This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
  • If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
  • Always consider electrical shock hazard when working with and handling electrical equipment. If uncertain, consult an Electrician. Electrical wiring should only be done by a qualified Electrician, per Local and State Electrical Codes.
  • Manufacturer assumes no liability for the use or misuse of this unit.
  • Wear proper respiratory protection, protective clothing, gloves and eye-wear when working with chemicals.
  • Always direct the discharge away from electrical devices.
  • Carefully follow chemical manufacturer's safe handling instructions and recommended precautions/practices especially when using flammable chemicals.
  • For proper performance do NOT modify electrical control box.
  • Disconnect electrical power to the control box prior to opening it.
  • Remove any packing material from inside the control box before operating.
  • SPECIAL CAUTION: This fogger atomizes chemical into the air.  Ensure that the chemical is safe to be around or the area to be fogged has been evacuated of all people and/or animals before starting fogging. Upon completion of fogging, ensure that sufficient time has elapsed for all the fog to have dissipated before returning to the area without proper respiratory protection.

To Install (refer to diagram on next page)

  1. Mount the control box to a secure surface. It may be mounted vertically, on a wall, post or other vertical surface, or horizontally on a flat surface. Commercially available mounting hardware (not provided), appropriate to the surface material of construction, should be used to secure the control box to the surface. Mounting holes are located at the four corners of the base of the control box.
  2. Do NOT connect to electricity yet.
  3. Connect your compressed air to the Control Box inlet and connect the discharges to piping leading to the fogger zone control kits installed in each zone.
