PS60 Smoke System

 |
The PS60 is the highest output
industrial model in the range, producing approximately 60% more smoke than even the PS33T unit at continuous, un-ramped, full output, but an incredible 138% more smoke at "Super Turbo" level which can be sustained for 2 minutes before a brief re-heat period of around 15 seconds.
This twin output version comes fitted with a timer controller
facility and a horizontal high capacity 5 litre fluid reservoir
with an easy fill, wide spout inlet and integrated sight-glass,
eliminating the possibility of ever overfilling the tank.
The smoke from the PS60 is extremely
persistent, remaining highly visible to 200°C (compared
to typical water based smoke systems which evaporate at 40-50°C)
before evaporation commences, making the unit ideally suited
to hot fire training applications. It is also used during
carbonaceous burns to top up smoke levels in different compartments
in the training facility. The smoke is also unaffected in
fast moving air streams / turbulent conditions making it the
perfect tool for PPV / impulse ventilation training. Custom
weatherproof cover and wheeled flightcase to hold the entire system are also available.

Oil-based and water-based fog - what's the
difference?
Oil-based fog is much denser and hangs
in the air many, many times longer than water based fog, as
the fog particles don't evaporate as quickly. It is perfectly
safe, non-toxic, intrinsically biodegradable and leaves no discernible residue. The oil based fog has
a temperature resistance of up to 200° Celcius. The
smoke is the safest in its class, outperforming
water based systems substantially. The smoke has a 'bland'
smell which the majority of users find is far less noticeable
than water based smokes. Please note that these units
can be re-programmed to accept water based smoke fluid as
well, if required.
Safe
smoke
Our oil based machines have been used in
hundreds of critical applications including aircraft simulators
for the world's biggest aircraft manufacturers and pharmaceutical
clean rooms for over 35 years without any problems arising
from deposition or residue.
Extremely efficient
fluid consumption
You will likely notice a reduction in smoke fluid consumption
of 80 - 90% with these systems compared to water-based smoke
machines for similar if not better
smoke
densities.
Zero
maintenance
No routine maintenance is required as the unit automatically
purges its heater block after every smoke issue. Four models
are available for different needs. Users from fire training
centres to theme parks throughout the world have selected
these machines as their primary
smoke
system. Each unit comes with a 10
year warranty as standard, and a lifetime
guarantee on the heater block.
Leak Tests / Air Flow Visualisation
Ideally suited to large building envelope tests - the smoke
hangs for around 4 hours without evaporating or layering (unlike
water based smoke) which enables you to fill huge areas effectively
and efficiently for air tightness testing work.
Ventilation / Air Handling
System Tests
For impulse / PPV (positive pressure ventilation) / road tunnel
/ car park ventilation tests for ventilation systems, the
only smoke that gives you the most superior results is from
the Phantom. It remains dense and highly visible over long
distances and test durations and does not evaporate due to
high speed air movement. Smoke from the units can also be
given thermal buoyancy - the only machine
capable of this. The smoke is heated and rises, staying visible
where water based smokes simply evaporate.
Smoke Detector Tests
Unlike water-based smoke, oil-based smoke can be given thermal
buoyancy to closely replicate hot rising smoke from a real
fire. Ideal if your smoke detectors are very high up in the
ceiling. The smoke from the Thermo-Resist models is
persistent to 200C.
Theme
Parks / Installations
Reliability and running costs are the main factors for fixed
installations. These machines excel in both. They can also
be programmed to use oil or water based fluid for effects
with long or very short hang times.
Fire Training
Not only does the smoke from the Thermo-Resist versions
resist temperatures up to 200C (making them ideal for hot
fire training), but its fluid use is unparalelled by any other
machine producing such a thick, dense, persistent smoke. It
is also the safest smoke available due to the huge reduction
in smoke fluid chemical required to achieve complete white-out.
The smoke has a very dull smell and is much less irritating
compared to high concentrations of water based fog.

If requested, the unit can also be adjusted to use
our water-based fluids (both quick dispersing and persistent)
for further flexibility in special effects or wind tunnels
(dispersion rates 30 seconds to 1.5 hours). |

Thermo-Resist Versions
The Thermo-Resist models are specifically
designed to use the increased temperature resistant variant
of the fluid - Pea Soup Smoke Oil 180 - which is temperature
resistant up to 200°C. These units are therefore ideally suited
for hot fire training applications or for producing thermally
buoyant smoke using a large heat source (eg burn tray / space
heater).
For thermally buoyant smoke for smoke detector testing please
also see our RSG - Realistic Smoke
Generator which is a self-contained thermally buoyant
smoke producing system complete with its own heating chimney. |
Contact us to
order
Pea Soup industrial smoke systems are also available in
stainless steel metalwork shells to special order
at extra cost. This option is recommended for heavy duty / high usage applications such as fire
training, or where the equipment is likely to be used in areas of
high humidity.

DUCTING ADAPTORS
& HOSE
Ducting adaptors attach
to the front of the machine to allow secure connection
of ducting hose to allow smoke to be positioned precisely,
in hard to reach places or inside containers. All our ducting hoses are now internally lined to be
smooth thereby reducing frictional losses. When you
duct smoke, you are restricting the smoke particles
so deposition in the hose over time is inevitable. Using
this machine and this type of hose, deposition is minimised. |
