User Manual for FOAMit FOG-IT-DS Electric Fog Unit

Quick Guide

The FOAMit FOG-IT-DS is an electric fog unit designed for industrial cleaning applications. This manual provides essential instructions for installation, timer configuration, and safe operation. Always ensure the unit is connected to a GFCI-protected 120VAC outlet and that all chemicals used are compatible with the unit's seals.

Safety Instructions

• Personal Protective Equipment: Always confirm PPE requirements with the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) of the chemical being used.
• Chemical Compatibility: Use only chemicals formulated for this application and compatible with unit materials and pump seals.
• Maintenance: Always depressurize the unit and disconnect from the power source before performing any maintenance.
• Grounding: Pump, valves, and containers must be properly grounded when handling flammable fluids.
• Flushing: Flush the unit with fresh water when switching between acidic and alkaline chemicals.

Timer Adjustment

The TR120DS-A is a repeat cycle timer. ON and OFF times can range from 1 second to 511 minutes.

1. Select Interval: Move the top dip switch to the left for MIN (minutes) or to the right for SEC (seconds).
2. Set Time: Use the next 9 dip switches to control the total active time. The switches represent increments of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, and 256. Combine the numbers of active switches (left position) to achieve the desired time.
3. Indicator: The timer light is red when the output is off and green when the output is on.

Installation

1. Mount the control box to a vertical wall at a height of 6 feet or less.
2. Ensure the chemical suction line reaches the bottom of the chemical container.
3. Install quick connect elbows to the outlet fittings on the bottom of the control box.
4. Run 1/4 inch tubing from the control box outlet to the fog nozzles.
5. Install pressure relief tubing and ensure it dispenses back into the chemical container.
6. Plug the unit into a GFCI-protected 120VAC power outlet.

Operation

1. Prepare the area to be fogged.
2. Verify timer settings.
3. Turn the power switch to the ON position.
4. Open the priming valve until solution flows through the line, then close it.
5. Adjust the pressure relief valve until the liquid gauge reads below 150 psi. If the pump makes a hammering sound, open the pressure relief valve further.

Troubleshooting

• Pump not drawing chemical: Check suction line and strainer for debris. Repeat priming steps.
• Pump hammering: Adjust pressure relief valve until the pump equalizes (around 75 to 100 PSI).
• No product dispensed: Disassemble the nozzle and inspect for debris or build-up.
• Unit not turning on: Confirm power supply and verify timer settings.
