CoolNet Pro Fogging System<br />

Super-fine static mist especially designed for cooling and<br />

humidifying greenhouses and livestock, and for irrigating over<br />

propagation tables<br />

Fogger has four nozzles that each produce a nominal flow rate<br />

of 2 gph at 60 psi with an average particle size of 90 microns<br />

Designed to be used with the hanging assembly on the<br />

next page by a press-fit connection<br />

60 psi is required for optimal operation; higher pressures do<br />

not improve performance<br />

It is recommended to use a pressure regulator set at 65 psi in<br />

addition to a 140 mesh disc filter<br />

FIVE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR<br />

INSTALLING AN EFFECTIVE<br />

PROPAGATION SYSTEM<br />

1. When using the 4-way fogger nozzle, space<br />

them 3’-5’ apart along the supply line. The<br />

lower GPH foggers should be spaced more<br />

closely than the higher GPH foggers. If spaced<br />

on 3’ centers, they can be used to convert from<br />

fogging to watering.<br />

2. Fogger supply lines should be spaced 3’ apart.<br />

3. Place foggers a minimum of 18”- 30” above the<br />

plants.<br />

4. Set the fogger trajectories at 45º to one<br />

another to avoid pattern interference/overlap.<br />

5. Typical operation is for 10 seconds every 5 -10<br />

minutes depending on crop requirements.<br />

See page 298-310 for misting controllers.<br />

These are excellent for maintaining automatic<br />

control of the propagation area. See page 65 for<br />

Rhizopon rooting compounds to enhance root<br />

development.<br />

Bag of 25 19-76760 $ 6.69<br />

For wider benches up to 8’ use two<br />

lines of foggers equal distance from<br />

the center of the bench. For large<br />

areas, use 1 row of foggers for every<br />

4’ width of area to be fogged. Position<br />

with 45º offset as shown.<br />

Interval (sec)<br />

• In order to maximize the cooling effect, exhaust fans are recommended<br />

to exchange the air about 20 times per hour<br />

• These recommendations are general and should be applied in<br />

accordance with local condition and limitations<br />

• Duration of pulse and interval is to be fine-tuned according to local<br />

conditions; the timing provided is just a starting point<br />

• For crops that are not sensitive to wetting, the pulse can be prolonged,<br />

and/or the interval shortened<br />

• Other spacing can certainly be used with foggers; the spacings<br />

above give some reference points between spacing and<br />

operation intervals<br />

5’ to 15’ Apart<br />

3’ to 6’ Height<br />

(generally, higher is better)<br />

Cooling considerations include:<br />

• Place foggers as high as possible<br />

• Avoid spraying against the roof or structure<br />

• Prevent precipitation by adjusting the cycle time<br />
