deSCription
Aquafog mobile units are intended to condition large
volumes of air using water or other non-hazardous
liquids at air temperatures between 31ºF and 145ºF.
Any other use of these units will void the warranty
and the manufacturer will not be responsible for
problems or damages resulting from misuse.

General Safety
Since the mobile HRSM-EXP uses high-speed
components to atomize liquids, the following safety
precautions must be observed at all times:
1. Read all manuals included
with this product. Be familiar
with the product and controls.
2. The HRSM-EXP is intended to
be used on level ground. Test for stability
before operation.
3. Follow United States Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) guidelines and regulations when
fogging pesticide or chemical solutions.
4. Follow all local electrical and safety codes
as well as the United States National
Electrical Codes (NEC) and Occupational Safety
and Health Act (OSHA).
5. Only persons well acquainted with these rules
of safe operation should be allowed to use the
atomizer.
6. Keep visitors away and NEVER allow children in
the work area.
7. Use of an extension cord for the HRSM-
EXP is not recommended. If necessary,
refer to the A.W.G chart in the following section
or consult a certied electrician.
8. Before each use, inspect blade assembly
and electrical components for signs of damage,
deterioration, weakness or leakage. Repair or
replace defective items before using.
9. Check all fasteners at frequent intervals for
proper tightness.
MOTORS, ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT, AND
CONTROLS CAN CAUSE ELECTRICAL
ARCS THAT WILL IGNITE FLAMMABLE
LIQUID OR GAS. NEVER OPERATE
OR REPAIR IN OR NEAR FLAMMABLE LIQUID OR GAS.
NEVER STORE FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS OR GASES IN THE
VICINITY OF THE ATOMIZER.

11. When this unit is automated
by controls, warning signs
should be posted near the high-
speed equipment.
12. Disconnect and lock-out power
source to inspect or service the unit.
Baldor®Explosion-Proof motors are UL and
CSA approved for the following hazardous
locations:
CLASS 1, Group D locations
containing volatile gases
such as Gasoline, Hexane,
Naphtha, Benzine,
Propane, Alcohol etc.
CLASS 2, Group F & G
locations containing dust
such as (F) Carbon Black, Coal or Coke Dust
or (G) Flour, Starch, or Grain Dusts.
DO NOT ATOMIZE
FLAMMABLE MATERIALS.
13. Humidity and cold air are
two common asthma triggers.
Asthmatic people working
with this equipment need to
be made aware of the risk.
14. When atomizing toxic chemicals, follow the
instructions provided by the chemical
manufacturer.
HIGH-SPEED ROTATION. A
MOTIONLESS ATOMIZER MAY
APPEAR SAFE, BUT ITS BLADE COULD SUDDENLY BEGIN
HIGH-SPEED ROTATION WITHOUT WARNING AS A RESULT
OF CONTROL PROGRAMMING.

WARNING
Locate a level, stable
area to place the
HRSM-EXP. If there's a
slight grade, blocking
the wheels may be
necessary to keep unit
secure.
Visually check to
make sure the fan
blades can rotate

Adjustment Pin
Fig. 1
The HRSM-EXP is equipped with a four position
pivoting fogging head with 15º intervals up to 45º
(see Fig. 1)
Propelling the fog upward allows more time for the
particles to evaporate, keeping oor areas drier.
When making an adjustment, support the weight of
the fogging head off of the pin for easy removal.

Power Supply ►
The volume of fog can be regulated by adjusting
the Flow Control Valve. (See Fig. 2)
Particle size is smaller/drier at lower outputs,
so it is wise to operate the unit at a lower output
for longer periods of time rather than high
outputs for short periods of time.
At the base of the plumbing is an in-line strainer
with a removable cap. Occasionally, check inside
and ush any sediment from the screen.
The Hose Connection is used to supply fresh
water to the unit and is controlled by an internal
oat valve assembly. There is also a secondary
back up oat valve assembly to ensure tank's
water level.
