1 MEET THE MAGICFX®PSYCO2JET!
The MAGICFX® PSYCO2JET is a special eects machine that blasts CO2into the air.
The MAGICFX®PSYCO2JET is equipped with a CO2powered rotating nozzle. A solenoid
valve controls the supply of liquid CO2to the nozzle. From the nozzle, the CO2escapes
through the output pipe. A blast of escaping CO2is accompanied by a strong hissing
sound and a white plume of smoke will be visible from the output pipe. The nozzle
with output pipe is mounted on a180° rotatable pipe, driven by an electric motor. By
blasting and varying the output direction the MAGICFX®PSYCO2JET delivers
spectacular eects.
The MAGICFX® PSYCO2JET is outtted for operation:
• with DMX and optionally RDM;
• in RAW mode or in PRESET mode;
• in sequence with multiple machines.
The MAGICFX®PSYCO2JET is mounted on a truss or on stage.
