General Description Fogmaker® is a fire suppression device used to suppress fires generated by petrol, diesel, oil and other similar substances in engine bays or other closed spaces in trucks, front end loaders, forestry and contracting machines, buses or other heavier vehicles, engine and engine bays in racing and rally cars, engine and fuel tank bays in pleasure boats, other smaller boats and other Vehicles. When activated the suppressant released by Fogmaker creates a cold water fog that cools down the temperature very rapid and effectively and also forces the air out of the compartment where the device is located so that the oxygen content is reduced. The effectiveness of the suppressant increases when the fluid is vaporized upon meeting the hot surfaces of objects on fire. Fogmaker operates and releases the suppressing fluid completely regardless of the installation position of the piston accumulator or angle when released. This is based on a patented solution that makes the function more secure than the traditional fire suppression canister / cylinder type where a rising pipe is used which reduces or completely eliminates the function when suppressing if the piston accumulator is hung or is held nearly horizontally or upside down. The suppressing fluid is based on water and has frost-protection additives and a film-forming chemical that impedes re-ignition in leaking fuel. It is recommended that protective goggles are worn during installation or repair of the Fogmaker system.

WARNING It is absolutely forbidden for non-authorized personnel to tamper with the valve or the top of the container when the container is pressurized. The pressure in the container could then be released with great power and could injure a person seriously. Do not loosen or remove the safety screw before the installation is complete. Never pick-up the Piston Accumulator by the Gauge.

Installation of FM-US-200002 Electric Activation Switch.

Electric Activation As an alternative or complement to the manual activation with wires, the valve can be actuated electrically. Fogmaker® has several different central units that can activate the electrical release. The release can be push button, semi-automatic or fully automatic. The release is triggered by applying an electric voltage between 5-24 v DC to the actuator. At the moment of activation the current is 3A (15W) during 1 millisecond. For a hydro pneumatic system there is also an electrically or manually activated “punch” that cuts the tube. Contact Fogmaker® or your retailer for further information. Optional Manual Electrical actuation Switch part number FM-US-200002:

Push button Switch kit

Switch to be mounted with the safety clip ring up. The safety clip should have the lanyard & tamper proof tie attached. To test the switch:

NOTE: Do not check the switch function with the wire harness attached to the actuator. It will cause the actuator to function.

1. Disconnect the switch at the plug from the harness 2. Remove the safety clip. 3. Check continunity accross the pins in the plug. It should be open. Press the switch in, the continunity

will be closed. 4. Reasseble the switch putting the safety clip back in & secure with tamper proof tie. Be sure there is no

contintuity across the pins in the plug. 5. Attach the wire back to the harness at the plug.

5. Functional Check After Installation 1. The Fogmaker Piston Accumulator is tested for leakage prior to delivery so that testing by customer is not necessary. 2. The hydro pneumatic detection system should be checked after the ball valve on the detector container has been opened and then all the joints and connections are tested for leakage with soap water spray. Any possible leaks should be rectified. The gauge on the hydro pneumatic system should thereafter be observed for at least a week. The pressure should be between 20-24 bar (290-348 PSI). 3. For electrical systems, check that all cables are correct and that there are no faulty connections. Check the alarm panel function per the appropriate Alarm Panel Manual.

6. Action In Case of Fire The following must occur in the event of fire in the protected area: 1. Stop engines, cooling and HVAC System. 2. Turn off the main power switch. 3. If possible, close doors/lids to the protected area. 4. Activate Fogmaker. If the system is not fully automatic or is in the manual position, pull the

wire handle or press the release button. 5. Close the fuel supply to the engine. 6. If possible, keep doors/lids to the protected area closed for five minutes after suppressing.

Have a hand fire extinguisher on standby if the fire should flame up again. 7. When the piston accumulator and the detector container have been refilled, they should be

reinstalled in the same was as for new installation. 8. Activate the system in accordance with the Arm-Disarm Instructions.

7. Actions After Suppressing The suppression fluid contains frost protection, rust inhibitor, and film-forming liquid that are broken down by natural organisms. When the fluid dries the corrosion protection loses its effect. In order to avoid corrosion on metal parts, cleaning must be carried out as soon as possible. This is done by flushing with fresh water, preferably under high pressure. It is recommended to also use some form of alkaline washing detergent that facilitates the removal of film formation. Otherwise a coating can remain which may collect impurities. The nozzles must be removed and the tube set flushed with fresh water. After flushing with fresh water, the tube set should be blown dry with compressed air. Refer to system reset instructions in Section 14.

7.1 Function Reset after a Fire or False Activation When Fogmaker has been released the piston accumulator must be refilled. For a hydro pneumatic system the detector container must be replaced. This must be carried out by authorized personnel. Take the following action if the piston accumulator must be removed: 1. Install the safety screw if possible – (See Section 1.1) 2. Remove the hydraulic hose from the release valve on the piston accumulator and inspect and replace when necessary. 3. Loosen the wire from the release valve on the piston accumulator for a mechanical system or

the electric cable on an electric system, remove the detector tube on a hydro pneumatic system and change it.

4. Remove the piston accumulator and the detector container and provide them to an authorized

service workshop for inspection and refilling. 5. Remove the nozzles and flush the pipe system with a mixture of water. (Rinsing tools can be

ordered from Fogmaker). Then blow out the pipe lines with compressed air. 6. Install new nozzles and nozzle caps.

IMPORTANT In order to protect engines, electrical installations and other metal parts against corrosion – flush the remains of dried or moist suppression fluid as soon as possible after the release of the piston accumulator (use if possible a high pressure washer) irrespective of whether the piston accumulator has been released in connection with a fire or for other reasons.

7.2 Effect of suppressing Fogmaker does not normally harm the function of an engine. If the suppression fluid is sucked into the air intake on the engine, it will not significantly change the function of the engine. However starting difficulties can occur with diesel engines since the incoming suppression fluid contains water. Note that the suppression fluid can cause corrosion damage if the engine is not cleaned within a short time after the fire. To ensure engine’s function, engine should be protected by filling with a little oil and turning over the start motor a few revolutions. The function of the electrical system can be affected by the suppression fluid and give undesirable short-circuits if the cleaning is not done quickly, as recommended When the cause of the fire has been eliminated and the protected equipment has been cleaned, the Fogmaker can be used again, assuming that the fire itself has not caused damage that must be repaired.

8. Control plan for the suppression system

The suppression system shall be serviced once a year by authorized personnel according to the control plan below. Every sixth year the piston accumulator (PA) shall be serviced and the suppression fluid shall be changed. The service may only be carried out by authorized personnel.

Control plan for weekly inspection A visual inspection of the system components should be carried out every week to ensure that the system has not received any damage. Repairs should be completed by authorized personnel.

Control plan for daily inspection Check that the pressure in the piston accumulator is correct by the gauge being in the green swept area. The pressure in the detector fluid bottle shall be in the green swept area. The pressures do not need to be checked if PA & Detector has electronic monitoring with pressure switches.
