CFG 291 Fog Generator

Condensation Fog Generator CFG 291 for fog generation to visualise air flows according to ISO 14644-3

The mobile fog generator CFG 291 is used to generate a highly visible, stationary fog for visualising air flows. It combines the handy design of the previous model CFG 290 with optimised fluid guidance and a specially developed evaporator.

The fog generator is primarily used for the initial acceptance and routine inspections of cleanroom systems in accordance with the standard series ISO 14644 or guideline VDI 2083-3 in order to detect leaks in the transition areas of cleanroom elements, to prove the presence of laminar displacement flow or to visualise the overpressure level of cleanrooms.

Benefits

  • operation in different orientations possible (hermetically sealed fluid tank)
  • nearly continuous operation (use of replaceable batteries)
  • easy on-site replacement of the evaporator cartridge by the customer
  • low-impulse fog input into ambient air stream (special discharge probe)

Applications

  • visualisation of air flows in rooms
  • standard-compliant acceptance and routine testing of cleanroom systems
  • visual leak testing of rooms or enclosed areas
  • function testing of various sensors (smoke detectors, PM sensors)

The TopFog fog fluid (aqueous mixture of polyhydric alcohols) is transported from the fluid tank into an evaporator cartridge, where it vaporises at a temperature of about 300 °C and expands into the cooler one spot probe. The fog is formed there by homogeneous condensation and agglomeration.
