Four-way fogger
This four-way fogger utilizes the mechanism of evaporative cooling which is an effective way to reduce heat stress and ensure a drop in temperature.
- By cooling the environment, these foggers help provide a convenient living environment within the poultry houses, improving the livability of the birds.
- It is important to use these foggers with a high-pressure pump (1/2 to 3/4 horsepower pump), pipeline, fogger nozzles, and timer unit.
Four-way fogger: Product features
- Reduces temperature by 9° to 10° Fahrenheit
- High-pressure plastic material
- Discharge 5 litres per hour/nozzle
- Unique vortex flow
- Fine droplets
- It has mist size: 10-15u | Working pressure: 500-600 psi/40-50 bar
- Anti-leak mini-valve to prevent drainage when not in operation
Mechanism of action
- Water is sprayed in the form of very fine mist, some of which evaporates by the time it reaches the pen floor, thus absorbing the heat in the atmosphere with a resultant cooling effect on birds.
- This also results in temperature balance in poultry houses.
- The foggers are provided with filters and inbuilt shut-off valves to stop the dripping of water in between spraying intervals.
- The foggers can be opened, the filtering systems and other components can be cleaned before re-assembling/recoupling
Installation

- Broiler Open Sheds (Fig I): For a typical 30 feet width house, two fogger lines should be provided (40ft width houses 3 lines). Foggers can be fitted at 8 to 10 feet interval. Position foggers in a downward position.
- Layer Sheds (Fig II: Cages): Foggers can be installed on cages at every 8 to 10 feet pointing in an upward direction. Foggers should be used with an extension pipe of one foot. The female adaptor should be provided with an inside taper so that the ‘O’ ring fits inside properly and no leakages occur.
- Install the fogger line above on the cages (3 lines for three rows). If the wind velocity is more than it should be reduced by putting gunny bags curtain at the edge of the shed.
- All the pipeline inside the shed should be 20 mm PVC 2.5 mm thick.
- Joints should be fixed with the help of PVC solvent cement very carefully.
- Pipes from the pump to each shed should be 1” (32mm).
Precautions
- If the orifice still remains clogged, clean it with a fine bristle brush.
- Do not use metal pins for cleaning clogged holes of fogger tip, instead wash the tips thoroughly with water or cleaning solution.
