Fog Cannon Dust Suppression System

When vast open spaces require dust suppression and a semi permanent system is not a practical option, the solution may lie with the introduction of a fog cannon to the site. These huge mobile and expensive units can utilise up to 60 hydraulic spray nozzles mounted circumferentially around the outlet head of a large fan assisted barrel. The concentration of nozzle spray together with the high flow of air from the fan, throws the droplets many metres towards the source of the dust activity. The droplets scatter in a plume of relatively soft spray and can capture fugitive dust before it becomes airborne and a major problem.
