With an output that puts pyrotechnic smoke bombs
to shame, complete controllability and low running costs,
this gas powered
smoke
gun is the ideal solution for external
smoke
.
Designed
for:
film
makers
photographers
outdoor
training
Established
for over ten years, this
smoke
gun has become the industry standard exterior gas powered
smoke
gun. Small, lightweight and easy to operate, using disposable
aerosols of gas and
smoke
fluid and incorporating a piezo electric ignition. Its variable
output can be regulated from a trickle of light mist to a
dense fog. Supplied in a metal carrying case.
This smoke gun is a unique, off power
smoke
generator ideal for creating large volumes of
smoke
for applications such as fire training, public order training,
photography and film making - indeed any application where
complete portability is a requirement.
Using conventional Taymar type gas cartridges
as the heating source (available worldwide) and one of our
special smoke fluid canisters, the smoke gun is incredibly
straight forward to use. Simply screw in the canisters, pre-heat
the stainless steel coil for a few seconds, and turn on the
smoke
. It's that easy!
Principle of Operation
Smoke
oil stored in disposable, ozone friendly
smoke
canisters, is forced under pressure from an inert propellant
into a heat exchanger, where it is vaporised using heat applied
by a high efficiency burner. The burner draws gas from standard
propane/butane cartridges such as the Taymar 3500. The vapour
produced condenses on reaching normal atmosphere and a dense,
non toxic white
smoke
is produced.

Smoke Oil Aerosols
Smoke Fluid & Accessories
Box of
10 x 400ml Smoke Fluid Aerosols for exterior smoke
gun above.
Our smoke fluid aerosols are made from one-piece aluminium so
they will not rust or leak.

We
cannot send the propane gas aerosols (above) anywhere outside
mainland UK - you must source them in your own
country if you are outside the UK. The thread type of these
propane cylinders is the same around the world, EXCEPT in America/Canada
where the thread is different. They are readily available from
hardware stores and camping supply shops.
Overseas
ordering of pressurised smoke fluid aerosols
The box of 10 smoke fluid aerosols above are pre-pressurised,
which means they cost more to ship overseas than a normal container
of fluid as they are classed as 'hazardous'. To lower the cost
of shipping and further reduce running costs of your smoke machine,
we can supply a refillable canister option. Instead of using
the pre-pressurised aerosols, re-fillable aerosol cans can simply
be pressurised by a hand pump, airline (e.g. in a garage forecourt)
or inert gas supply. You simply buy our refillable can and a
5 litre container of our smoke fluid which will fill the can
around 14 times. It is possible to re-fill the same can up to
100 times. You can, of course, purchase any number of 5 litre
containers at the time of your order.
Refillable
aerosol (supplied singly) Fill
with fluid (below) and pressurise with a hand pump, airline
(e.g. in a garage forecourt) or inert gas supply. Can be refilled
50 - 100 times. Overseas shipping costs
are greatly reduced by ordering refillable aerosol(s) and containers
of smoke fluid instead of pre-pressurised aerosols.
