Description |
| PS23 |
ROCKET - 1.1kW persistent smoke machine |
| PS25 |
ROCKET TURBO - 2.2kW persistent smoke machine |
|
Operation:
- Basic version & remote version (both
on-board operation, off power, or remote)
- Particle size 0.2 - 0.3 micron, mass median
diameter - the smallest particle size of any smoke machine.
('Disco' systems' smoke particle size
can be anything up to 60 microns - a human hair is approx
100 microns). Fog produced by the heat exchanger
in the Rocket has been subject to particle size analysis
by the UK Atomic Energy Authority.
Available as 230v or 110v
(please specify when ordering)
Smoke Hang Time
(at 20C) |
1.5 hours + |
Two control options available:
Basic - no remote (button
on handle)
Remote - with button on handle AND
remote control on 5m cable

|
You
can produce lots of
smoke
'off power' allowing you to carry the generator around, making
smoke
as required, without a trailing electrical lead. After being
on mains for at least 15 minutes, the smoke machine can generate
large amounts of
smoke
for up to 2 minutes within a 20 minute window after being
unplugged.
The remote control version can be used with
the handle-mounted button when off-power, but not with the
remote control (which needs power).
When connected to mains power,
the Rocket can operate continuously at full output
using the push button on the handle.
In service with numerous fire authorities world-wide,
many military forces (including the USN for shipboard training),
as well as analytical laboratories, clean rooms, spray booths,
and HVAC contractors, the Rocket smoke machines have a reputation
for simplicity of operation and reliability.
These units are ideal for when you require extremely
dense concentrations of smoke, or extremely large volumes
need to be filled with smoke. This is because smoke produced
is very persistent. The ROCKET TURBO is
a high power version and generates almost
twice as much smoke as the standard model - it's one of the
most powerful hand held
smoke
generators available today. |

User comment: "This is a cool machine.
I used the machine in one of my outbuildings. Very impressive
indeed. The room is 20' x 10' x 8'. You couldn't see 3' after
a 30 second burst."

of ducting hose to allow smoke to be positioned precisely,
in hard to reach places or inside containers.
All our ducting hoses are now internally lined to be
smooth thereby reducing frictional losses. |

Overseas
ordering of pre-pressurised smoke fluid aerosols
The box of 10 smoke fluid aerosols 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.
The ROCKET QD - Quick Dispersing
Smoke Generator
|
Video of Rocket QD smoke machine in action,
with ducting and fan for steam line effects
|
|
The ROCKET QD which
looks and works in the same way as the ROCKET machines above,
produces an even thicker, whiter smoke but
which dissipates within a couple of minutes.
This machine is mainly used for special effects for smoke
that needs to disperse quickly and not smoke log a location
(e.g. theatre, steam FX, TV). It's also ideal for photo shoots.
By using it with a fan, a superb steam / CO2 blast
effect can be created (increasing air movement increases
rate of smoke dissipation). It is also used by some hospitals
for their fire safety evacuation training where they need
a thick smoke effect, but when the smoke must disperse
after the test without ventilation available.
Note: You cannot use persistent Rocket Fuel
aerosols (above) in a Rocket QD machine because the machines
operate at different temperatures.
