Hydroponics Fogger
Using an Ultrasonic Fogger to Enhance Hydroponics Growth
By using a ultrasonic fogger you can speed up the rates that your plants grow at used in conjunction with hydroponics. Works especially well with small hydroponics systems.
Ultrasonic fogger setup instructions
For best operation the fogger must be run at a depth of 22 to 36 mm. Do not run the fogger unless it is submerged in water. If the fogger is run for prolonged amounts of time outside of water, this will cause damage to your fogger device. The fogger will generate some heat and cause your water temperature to rise. For best performance run your fogger on a 15 minutes on 15 minute off time cycle. You can purchase a 15 minute incremental timer inexpensively at Wal-Mart, Home Depot, or any electronics store. Please note that this timer is optional equipment, and not included with your purchase. Any common incremental wall timer will work. Please note that your fogger will not operate unless the submerged water switch is covered. The fogger must be sitting in several inches of water to operate
It is advisable to periodically clean the ceramic disc using water, and the Q-tip. Do not touch or scratch the ceramic disc or water level sensor switch. Do not use washing powder or detergent to clean your fogger. Do not run in unfiltered water; this will decrease the life of your fogger. After about 3000 hours of run time, a new ceramic disc may be necessarfor best performance. A ceramic disc and tool replacement kit can be purchased for this device inexpensively through homegrown hydroponics. Contact us for more information on replacement parts
1. Remove the fogger from the box, and plug into the AC power adapter. Place the fogger in the middle bottom of your hydroponic tub. It should be submerged 22 to 36 mm.
2. Run the power cord up through the hole in your hydroponic lid and plug into the power strip on the back of your grow box.
3. The fogger can be run 24 hours a day. However for best results we recommend hooking the fogger up to an incremental timer, and running the fogger on for 15 minutes offer 15 minutes 24 hours a day.
4. Fill up your hydroponic system with water as instructed above. The Ultrasonic fogger is meant to be submerged underwater. Make sure the submerged water indicator switch is fully covered with water.
5. You may need to prop the fogger off the bottom of the hydroponics system a few inches to get the maximum amount of fog. Experiment with the exact position for optimal fogging in your particular hydroponic system
