Mist Blowers & Foggers

Guarany’s 4 litre capacity 220V electric disinfectant fogger sets the standards for fogging equipment. It is used across the world for disinfecting, deep cleaning and sanitising as well as for pest and disease control.

Its easy-to-use, portable design makes it essential equipment for the no-fuss disinfecting, deep cleaning and sanitising of a huge range of facilities such as offices, hospitals, schools, gyms and other public spaces. It is also used for vehicle disinfection.

The electric fogger produces a fine mist and is suitable for treating pathogens such as viruses in the air and on surfaces. It can apply two drop-let sizes: larger droplets when the on-off switch is in position"1", or smaller droplets in position "2".

The cold fill electric disinfectant fogger also has a wide range of other uses e.g. for spraying insecticides, anti-moulding products, deodorants, germicides and for cleaning kennels, farms, silos, poultry farms, aviaries and food production facilities. It has a one year warranty.

What is disinfectant fogging and how does disinfectant fogging work?

Disinfectant fogging machines create a super-fine mist or fog comprised of tiny droplets containing chemicals such as disinfecting products. The benefit of using a mist or fog to disinfect against viruses and bacteria is that it can attack them both in the air and on surfaces. Additionally, the fine droplets can reach hard-to-access objects and areas, thus providing a much fuller and more comprehensive coverage than manual or other cleaning methods alone.

There are a number of different types of disinfectant fogger: wet foggers, dry foggers and electrostatic foggers. You may also see the description ULV fogger, meaning ultra low volume fogger. These are cold foggers (which can be wet or dry) as opposed to thermal foggers. The Guarany electric disinfectant fogger is a ULV cold wet fogger.

What is the difference between wet and dry foggers?

Wet foggers and dry foggers do the same thing. The difference is in the fineness of the spray and therefore a) how long it hangs in the air and b) how it treats or wets surfaces. In terms of the practicalities of using wet or dry fogging, there are also implications for what level of personal protection equipment (PPE) would need to be worn and how soon after fogging it is safe to enter the room without PPE.

Wet foggers deliver a small enough droplet size which means the spray hangs long enough in the air to treat viruses and pathogens and to be blown around the room by air currents to give good coverage and reach inaccessible places but is heavy enough to treat viruses on surfaces too.

Dry foggers produce even finer droplets that are designed to hang in the air. As such, they do not have the secondary function of treating surfaces. While they may reach every nook and cranny, they require more stringent PPE and it will be longer before the area can be entered safely.

The use of electrostatic spraying for disinfection is an interesting concept. The theory is to charge the particles before they are ejected from the nozzle. This is done by using a strong positively charged spray. This electrically charged spray will then adhere better to any negatively or neutrally charged surface it comes into contact with. It provides a very good coating and coverage of disinfectant on surfaces but is, as yet, unproven to be any better than other types of fogging and is considerably more expensive.

With its powerful 66.5cc engine, the Solo backpack mist blower creates a fine mist, applying chemicals over large areas more efficiently than manual spraying. Solo mist sprayers are widely used for applying plant protection chemicals in agricultural environments and for the maintenance of spaces such as public parks and woodlands, but are also used in applications such as disinfection and controlling mosquitoes or other pests and parasites.

The Solo 466 mist blower has a spraying capacity of 14 litres, as well as being lightweight at just 10kg empty. These characteristics make it the environmentally-responsible choice for the economical protection of all crops and plantings anywhere in the world. The mister is also remarkably robust and easy to handle. 

The Solo Master 466 features an ergonomically-shaped and padded tank frame, comfortable, wide padded shoulder straps and a large padded hip belt for operator comfort. The striking design of the mister fan housing integrates all functional components such as starter, fuel tank, spark plug, air filter and carburetor and provides the mist blower with an unmistakable appearance.

Advanced engineering technology from Solo ensures low fuel consumption, reduced exhaust gas emissions and high performance in continuous use, even in very hot temperatures.

In addition to plant protection, the Solo 466 can be used for disinfection, parasite control in animal herds, in stables, storage areas, ships and containers.

The range of accessories makes the 466 even more versatile: If you need to increase the reach of Solo misters (for example when spraying upwards), simply equip them with a liquid booster pump. This enables the use of longer spray wands, whilst keeping the spray pattern and spray volume constant.

The right nozzle for any crop. The standard delivery of the Solo 466 includes a Solo special misting nozzle with four settings ass well as a wide spray grille and a nozzle with interchangeable deflectors. The long reach nozzle directs the spray medium over a distance of up to 11.5 metres. The spray width increases with the wide spray grille. The nozzle with single-sided deflector makes it easier to spray rows of crops and also enables you to reach underneath leaves. The double-sided deflector allows you to treat two rows at a time.

An 11 litre motor-powered backpack nebuliser with a Kawasaki engine that produces a powerful, directed fog of finely atomised disinfectant or other liquid or powder product 18 metres horizontally and 12 metres vertically.

The Guarany mist applicator comes with a variety of distribution nozzles for different flow rates. It can also be used to spray powder product and apply granules with the addition of a separate granule applicator tip accessory. 

The power nebuliser is a powerful ally in the fight against Covid-19 and is used across the world to disinfect large spaces, both indoors and out. It is certified by the World Health Organisation (WHO) for vector (living organism eg; virus, bacteria, parasite that can transmit infectious diseases between humans or from animals to humans) control.

It also has diverse uses in pest control and horticulture where large, dense or difficult to access areas may need to be treated with products such as pesticides.
