The Tintschl Flowmarker® is an established fog generator for various applications. From one tank filling this wireless handheld device generates long-lasting and thermally inactive fog for approximately 20 minutes or for about 420 outputs lasting three seconds.
The fog is generated from a special fog fluid. This fog fluid is harmless to the health and causes no residue in the environment to be filled with fog.
After a short warm-up period of about 30 seconds max, the fully charged FlowMarker® can be operated for two to five hours – depending on the duration and the frequency of each fog output.
The starter package includes the FlowMarker® as the basic device, a rigid application tube and battery charger, all placed in a carrying case. All components necessary for starting operation of the device are included.
The carrying case provides already the space for the Hydra and a flexible application tube of standard length 5m, which must be ordered separately.
The standard application tube made of impact-resistant plastic can be extended by 75cm up to 150cm. If required, the Flowmarker® is upgradeable to radio operation.
For those areas difficulty to reach we recommend the accessory Hydra , which is an adapter easy to handle and coupled by a flexible tube. Further fields of application can be covered by the FlowTracer.
Optional extra: Hydra
As an extension module for the FlowMarker®, we recommend the Hydra for fogging in hard-to-reach areas, such as under ceiling outlets, behind cladding, in model buildings and wherever fog helps to make air flows visible.
The heart of the Hydra is an adapter for the FlowMarker® to attach a flexible, 3m long application hose (which can also be ordered up to 10m on customer request) instead of the rigid application tube, at the end of which the fog comes out in the usual condition.
This way, fog can be directed to a remote site. The positioning of the basic unit is thus only limited by the hose length.
By combining different hoses with different fog application tubes, application-adapted, flexible fog probes can be assembled.
However, the Hydra not only has the already familiar functions from the FlowMarker® of mist cooling and pulse damping, but has also been supplemented by a blower chamber: with an adjustable micro-blower, the speed and quantity of the mist output can now be very finely determined.
Compared to the FlowMarker®, the Hydra offers a slightly increased fog output, so that the Hydra can also be used on a case-by-case basis when simply “more fog” is required. The discharge speed of the fog can be continuously adjusted.
The blower chamber has a finely adjustable control knob on the outside for the blower, which is supplied with power via the charging socket of the FlowMarker®. This ensures that the unit can continue to be operated in a completely mobile and mains-independent manner.
The Hydra can also be used with slight counterpressure, for example in a closed wind tunnel.
