Le Maitre G300 Operation Manual - Introduction
The G300 is a Microprocessor Controlled, Water Base Fog and Haze generating system.
The Microprocessor is responsible for the following control elements -
Monitoring the heat exchanger temperature.
Driving the heater within the heat-exchanger in a proportional power mode.
Driving the fluid pump units in a pulse mode, relating fluid flow to temperature
Accepting and manipulating data from the Flow, Duration and Interval controls.
Accepting data from the Smoke Switch.
Accepting data from the 0-10 volt inputs.
Sending and receiving data relating to machine/machine linking.
Monitoring the heater and pump power switching devices.
Monitoring the voltage supply.
Determining the mains frequency.
Determining the main mode of operation and adjusting the required parameters.
Monitoring the 31 step mode adjustment preset for parameter offsets.
Monitoring the display preset to allow one of three display modes.
Sending display information relating to FlowRate, Duration Time, Interval Time,
Ready Status, Heater Status, temperature ( if selected) and mode step (if selected).
Water Base Fog Technology

Microprocessor Control
Water Base Fog technology is achieved by pumping a Glycol/Water mixture through a
Heat exchanger. The heat exchanger has been heated to the point where at the fog fluid
mixture will vaporize.
The fluids own vaporization forces the hot mixture out of the output nozzle where,
when it mixes with the ambient air, it forms an opaque aerosol (fog). The fog is made up
of tiny droplets of glycol that form around the small particles in the air. The suspended
droplets reflect the light, which is why fog will take on the colour of the light
illuminating it.
