We offer a ready-made ultrasonic humidifier assembled from a DIY kit.

Need the cheapest humidifier? It is possible!

You can assemble it yourself by purchasing the most essential components.

For example, by purchasing a fog generator module and a power supply, you can independently assemble an ultrasonic air humidifier, the power of which will be enough for 50-150 square meters.

On our site there is a step-by-step instruction for assembling a humidifier with your own hands.

Go to detailed description assembling a humidifier from a DIY kit.

Now on the shelves of stores there is a huge selection of household humidifiers, ranging from the simplest "donut" that floats in a glass of water and powered by a USB port, and ending with expensive office humidifiers with sophisticated automation.Basically, most of such goods come to us from neighboring China, and therefore, the durability of the device is not worth talking about. For example, my 5 liter household humidifier in my mycelium worked for only six months, after that not a single workshop was able to bring it back to life. It's good that for the sample I ordered a small batch of mist maker from China, these are small ultrasonic fog generators that only need a 24 volt power supply. They look like this:

The difference between these two models is only in the diameter of the working plate covered with ceramics, in the first photo the diameter is 20mm, in the second it is 16mm, and naturally the first one works much more efficiently. I only had to make a float, and take the bucket under the container where the mist maker is floating. Works reliably, I only add water. A little about water - the water should be as pure as possible, the ideal option is distilled, the durability of the ceramic plate depends on the water, and secondly, what salts are in the water, then when ultrasound works, all these salts will float together with the fog in your room, covering everything with a thin white coating. How to make a humidifier, I told and showed in the video.

The smoke generator consists of a container for a smoke-liquid, a pump for supplying liquid to the heating chamber and the heating chamber itself, in which the smoke-liquid turns into steam in a fraction of a second and, under the influence of pressure, goes out, creating the effect of smoke, and in fact - fog. The heating chamber of the smoke machine is a spiral tube heated by a heating element. Roughly speaking, the system is like an electric kettle. And where there is a boiling process, scale is formed. This scale is the most common reason for the failure of smoke generators.

The second problem is less common, but also leads to "coking" of the smoke machine heating chamber.

This is overheating of the heating element in the heating chamber. This malfunction occurs mainly in cheap generators. In addition to the likelihood of a more rapid failure of the smoke generator, overheating of the heater will lead to an unpleasant, "burnt" smell of the outgoing smoke. This is due to poor adjustment / calibration of the thermostat of the smoke generator, which regulates the heating temperature in the chamber.

The appearance of an unpleasant odor may also be the result of the use of low-quality smoke-liquid. Therefore, we strongly recommend using only specialized fluids recommended by the manufacturer.

In order for your smoke generator to serve you faithfully for a long time, the smoke machine needs periodic maintenance. Maintenance is not difficult, it consists of flushing your smoke generator.

It is done like this: instead of the standard fluid, distilled water is poured into the smoke generator tank, then turn on the smoke generator and run the water for 3-5 minutes at the full power of the device. Depending on the intensity of use of the device, it is recommended to do this procedure every 12 hours of operation, however, if you do not use the smoke generator often, it is recommended to carry out preventive cleaning more often.

Also, on the Internet it is advised to use descaling agents or a vinegar solution. However, we do not recommend the use of these products, as the vinegar can damage the seals and pistons of the fume generator pump, and the descaler can clog the heater tube even more.

What if the heating chamber is already clogged? Alas, only a replacement. You will not be able to clean a completely clogged chamber. However, if you use a specialized smoke fluid and carry out simple procedures for flushing the smoke machine regularly, it will serve you faithfully for a long time.

The main stages of designing an ultrasonic humidifier for a greenhouse are shown. At the end is the kal.

Here is a very simple way to save money on a humidifier Air humidifier for 20 sq.m. For his food.

Link to site my.housecope.com/wp-content/uploads/ext/1316/component/content/article/10-catalog/37-diy-generator-kholodnogo-tumana?Itemid=118 How to make a fog generator.

The cold fog generator is designed to process various premises: Cowsheds, Pigs,.

The idea is to create a system that produces smoke that is not harmful to health.

For the organization of high-quality training of personnel of the gas and smoke protection service and the safe conduct of training by personnel in the smoke chamber, we suggest using a safe smoke generator.

To obtain a smoke-forming liquid, glycerin, water and alcohol are used in a ratio of 85 parts of water, 15 parts of glycerin, 5 parts of alcohol.

The evaporation chamber is made of a brass cylinder with a hole inside.
Liquid supply tube.
Windscreen washer pump from a passenger car.
1 liter container for car oil.
Heating element (spiral).
Current transformer (12 volt power supply).
Metal case (from the old system unit).
Mica (serves as an insulator between the evaporator housing and the coil).
Thermal relay 50-300 ° C (to prevent overheating of the device).

The system has been tested. In the future, it is planned to modernize the system, which will improve its tactical and technical characteristics.

The expediency of this idea lies in the fact that it is the low cost of manufacturing the device, the availability of consumables for repair, the simplicity in the manufacture of liquid to obtain "smoke", safety, these are the main differences of this smoke generator from imported counterparts on sale.

The implementation of this idea is possible in any department.

The system is unpretentious in operation.
It is possible to use the device when conducting a lesson not only in a smoke chamber, but also when conducting fire-tactical exercises (classes).
This system is cheap to use, the cost of one liter of liquid for an imported smoke generator is from 300 to 500 rubles, and for our generator - 50 rubles per liter.

On the basis of the article by V. N. Posokhin, R. G. Safiullin "Perspective designs of air humidifiers based on porous rotating atomizers" (available on the Internet), the author of this video made a device that can be used as an original water atomizer. If you turn it on, then the home generator will provide fog.

What is the working principle of this water spray?

Liquid falling on a smooth rotating disk spreads over it in the form of a thin film until the surface tension forces are able to hold the liquid in the form of a film, then the edges of the film break off and, due to the same surface tension forces, form a drop. In this case, the drops do not have a strictly defined size, since the film breaks into pieces of different sizes. It is important to note that the rupture of the film should occur on the surface of the disk, and not at its edges, only in this case the droplet sizes will be minimal.

The higher the rotational speed of the disk, the thinner the film and the smaller the droplets, but there is a limit. Above 20 krpm, the droplet size no longer decreases.
The disc from the cover is light enough not to induce strong vibrations that kill the bearing, provided that its edges are lightened by a sheared rim and sharpened. Over 20 K
the disk begins to vibrate despite good alignment, and the blades are not the issue, without them it behaved almost the same way.
The blades on the disc are required for two reasons.
1. The sprayed liquid creates a cloud which is partially sucked in through the engine cooling system. The blades drive the cloud away.
2. The purpose of spraying is to accelerate evaporation (I don’t even know by how many orders of magnitude) due to a larger surface, but even here spraying alone is not enough. The fact is that the liquid will evaporate only until the air humidity rises to 100%, and in a cloud of sprayed liquid this happens instantly.That is why wet clothes refuse to dry in tropical forests when the heat is over 30 degrees and humidity is 100%. After saturation of the air with moisture, droplets of liquid will settle on surfaces like rain from microdroplets. But the blades solve this problem by driving humid air and liquid droplets away from the spray zone.

From this, the conclusion is that the flow rate of the liquid rests on the speed of rotation of the disk, (so that the liquid film breaks before reaching the edge of the disk) the size and number of blades, (i.e., the volume of the driven
air) and humidity (the higher the humidity, the slower the evaporation).
Sprayers on porous discs allow you to get drops of the same size, this is important for paint spraying systems (yes, paint is applied as well), but this method disappointed the author of the video, the drops turned out to be larger than with a smooth disc, although I used a disc with the smallest grain, the diameter of the disc itself is possibly small. The washer is glued to the grinding
epoxy disc. The thick epoxy will not penetrate the stone or clog the pores.

A cold fog generator will help make the fight against bacteria and insects effective. This device is designed for industrial and household disinfection, including in the presence of animals. How to choose a unit, what are its advantages over other means of struggle, are there any contraindications? To understand all the nuances, information about the device and the principle of operation, as well as advice and feedback from specialists and users, will help.

Aerosol equipment allows you to disinfect premises in order to get rid of harmful or infected insects. Also, cold fog treatments can serve the following purposes:

sanitation (decrease in the level of pathogenic microflora);

fumigation (one of the ways to destroy pests and pathogens of plants).

For the formation of disinfection steam, fog generators are used. By the type of exposure, they are divided into cold and hot. The hot fog machine is mainly used for offices and public places. Cold fog exposure is more versatile.

Attention! It is possible to destroy not only adults, but also their larvae, using a hot fog generator. However, this method is dangerous for living quarters, especially those with pets.

Where to use the home fog generator:

living quarters, including those where pets live;

incubators (for processing chickens);

greenhouses;

warehouse and production facilities;

places of storage and production of food.

Can be used to treat living spaces

The transformation of the aqueous solution into steam occurs after contact with the air flow generated by the compressor. Depending on the type of generator, the compressor can be powered by an internal combustion engine or an electric motor.

The droplet size depends on the parameters of the nozzle and varies from 10 to 80 microns. The aerosol temperature corresponds to the ambient temperature, the suspension is in the air for about 4 hours. During the operation of the device, the noise level is not high. The set can be supplied with up to 4 nozzles.

Compared with other existing methods for removing insects and disinfecting a room, this method has the following advantages:

the ability to use all types of water-based liquid insecticides;

high efficiency, due to the impact on everything, even remote surfaces and the capture of the entire room;

easier than manually spraying the product;

economical solution consumption;

the processing process takes no more than 2 hours, and the quarantine period is about 6-7 hours;

provides a high degree of safety for people and animals;

does not spoil wallpaper, interior items, etc.

A cold fog generator can handle a large room in no time

Due to their mobility and fairly simple operation, such devices are available not only for specialists, but also for home use. As a rule, it is purchased by the owners of various industrial and commercial premises, as well as for private use.

In order to make the right choice, you should understand the following questions:

The first question will help you decide on the type of unit - to buy hot or cold. The second is to choose the power. Having calculated the flow rate of the selected drug and the required volume, you should choose the device that can spray this volume in a time from 30 to 60 minutes. It is this exposure period that is recommended when working with a cold fog generator. For large rooms, multiple generators can be used at the same time, reducing the total exposure time.

Attention! In some cases, the exposure time can be increased if it is permissible with the solution used and the specific model of the generator.

Before starting work, you should pack dishes, personal hygiene products, etc. in an airtight package. If possible, remove paintings and other decorative elements from the walls. Remove people and animals from the premises, remove food. Remove dust, do wet cleaning. All persons present during processing should wear clothing that covers the body, as well as respirators to protect the respiratory tract.

After spraying the product, you should send your clothes to the wash, wash your hands, and take a shower if necessary. After the suspension has settled, the room should be ventilated. Depending on the area, the procedure can last from one to several hours. In living quarters, surfaces that are often in contact should be washed - doorknobs, tables, etc. A soap solution should be used.

Before starting work, you need to prepare the room

SM Bure. A new generation Korean apparatus designed for a volume of 2.5 to 4.5 liters. Works with all types of pesticides, disinfectants, air fresheners, antibiotics, etc. The design is lightweight, easy to handle and move.

Longray 2680 A. China-made ultra-low fog generator. Designed for various types of fluids, both water and oil based. Has proven itself well when working in:

household premises;

in public places;

industrial use;

agriculture;

for public health.

Forms an almost invisible suspension, which improves its spread over the cultivated area. The volume of the tank is 6 liters, and the weight of the unit is 4.20 kg. The body is plastic, resistant to chemicals.

BURE - W2. A cordless, compact generator powered by a lithium-ion battery. The body is made of stainless steel, the total weight is 4.3 kg. It works with a minimum liquid consumption, there is an option to control the pump power.

A cold fog generator is able to cope with such a problem as insects, as well as disinfect a wide variety of premises. Such a device can be used both for domestic and industrial purposes. To choose the optimal model, you need to understand what type of processing is required, as well as what the area of the room is. Based on this, you can choose a model, focusing on the parameter of the fluid flow rate.

Having disassembled the smoke machine, it turned out that the extraneous sound comes from a centrifugal pump. Having unwound the pump itself, it is noticeable that the rubber valve has corroded, which creates pressure and at the same time is the focus of the entire centrifugal system. I will say right away that it is impractical to buy a new pump. It costs more than half the cost of a smoke generator, but, as practice shows, it does not last very long, and it is almost impossible to find repair kits for it. Therefore, it was decided to collect from what is at hand.
An old submersible fuel pump from the Volga was just lying idle in the garage, but after checking the voltage at the outputs to the "native" pump, the multimeter showed 220v AC ... (Volzhsky fuel pump 12-14v DC).
Since it is impossible directly, then you will have to install a step-down power supply. I took the transformer from an old DVD player. It gives out a bunch of different voltages. The thickest wires delivered 14V no load and 12V under load, even without a capacitor. That was enough for us. I fixed it to the body with clamps and brought the wires to the motor.
I connected the "input" of the transformer to the native controller. Then he burned out a hole in the tank for the fuel pump and secured it.
I brought out the hose and connected it to my own pump, so as not to alter the hose adapters. Collected everything in reverse order and hurray! Everything is working. Do-it-yourself repair of MLB-1500 stage smoke generator completed. You can start operating it.
