The Turbo XE-EXP is a highly specialized unit designed for operation in explosion-prone areas. These applications usually contain volatile dust or vapors and are generally regarded as "Hazardous Locations."
Turbo XE fogging fans are superior atomizers designed for a variety of industrial applications involving humidification, evaporative cooling, or chemical atomization. To determine the quantity of units, horse power and flowmeter size(s) needed for your specific application, refer to the Coverage & Sizing menu.
Turbo XEs produce billions of tiny, fog-like particles combined with powerful air-flow. The Turbo XE-EXP misting system utilizes centrifugal force atomization to achieve reliable operation without the requirement of nozzles, high pressure pumps, compressed air or filtration. This method usually results in increased equipment reliability, as well as significant energy savings over other processes under equal conditions.
These fog fans may be operated manually or automated; running air only or fogging fluid. The fogging output is adjustable and controlled by a flowmeter's needle valve. Flowmeters (see features below) require a water supply of 10 to 100 PSI; however, for special applications, flowmeters can be bypassed and fans gravity-fed.

Every Turbo XE-EXP atomizing fan comes with a choice of flowmeter panels. To maintain reliability, flowmeters need to be operated at 1/3 of their flow rate range or higher. The flowmeter size should be chosen according to the requirements of your application. Use the reference chart below to help select the right product:
