Water Base Fog Technology
Water Base Fog Technology is achieved by pumping a glycol/water mixture through a heat exchanger. This will
vaporize the fluid as it passes through the processing block. The vaporization of the fluids force the hot mixture
through the output nozzle. When mixed with ambient air, it forms an opaque aerosol (fog). The fog is made up of
tiny droplets that form around the small particles in the air. The suspended droplets refract the light, allowing the
fog to take on the color of the light illuminating it.
Eclipse Low Fog Technology
The advanced Eclipse technology uses liquid CO2 to cool the fog, generating a consistent effect at sub zero
temperatures. This process enables you to produce large quantities of low lying fog on a continuous basis without
cue time limitations or the messy water residue associated with other technologies. The Eclipse is compact
and mobile facilitating most applications.
The unique partnering of a fog effect with liquid CO2 is cost effective while providing a longer lasting effect.
Designed to be utilized with the Eclipse, the Ultratec Special Effects genuine ‘Molecular Fog Fluid’ provides
a dry, thick, white effect with a consistent dissipation that eliminates any ambient hazing. The “Eclipse”
couples with the G3000, offering the most advanced controls and fog output available. The Eclipse consumes
approximately 8 lbs. of Liquid Carbon Dioxide per minute of operation.
The system can be controlled via the attached fog machines integral controls, DMX or show control.
The Eclipse Interface allows the Eclipse & Fog Machine to be controlled on separate DMX channels. Standard
equipment includes 10” ducting sleeve to facilitate standard ducting in many configurations based on fog distribution
requirements.
Warning!!
WARNING!!
Introduction
1. Do not remove the outer case.
2. Persons suffering from asthma or allergenic sensitivity may experience irritation, discomfort or allergic
symptoms when exposed to fog effects.
3. Ensure that this unit is grounded at all times. Failure to do so may result in serious injury.
4. Use Ultratec Special Effects fluid ONLY.
WARNING!!
Important Safety Instructions
High pressure gas/liquid. Safety Hazard!
Refrigerated liquids at low temperature. Burn Hazard!
High Temperature contact points on fog machine nozzle. Burn Hazard!
Condensed fluid accumulation. Slip Hazard!

1. Ensure that any operation of the machine is supervised by suitably trained and authorized personnel.
2. Do not modify the machine or use a machine which has been damaged in any way.
3. Allow sufficient air circulation around the machine at all times.
4. Protect the machine from direct weather effects and wet locations.
5. Only use fluids manufactured by Ultratec Special Effects.
6. Do not continue to produce fog when visibility is reduced to 20” 50cm or below.
7. Avoid directing fog output continuously at people, structures or objects within close proximity of the
discharge nozzle.
8. Ensure that adequate exhausting arrangements are available in the event of an emergency.
9. Do not place hands or exposed skin within the first 20” (50 cm) of the discharge nozzle at any time
during fog production.
10. Fog effects will trigger smoke alarms and detectors. Please take suitable precautions to prevent
false alarms.
11. Ensure sufficient air exchange vs. CO2 released.
CO2 is heavier than air and will pool in higher concentrations in lower lying areas like orchestra
pits and below stage.

OPERATING PROCEDURE
G3000/PFI9D/ECLIPSE machine setup
1) Remove the 4” Adapter off the front of the fog machine (if
equipped).
2) Place the fog machine output end directly against the foam gasket
of the ECLIPSE aligning the output nozzle with the hole.
TECH TIP: Proper alignment can be observed by shining a flashlight
into the 10” output opening of the ECLIPSE.
3) Connect the power cable by connecting the grey Neutrik end to
the fog machine and the black Neutrik end to the Eclipse. Turn
until you hear the click when it locks.
4) Insert the fluid tube into a jug of Molecular Fog Fluid and secure it making sure the fluid filter
reaches the bottom of the jug.
5) Heat up the fog machine by turning the power switch to the on position. The fog machine will take
approximately 10 minutes to fully heat up.
Note: For G3000 system a 20-amp circuit is required for 120-volt operation.
For PFI9D system a 15-amp circuit breaker is required.
Using High Pressure CO2 cylinders with syphon tube
1) Connect the CO2
2) Using a white nylon or black fiber washer, connect the other end of the supply
hose to the high pressure CO2 tank.
3) Tighten both CO2 supply fittings snug with an appropriate wrench.
4) Open valve on CO2 tank slowly to check for leaks then open fully, by turning
counterclockwise.
