Insecticide and compressed air are transfered to the stations from a central control area.
The fogging operation is controlled by a precision, key actuated programmable controller, providing an accurate amount of insecticide for each area. The facility may be zoned for flexibility in treatment. Areas not activated will be omitted during the cycle. Different areas of the facility may require different treatment schedules, depending on production, operations, type of insect activity, dust factors, etc. One zone may discharge fog at a rate that covers up to 500,000 cu ft. of air space per minute. This speed and rapid dispersion of the insecticide prevents insects from escaping the fog.

At completion of the fogging, the distribution lines are depressurized, allowing insecticide to return to the central supply drum or tank. The system shuts itself off and resets automatically.
