Dramm - Autofog Complete Fogger Unit
Brand: Dramm
Autofog Complete Fogger Unit
The Autofog is a low-volume automatic fogger: you mix the solution, set the timer and leave, and the machine treats the house overnight with nobody inside. A patented, recalibratable air-atomizing nozzle breaks the solution into billions of micro-particles that fill the space and settle evenly on leaf surfaces, using a fraction of the volume a hydraulic sprayer needs and leaving no run-off. Two things vary on this page and they are independent of each other. Machine size sets treated area, tank volume, output rate and supply voltage, while nozzle material sets what chemistry the machine can run, because the brass nozzle Dramm fits as standard is not suited to corrosive products and the stainless steel nozzle is.
Size the machine to the house, check the circuit, then decide the nozzle. Mini 120V is the MLVH-10A: an 8 liter tank on a two-wheel dolly with nozzle height adjustable from 5 to 7 ft, treating up to 5,000 sq ft from an ordinary 120 V outlet, and the right size for a single quonset, a propagation house or a headhouse. Standard 120V is the SLVH-20A: a 7 liter tank treating up to 12,000 sq ft, still on 120 V, with a fogger head that separates from the control and compressor carriage on 33 ft of hose and cord so the nozzle can sit where the fog needs to start. Large 220V is the LVH-20A: a 14 liter tank treating up to 30,000 sq ft with a head that separates on 100 ft of hose and cord, but it needs a 240 V 60 Hz single-phase circuit rather than a standard outlet, so confirm the supply before ordering. Nozzle then decides the chemistry: Brass - standard duty is the nozzle Dramm fits as standard and covers conventional insecticides, fungicides and biorationals, while Stainless steel - corrosive duty is the same machine supplied with the stainless nozzle Dramm builds for corrosive duty, and is what to order if you fog oxidizers or other corrosive disinfectants. Adding HAF horizontal air flow fans more than doubles the area any of the three sizes will carry.

Key Features
- Runs unattended on a timer, so a house is fogged overnight with no applicator inside
- Low-volume fogging uses a fraction of the solution a hydraulic sprayer needs and leaves no run-off
- The patented nozzle is recalibratable, so it is reset to its rated output rather than thrown away
- Dual filtered removable solution tank keeps the nozzle clear and makes filling and cleaning quick
- Oilless compressor puts no oil into the spray over the crop
- The Standard 120V and Large 220V builds separate the fogger head from the carriage, so the nozzle can be placed where the fog should start
- The stainless steel nozzle builds take oxidizers and other corrosive chemistry the brass nozzle is not suited to
- Plastic and stainless construction will not rust or corrode in daily greenhouse service
Ideal Applications
- Overnight insecticide, fungicide and miticide applications in production greenhouses
- Biorational and biopesticide programs where even coverage matters more than volume
- Oxidizer and corrosive disinfectant fogging, using a stainless steel nozzle build
- Sanitation of truck trailers, break rooms and cart storage
- Small propagation houses, headhouses and research ranges, using the Mini
- Larger ranges where HAF fans carry the fog past the machine's unaided coverage
