Concept Spirit - Model 900 - Smoke Generator

The Spirit 900 is well suited to applications where continuous, high smoke output is required, since it utilises a continuously rated pump. Like the Concept Colt 4, it generates the most persistent water based smoke of any smoke machine available. Typical water based smoke systems are resistant to temperatures of 35-45°C where as the Spirit 900 using fluid A is still effective when temperatures reach 55°C.

Product Details

Using a protected solid state relay for heater switching at zero volts, an IP65 rated digital microprocessor temperature control displaying actual and set temperatures, and splashproof switches and indicators the Spirit 900 does not compromise in the quality of the components used within the system. The temperature of the heat exchanger is PID controlled so that the heat is pulsed as main set point is reached, minimising overshoot and undershoot.

The pump draws Smoke Fluid A (persistent) or Smoke Fluid B (quickly dispersing) from its integral 2 litre reservoir (or an external reservoir if specified), forcing it into Concept's unique precision machined heat exchanger, where it is vaporised. The fluid consumption is extremely low - just 50ml per minute on maximum output - meaning exceptional running costs!

On exiting the heat exchanger, the vapour condenses to form dense, white, non toxic smoke, with an incredibly consistent, and small particle size of 0.2-0.3 micron mmd.

All Spirit 900s are supplied with a 5 metre remote control. The unit can come with an optional wireless remote control with 150m range (line of sight).

The Spirit 900 was voted overall winner in Fire Professional magazine’s Back to Back smoke generator test, against 4 other leading brands. They concluded that:

'So the Concept Engineering Spirit 900 wins, overall, across the testing criteria, it scored heavily and consistently. It's beautifully made, works well and from what we have seen here makes extremely efficient use of the fluid - a consumable that those of you who are acutely budget conscious will want to keep your eye on.'

Applications

Smoke generator device for leak testing & building envelope testing - Monitoring and Testing - Leak Detection

Smoke is the perfect medium for discovering where leaks are and how big they are! Filling a `leaky` building, ductwork, pipes, aircraft or containment area with smoke and ideally adding a small amount of pressure to the area being tested, will result in a visible discharge of smoke and, simply put, the greater the volume of smoke, the bigger the leak.
Smoke generator devices for lev testing, spray booth clearance testing & air tracing - Monitoring and Testing - Air Monitoring and Testing

For many years, materials containing isocyanate have been the single biggest cause of occupational asthma in the UK. Vehicle paint sprayers are 80 times more likely to develop occupational asthma than workers in other industries. This is caused by the inhalation of the fine paint mist that is generated when paint spraying. There is a requirement for the measurement and display of `clearance times` for spray booths / rooms set by the HSE and the Motor Vehicle Repair (MVR) to meet the requirements of Control of ...
Smoke generator device for fire training, emergency evacuation & BA training - Health and Safety - Emergency Response

The Fire Training Range, designed and manufactured by Concept, has been developed to add realism to training scenarios or any type of fire safety training. For complete portability, unbeatable reliability and quality smoke output, the Colt 4 Turbo is in a class of it`s own. For large scale applications the ViCount is the ultimate choice for fire training. With almost 50 years experience in the generation of artificial smoke for fire brigades, Concept are in an unrivaled position to supply the equipment and advice ...
Smoke generator device for building envelope, energy studies & air tightness testing - Construction & Construction Materials

The air tightness or leakage rate of a building is the uncontrolled flow of air through holes, gaps and cracks in the fabric of a building, which may not be detectable simply by looking at the outside of the building. Filling a building or void with smoke and pressurising that volume, will result in a visible discharge of smoke from any problem areas. Smoke is the perfect medium for discovering where leaks are and how big they are!
Smoke generator device for PPV & impulse ventilation testing - Air and Climate - Air Monitoring and Testing

When water-based artificial smoke is introduced into a rapidly moving air stream, the particles that make up the artificial smoke evaporate much more quickly than they do in a static environment. So if you are looking to produce an artificial smoke that better represents the smoke created by a real fire, we would always recommend the ViCount smoke generator, the smoke from which is virtually unaffected by fast moving air streams. Used world wide PPV training centre`s and to test impulse ventilation systems. A Home ...
