Why is it necessary to use an OEM EVAP-approved smoke machine in the vehicle's EVAP system?

F.A.Q.
Our licensed STAR EVAP-approved Diagnostic Smoke™ vapor machine technology didn't just pop-up over night. It took literally years of development, in collaboration with OEM-partners; Ford, GM & Chrysler to develop the 'right' technology in order to get the 'right' kind of smoke. These thousands of man-hours of research and testing allowed us to develop the right technology for their EVAP systems. What we ended up with is technology specifically built to major automakers' specifications.

What type of smoke fluid should I use in my smoke machine?

Tempest Technology Corporation
You should use only Tempest “Rosco” smoke fluid in Tempest “Rosco” Smoke Machines. The earlier Tempest smoke machines (1601, 1801, 9000) were manufactured by Martin and use a Martin specified formula. Tempest offers a “generic” smoke fluid that is safe to use in other brands of machines including the Martin machines. See similar questions...

What is a smoke machine?

Smoke Machines FAQs
A smoke machine is basically an eletro-mechanical unit which produces clouds of smoke on demand. Smoke machines are used in theatres, night clubs, film and television studios, theme parks and other entertainment applications to produce a smoke or fog effect which creates the illusion of fog, steam, smoke from a fire, and many other effects. They are also used to create 'safe smoke' in fire training scenarios, for leak testing of buildings and containers, and air flow in wind tunnels. See similar questions...

Why is smoke machine fluid expensive?

Smoke Machines FAQs
Manufacturers use very pure pharmaceutical grade ingredients which have an impurity factor of one per billion or similar (very pure) plus the cost of transportation of bulky heavy fluid containers. Hazer fluid is generally more expensive than smoke machine fluid, as hazers aren't yet as common as smoke machines and use a different fluid type. See similar questions...

How do you find leaks with a smoke machine?

F.A.Q.
The LeakMaster™ generates a thick, long lasting Diagnostic Smoke™ vapor from a non-toxic compound. When this smoke is introduced into the system to be tested, it quickly exits wherever there's a leak - See the smoke and you've found the leak. Additionally, the patented UltraTraceUV? solution when vaporized deposits a fluorescent dye at the exact location of a leak. All you do is use a conventional ultraviolet (UV) light - much like you would an A/C system. See similar questions...

How can I access the web interface from a different machine than the one it is running on?

SpamBayes FAQ

How does a smoke machine work?

Smoke Machines FAQs
A smoke machine, in its simplest terms, is a heating element which gets very hot, through which special fluid is pumped and is vapourised, thereby creating smoke vapour which exits the machine through the nozzle. Electronic circuitry ensures that the heating block in the smoke machine is kept between certain temperatures - too hot and the machine turns into a flame thrower - too cold and it shoots out hot liquid.

How do I clean my smoke machine?

Smoke Machines FAQs
After a while, smoke machines can get clogged up with ash and carbon - a by-product of heating smoke fluid. Smoke fluid can be quite a viscous liquid, so it's almost unavoidable that the machine gets clogged over time. To avoid it happening, follow the instructions you get with your smoke machine with regards to cleaning it. Some suggest a litre of distilled water for every 5 litres of fluid that the machine uses, others suggest water and white vinegar after 40 hours of continuous operation. See similar questions...

What is the difference between a smoke machine and a hazer?

Smoke Machines FAQs
Smoke machines create thick white smoke, whereas hazers create an almost invisible haze which can be seen when beams of light strike it. Hazers are often used when the blast of smoke from a smoke machine would be too intrusive. The visibility of smoke created by smoke machines means they're used for special effects, fire training, and all of the other applications mentioned on this site. See similar questions...

How is the DRX different from a traction machine?

Non-surgical spinal decompression & Calgary Spinal Dec...
The DRX is new state-of-the-art spinal technology! It is FDA and Health Canada approved for non-surgical spinal decompression. It works by pulling gradually, following a logarithmic curve, and gradually builds up in tension, and pulls through 18 different cycles, over 30 minutes. The gradual increase in pull is able to relax the muscles in your back so they do not contract against the machine allowing the DRX to specifically target the areas in your spine that are causing pain/discomfort.

What's the difference between a smoke machine and a fog machine?

Smoke Machines FAQs
Fog machine' is the term used more in the United States, and 'smoke machine' is the term mainly used in the United Kingdom and Europe.
