Operating instructions

5. Operating the POLAR CONTROLLER

5.1 Selecting the Location

Secure a good location for the machine to rest solidly on the floor separated from the

output so that the output of the machine will not be vacuumed back into the back of the

machine to cause heating up of the low-ground fluid. It is possible to place a barrier to

stop or block flow of fog back into the unit. Bear in mind that the unit uses two 8ft output

tubes. The actual location of unit will be some distance behind the point where the fog

appears. Try to lay the tubes out as straight as possible and leave an open area out in

front. Do not bend the hoses in any sharp angle as this would cause back pressure and

reduce fog output. Any 90° turn in tubing reduces output by 1/3, lay-out needs to be clean

and smooth, each avenue of slow down in air flow reduces output by an additional 10%.

5.2 Rest period before operating

The machine needs to rest for at least a 20-minute period after any kind of movement,

especially, if it has been tilted more than a 20° angle.

5.3 Electrical Power Requirements

This machine requires TWO separate 120V/20Amp (or 230V/13A) circuits for operation.

During Polar Controller

operation these two circuits should be dedicated to the Polar

Controller

. If you have any doubts about the capacity or grounding of your existing

circuits, consult a qualified electrician.

5.4 Hooking things up

1. Included: the fluid tubing, filter and bottle cap. The fluid supply connector is located on

the side of the unit. The small round plastic opening will allow you to insert the tubing.

Insert it only deep enough to make a good connection but not forcing it to where it may

collapse the end of the tube. Once the tubing is connected, place the filter in the bottom

of the container of CITC Low-ground Fogging Fluid and screw the cap on, making sure

that the vent hole is opened and not blocked to allow the air ventilation and evacuation of

fluid .

2. Included with your packet are two (2) eight foot tubes, the double 4” adapter to screw

onto the front and the 45° elbows. Screw on the double 4” adapter to the front outlet by

using the eight (8) assembly screws being sure that it is tight (not overtight). Place the

small side of the curved pipes onto the 4” outlets so that it is a nice tight fit. Attach the 5”

tubing to the large end. If you need to remove the hose, take off the entire elbow from

the machine, which is an easy connection. It may not need to have any kind of clamp on

there to hold it in place, unless stretching the hose requires it be attached with sheet-

metal screws.

3. Attach the elbows so that they are pointing in a downward position unless you’re going to

split the output and have one output going one way and the output going the other. You

can then have one elbow facing off at a 45° angle but still pointing in a downward
