The core difference between box-type and split-type fog cannon machines lies in their structural design. Choosing the wrong type can easily lead to installation troubles or inefficient dust control. You can quickly identify the suitable type for your needs from 4 dimensions.

Dimension 1: Installation Method - Box-Type for Quick Integrated Installation, Split-Type for Flexible Adaptation

Box-type fog cannon machines integrate the motor, water tank, and control system into a single cabinet. After arrival, they can be used by simply fixing the base, making them suitable for scenarios requiring rapid deployment such as municipal temporary dust suppression and small workshops. Split-type fog cannon machines have separate designs for the main unit, water tank, and pump station, requiring on-site pipeline assembly. They can adapt to special installation environments like high platforms in mines and irregular spaces in coal sheds.

Dimension 2: Mobility - Box-Type for Portability, Split-Type for Fixed Use

Most box-type machines are equipped with wheeled bases, which can be pushed manually or moved by forklift, making them suitable for multi-location alternating operations (such as dust suppression in different areas of a construction site). Split-type fog cannon machines have scattered and heavy components, which are difficult to move after installation. They are more suitable for long-term dust control at fixed points (such as coal shed exits and mine crushing lines).

Dimension 3: Maintenance Difficulty - Box-Type for Easy Maintenance, Split-Type for Complex Maintenance

The core components of box-type machines are centralized; troubleshooting only requires opening the box, and daily cleaning only needs wiping the outer shell. Split-type fog cannon machines have scattered pipelines and circuits. In case of water leakage or electric leakage, it is necessary to check the pump station and main unit connection points one by one, and the maintenance time is 50% longer than that of box-type machines.

Dimension 4: Space Requirement - Box-Type for Space Saving, Split-Type for Larger Space

Box-type machines feature a compact design, covering an area of only 1-2 square meters, which is suitable for workshops and warehouses with limited space. Split-type fog cannon machines require separate space for the water tank and pump station, with a total space requirement of 3-5 square meters. They are more suitable for open areas such as open-pit mines and large logistics parks.

There is no need to hesitate when choosing a fog cannon machine: select the box-type for temporary use, mobility needs, or limited space; choose the split-type for fixed use, adaptation to special scenarios, or sufficient space. Only by matching your actual needs can you achieve high efficiency.
