VDL800SMT2 – SMOKE MACHINE WITH TIMER

1. Introduction

To all residents of the European Union

Important environmental information about this product

This symbol on the device or the package indicates that disposal of the device after its lifecycle could harm

the environment. Do not dispose of the unit (or batteries) as unsorted municipal waste; it should be taken to

a specialised company for recycling. This device should be returned to your distributor or to a local recycling

service. Respect the local environmental rules.

If in doubt, contact your local waste disposal authorities.

Thank you for buying the VDL800SMT2! It is a time controlled smoke machine for creating thick smoke from a special

smoke liquid. Please read the manual thoroughly before bringing this device into service. Make sure that the device was

not damaged in transit. If the device is damaged, contact your dealer and postpone installation of this device.

2. Safety Instructions

Be very careful during the installation: touching live wires can cause life-threatening electroshocks.

Do not touch the device during operation as the housing heats up.

Keep this device away from rain and moisture.

Unplug the mains lead before opening the housing.

• Damage caused by disregard of certain guidelines in this manual is not covered by the warranty and the dealer

will not accept responsibility for any ensuing defects or problems.

• A qualified technician should install and service this device.

• Do not switch the device on immediately after it has been exposed to changes in temperature. Protect the device

against damage by leaving it switched off until it has reached room temperature.

• This device falls under protection class I. It is therefore essential that the device be earthed. Have a qualified

person carry out the electric connection.

• Make sure that the available voltage does not exceed the voltage stated in the specifications of this manual.

• Do not crimp the power cord and protect it against damage. Have an authorised dealer replace it if necessary.

• Disconnect the device from the mains to clean it or when it is not in use. Handle the power cord by the plug only.

• There may be some smoke or a particular smell when the device is activated for the first time. This is normal and

any smoke or smell will gradually disappear.

• Note that damage caused by user modifications to the device are not covered by the warranty.

• Keep the device away from children and unauthorised users.

• Do not direct the device towards anybody.

• Use adapted smoke liquid only and don't heat the liquid.

• Make sure there is always enough liquid in the tank; if not the device could overheat.

3. General Guidelines

• This device is designed for professional use on stage, in discos, theatres, etc. The VDL800SMT2 should only be

used indoors with an alternating current of max. 230VAC/50Hz.

• Smoke machines are not designed for permanent operation: regular operation breaks will prolong their lives.

• Do not shake the device. Avoid brute force when installing or operating the device.

• Select a location where the device is protected against extreme heat (see “7. Technical Specifications”), dust and

moisture. Ensure a minimum distance of 0.5m between the device and any nearby surface or passer-by.

• Use an appropriate safety cable to fix the device (e.g. VDLSC7 or VDLSC8) by the safety ring at the back.

VDL800SMT2_v5 VELLEMAN

• Familiarise yourself with the functions of the device before actually using it. Do not allow operation by unqualified

people. Any damage that may occur will most probably be due to unprofessional use of the device.

• Use the original packaging if the device is to be transported.

• All modifications of the device are forbidden for safety reasons.

• Only use the device for its intended purpose. Other uses may lead to short circuits, burns, electroshocks etc.

Using the device in an unauthorised way will void the warranty.

• Empty the tank prior to transporting the device.

4. Installation

a) Smoke Liquid

• Please use non-inflammable water-based smoke fluid without oil or grease, such as VDLSL1 (1 litre), VDLSL5 (5

litres), VDLSL5H (5 litres high-density smoke liquid) or VDLSLHT5 (5l professional high-density smoke liquid).

• Non-recommended smoke liquid may damage the machine and void the warranty.

1. Unplug the device from the mains.

2. Unscrew the cap from the tank (on top of the device).

3. Carefully pour smoke liquid into the tank; never fill over the "Maximum" mark at the back.

4. Reposition the cap on the tank and close it firmly.

Remark: Do not operate the device when the tank is open.

b) Fuse

• Only fit or replace a fuse when the device is unplugged from the mains.

• Replace a blown fuse with a fuse of the same type and rating (see “7. Technical Specifications”):

1. Unplug the device from the mains.

2. Unscrew the fuse holder at the back with an appropriate screwdriver.

3. Remove the old fuse and install a new one.

4. Replace the fuse holder and fasten it with the screwdriver.

c) Mounting the Device

• Have the device installed by a qualified person, respecting EN 60598-2-17 and all other applicable norms.

• The construction to which the device is attached should be able to support 10 times the weight of the device for

one hour without deformation.

• The installation must always be secured with a secondary attachment e.g. a safety cable.

• Never stand directly below the device when it is being mounted, removed or serviced. Have a qualified technician

check the device once a year and once before you bring it into service.

• Install the device in a location with few passers-by that is inaccessible to unauthorised persons.

• Overhead mounting requires extensive experience: calculating work load limits, determining the installation

material to be used… Have the material and the device itself checked regularly. Do not attempt to install the

device yourself if you lack these qualifications as improper installation may result in injuries.

• Adjust the desired inclination angle via the mounting bracket and tighten the bracket screws.

• Make sure there is no flammable material within a 50cm radius of the device.

• Have a qualified electrician carry out the electric connection.

• Connect the device to the mains with the power plug. Don’t connect it to a dimming pack.

• The installation has to be approved by an expert before the device is taken into service.

5. Use

Connect the device to the mains and flick the power switch at the back of the device to ON. After the warm-up time

(approx. 4 minutes) the device is ready for use. The remote control is equipped with 2 rotary controls and 3 push

buttons with corresponding LEDs:

VDL800SMT2_v5 VELLEMAN

• Press the TIMER ON/OFF button on the remote; the LED above the button should light, indicating activation of

the function.

• You may now set the INTERVAL and DURATION adjustment knobs to the desired position.

Notes: INTERVAL: time between bursts of fog.

DURATION: time that the fog machine will run during the burst.

1. interval adjustment

2. duration adjustment

3. timer LED

4. manual momentary LED

5. manual/power LED

6. manual control momentary button

7. timer latching button

8. continuous latching button

You can also make the machine burst fog by holding the FOG button at the back of the machine pressed.

6. Cleaning and Maintenance

1. All screws should be tightened and free of corrosion.

2. The housing, the lenses, the mounting supports and the installation location (e.g. ceiling, suspension, trussing)

should not be deformed, modified or tampered with e.g. do not drill extra holes in mounting supports, do not

change the location of the connections…

3. Mechanically moving parts must not show any signs of wear and tear.

4. The electric power supply cables must not show any damage. Have a qualified technician maintain the device.

5. Disconnect the device from the mains prior to maintenance activities.

6. Wipe the device regularly with a moist, lint-free cloth. Do not use alcohol or solvents.

7. There are no user-serviceable parts, apart from the fuse (see “4. Installation”).

8. Contact your dealer for spare parts if necessary.

9. Clean the heating element every 30 hours of use with a special cleaning liquid available from your dealer (order

code VDLCL). Fill the tank with 1/3 of the bottle of cleaning liquid and let the machine run for a while. When the

device is cleaned, remove the remaining cleaning liquid and rinse the tank thoroughly with distilled water. Never

use regular water for cleaning or rinsing!

verhouding zijn, kan Velleman® beslissen het desbetreffende

artikel te vervangen door een gelijkwaardig artikel of de

aankoopsom van het artikel gedeeltelijk of volledig terug te

betalen. In dat geval krijgt u een vervangend product of
