Fog cannon machine is a professional dust suppression equipment widely used for air pollution control, industrial and mining dust management, construction site dust reduction, and fog haze treatment. It is also called dust removal fog cannon, mist cannon, or spray cannon. The machine atomizes water into fine mist particles that combine with airborne dust, causing the dust to settle quickly. It is an effective solution for dust control and air purification.
YG Machinery has been developing and manufacturing fog cannon machines for over 10 years. Our current generation models are now serving customers in more than 40 countries. We combine practical experience with continuous product improvement to deliver reliable dust suppression equipment.

Main Structure of Water Mist Cannon
The dust control fog cannon consists of water tanks, water pipes, plunger pumps, nozzles, fans, generators (petrol or diesel), horizontal steering gear, a vertical pitching device, an electronic control box, remote control, and other components.
Our fog cannons use new impellers, high-quality backflow preventers, and high-performance motors to spray mist at steady speed with greater range. Every machine is assembled by experienced workers and tested before delivery.
Features of Water Mist Cannon
High efficiency: The sprayed water mist quickly combines with dust for obvious dust reduction effect.
Wide range: High-pressure centrifugal fan enables long spray range and large coverage area.
Energy saving: Fog cannon dust suppression saves 70-80% of water compared to traditional equipment such as spray guns and sprinklers.
Easy to move and operate: Low installation cost and maintenance cost.
Better dust suppression effect: Reduces particulate matter in the air and provides cooling for workers in hot summer conditions.
Compact design: Saves effective space in the plant and reduces construction investment.
Proven reliability: YG fog cannons have been continuously improved through generations of design based on real customer feedback from mines, construction sites, and ports worldwide.
Application of Fog Cannon Machine
- Control of excessive pollution, dust, haze, and urban environment
- Dust and temperature reduction in demolition sites, water conservancy dams, highways, and bridges
- Dust pollution control in coal yards, mining areas, ports, power plants, steel plants, and coke plants
- Large-scale disinfection and epidemic prevention for airports, highways, stations, garbage dumps, and post-disaster areas
- Dust-lowering, moisturizing, and temperature-lowering disinfection in sports venues and hot venues
The fog cannon generally includes mobile fog cannon, fixed fog cannon, and vehicle-mounted fog cannon. The greater the power of the centrifugal fan, the larger the range. YG provides all three types based on customer requirements.
Customer Case – Saudi Arabia Quarry Project
In 2024, a large quarry company in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia faced heavy dust pollution from stone crushing and material loading areas. Workers reported poor air visibility and machinery wear due to fine dust particles.
They purchased two YG-60 fog cannon machines with built-in generators and automatic rotation systems. After installation, the system significantly reduced dust concentration and lowered equipment maintenance frequency.
“The YG fog cannon works well in our high-temperature desert conditions. Dust control is far more efficient than before.” – Project Manager, Saudi Quarry Company
How to Maintain the Fog Cannon
Proper operation and maintenance extend the service life of your fog cannon machine. Follow these practices:
Daily: Rinse and spray with water several times after use to clear remaining liquid in the tank, pump, and pipeline.
Weekly: Check and adjust the status of each component. Add lubrication to moving parts and keep the machine clean.
Long-term storage: Clean the machine and components including V-belts, spray hoses, nozzles, mixers, and suction pipes.
Due to its effective dust source prevention principle, the fog cannon has become one of the most effective products for urban dust management. YG fog cannons are widely used in building demolition, earthworks, municipal environmental protection, open pit coal mines, garbage landfill sites, docks, and ports. We exported a fog cannon machine to Australia in July 2023 and received good praise from the customer.
What are the Reasons for the Noise of Dust Cannon?
Unstable base: When the fan works, an unbalanced base produces noise. Fix the base in time, change the position, or fill with gaskets to maintain balance.
Damaged machine parts: Cut off power immediately, turn off the machine, check the system, and replace damaged parts.
Fan speed too high or wrong rotation direction: Adjust according to the manual. This error may come from factory settings.
Foreign matter in the fan: Common in construction sites or sand quarries. Remove surrounding foreign objects promptly.
Always pay attention to the operation of the machine and perform regular maintenance. Before use, keep the surrounding environment dry and clean the motor appearance regularly. Ensure the air inlet is not blocked by dust particles.
