High-Output Industrial
Fogging System for Large-Area
Cooling & Humidification

CoolAire Hellcat Mobile Fog System (65-Gallon)

Manufactured in the USA by Jaybird Manufacturing —
over 40 years of atomization experience

The CoolAire Hellcat combines Jaybird’s high-output XE centrifugal atomizer with a rugged 65-gallon self-contained tank and oscillating fogging head, delivering powerful mobile cooling, humidification, and chemical fogging for demanding industrial environments.

Unlike high-pressure nozzle systems or spinning disc foggers, the Hellcat utilizes Jaybird’s nozzle-free centrifugal atomizing technology. This system produces extremely fine fog droplets while eliminating clogging nozzles, high-pressure pumps, and complex maintenance requirements.

The Hellcat platform features a large integrated supply tank, four-sweep oscillation for wide coverage, and a pivoting fogging head for directional control. Its rugged wheeled chassis allows operators to quickly position the unit where cooling or humidification is needed, making it ideal for mobile or temporary applications.

Water flow is controlled by a quarter-turn ball valve, allowing operators to easily regulate fog output depending on environmental conditions or application requirements. The system can operate continuously or be integrated with external control systems for automated operation.

Indoor and outdoor applications include industrial humidification, evaporative cooling, odor control, dust suppression, and chemical fogging.

Stainless-steel fabrication combined with UV-stabilized polymers provides long-term durability in harsh industrial and greenhouse environments. The fogging head nests inside the tank for safe transport and storage, and an optional SST stainless plumbing package is available for use with highly corrosive chemicals.

Industrial Cooling & Humidification Applications

The CoolAire Hellcat mobile fogging system is designed for industrial evaporative cooling, humidification, and environmental control in facilities where large-area cooling or high fog output is required.

Large integrated tank allows for easy filling
and extended operation in the field

Typical applications include:

  • Industrial facility cooling
  • Warehouse and loading dock cooling
  • Agricultural and livestock cooling
  • Greenhouse environmental control
  • Dust suppression
  • Odor control and chemical fogging
  • Outdoor cooling for commercial workspaces
By combining the high-output XE centrifugal atomizer with a large self-contained water tank and oscillating fogging head, the Hellcat delivers powerful mobile fogging performance while remaining easy to deploy in changing work environments.

Industrial Fogging Applications

The CoolAire Hellcat mobile fogging system provides portable evaporative cooling, humidification, and chemical fogging for industrial facilities, agricultural environments, and outdoor commercial workspaces. By combining Jaybird’s high-output centrifugal atomizing technology with a large integrated water supply tank, the Hellcat delivers reliable fog production for applications where temporary or mobile environmental control is required.

Unlike high-pressure misting systems, Jaybird centrifugal fogging units operate without clogging nozzles or high-pressure pumps, producing extremely fine fog droplets that evaporate quickly and efficiently for cooling and humidity control.

Rugged wheeled design allows for
easy positioning and deployment

Common industrial applications include:

  • Industrial evaporative cooling systems
  • Warehouse and manufacturing facility cooling
  • Greenhouse humidification and plant cooling
  • Agricultural and livestock cooling
  • Dust suppression in industrial environments
  • Odor control and chemical fogging
  • Outdoor cooling for workspaces and event areas
  • Humidity control for sensitive electronic environments
    including data centers
Because the Hellcat is built on a mobile platform with a large
integrated water tank, it can be quickly deployed for temporary
cooling or humidification projects where fixed installations are not practical. The oscillating fogging head also allows wide-area coverage, making the system effective for large open spaces requiring distributed fog coverage.

3-Stage Mechanical Control System

The CoolAire Hellcat uses a rugged electro-mechanical control system designed for dependable operation in industrial environments. Instead of circuit boards or solid-state electronics, the system relies on heavy-duty switches and contactors, allowing the unit to run on standard AC power while remaining simple to service and integrate with external timers or facility control systems.

Power Control Modes

The main selector provides three operating positions:

  • OFF – disconnects power to the system
  • ON – enables manual operation or integration with external timers, computers, or automation systems
  • AUTO SHUT-OFF – automatically shuts the unit down when tank level becomes low, protecting the pump from running dry

Independent Mist & Sweep Controls

  • Mist Control – turns fog output on or off
  • Sweep Control – allows the fogging head to remain stationary or oscillate for wider coverage
Stainless steel version

Single-Valve Flow Control with Built-In Restrictor

The Hellcat uses a single-valve flow control system with an integrated restrictor, providing both minimum and maximum output from one control point. Even when the valve is fully closed, a preset minimum flow is maintained through the internal restrictor, allowing the unit to continue fogging while ensuring proper operation at all fogging angles, including upward positioning.

Opening the valve increases output up to approximately 13 GPH, allowing operators to adjust fogging volume to match application requirements..


Pivoting Fogging Head

  • Thumb screw adjustment for quick positioning
  • Adjustable from 7.5° to 30° upward angle
  • Allows operators to direct fog where it’s needed

The pivoting fogging head gives operators precise control over fog direction. By angling the discharge upward, the system increases hang time and improves evaporation, helping to keep floors and equipment dry while maximizing coverage.

 


Built-In 4-Sweep Mechanical Oscillator

The Hellcat includes a built-in mechanical oscillator that distributes fog across a wide area, improving coverage without requiring constant repositioning.

By adjusting the sweep angle, operators can focus fog where it’s needed most, increasing efficiency and reducing wasted output.

Key Features:

  • Adjustable sweep angles: 30°, 45°, 60°, and 75°
  • Consistent ~10-second sweep cycle
  • Tool-free adjustment in seconds

SST Plumbing Option

The (SST) version includes all stainless-steel plumbing components installed in place of standard brass fittings. This option is recommended when fogging highly corrosive chemicals or sanitation solutions.

  • Replaces standard brass fittings
  • 304 (18-8) stainless steel components
  • Complete plumbing system upgrade
  • Factory installed

How Jaybird Atomizes Water Without Nozzles

Jaybird fog systems use a patented centrifugal atomizing blade developed in 1986. Water enters a reservoir behind the fan blade and is forced through internal channels inside each blade. As the blade spins, centrifugal force drives water toward the blade tips where it exits through precision openings.


See comparisons of Jaybird atomizers in action (1:17 video)

At the blade tip, several processes occur simultaneously:

  • The rotating blade atomizes the water into fine droplets
  • A venturi accelerates airflow around the blade
  • A ring of atomizing pins further breaks droplets into fog
  • Particle size is variable and desired size can be controlled by the feed rate

This multi-stage atomization process allows Jaybird systems to produce large volumes of fog while using a simple, reliable design with no high-pressure pumps or clogging nozzles.

The result is powerful fog production, strong air propulsion, and long-term reliability.
