The Aquafog XE HRSM-2000-EXP is a mobile fogging system built around Jaybird’s high-output XE centrifugal atomizer and an explosion-proof (hazardous-duty) motor for use in classified or explosion-prone environments. Designed for industrial humidification, evaporative cooling, dust suppression, and chemical fogging, the HRSM-EXP delivers portable high-volume fog production in facilities where standard equipment is not permitted.
Unlike high-pressure nozzle systems or spinning disc foggers, the HRSM-EXP uses Jaybird’s nozzle-free centrifugal atomization technology, producing extremely fine fog while eliminating clogged nozzles and high-pressure pumps.
The HRSM-EXP includes an 18-gallon integrated supply tank, rugged wheeled chassis, and 4-position pivoting fogging head. Water flow is regulated by a quarter-turn ball valve and the system can be operated continuously or automated using a secondary hazardous-duty controller (where applicable).

The Jaybird XE HRSM-2000-EXP is engineered for facilities requiring explosion-proof humidification and evaporative cooling in classified or hazardous environments where volatile vapors, combustible dust, or other ignition risks may be present. Using Jaybird’s nozzle-free centrifugal atomizer technology, the HRSM-EXP produces ultra-fine fog and strong air propulsion while avoiding the nozzle clogging and high-pressure maintenance associated with typical misting systems.
Typical applications include:
When explosion-proof equipment is required, the HRSM-EXP provides a rugged, self-contained mobile platform with industrial-scale fog output for demanding environments.

HRSM-EXP units include an internal feed pump, a manual 1/4-turn flow control valve, and an internal float valve to maintain proper tank water level during operation. Controls are simplified to meet explosion-proof requirements, with no integrated On/Off switch.
The manual ball valve allows operators to adjust fogging output based on the application. Lower feed rates generally produce a drier, finer fog, while higher feed rates increase output volume for broader coverage.
| Valve Position | Typical Use | Fog Character |
|---|---|---|
| Full Open | Evaporative cooling, greenhouse cooling, concrete curing, mushroom growing | Highest output / heavier fog |
| Mid Open | General humidification, horticulture, wine barrel storage, wood/lumber/paper applications | Balanced output / general-purpose fogging |
| Slightly Open | Textile humidification, dust suppression, static control, lighter treatment applications | Drier / finer fog |
Control Tip: Start with a lower valve setting and increase flow only as needed. This helps maintain finer fog quality and reduces excess wetting.

A specially engineered drainage port at the base of the motor allows condensation to escape, helping prevent internal moisture buildup while preserving the motor’s explosion-proof integrity.

Optional flexible cord packages are available for installations requiring mobility or non-rigid connections.
