SS 700-BT Fog Fan – Bench Top
Agricultural & Industrial
Humidification System

Manufactured in the USA by Jaybird Manufacturing

The Hydro SS 700-BT fogging system is our smallest and quietest atomizer, engineered for dependable humidification, evaporative cooling, and spot cooling in commercial, agricultural, and residential environments.

Unlike high-pressure misting systems that rely on nozzles and pumps, the SS 700-BT connects to an ordinary water supply and uses centrifugal atomization to produce tiny particles that evaporate quickly for efficient cooling and humidity control.

The Bench Top configuration requires no drainage line because its integrated sump tank recycles waste water. The unit is regulated by a quarter-turn ball valve and can be operated continuously or automated using a secondary controller.

Industrial Humidification & Cooling Applications

The Hydro SS 700-BT is designed for compact, reliable humidification and cooling where quiet operation, simple installation, and consistent fog production are important. Its bench top sump design makes it ideal for drain-free installations using a standard pressurized water supply.

Compact size and balanced design allow for easy
handling and flexible installation options

Typical applications include:

  • Agriculture and greenhouse humidity control
  • Food packing and processing areas
  • Environmental humidity control systems
  • Commercial and residential evaporative cooling
  • Spot cooling for indoor and outdoor work areas

The SS 700-BT delivers fine fog production without the complexity of high-pressure nozzles, making it a practical solution for users who need dependable performance in a compact, recirculating atomizer system.

Features & Controls

SS 700-HS units include an internal feed pump, a manual 1/4-turn flow control valve, an illuminated On/Off power switch, and an internal float valve to maintain proper tank water level during operation.

  • Large tank access lid
  • 1/4-turn flow control valve
  • Recirculation tank
  • Indoor/Outdoor rated (IP55)
  • Illuminated push-button switch
  • Garden hose connection

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.


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.
