Fog Cannon Dust Suppression Systems | Industrial Direct Qatar

Fog & Mist Cannons for Dust Suppression in Qatar
SFLO is a leading supplier and integrator of fog cannons and mist cannons for dust suppression in Qatar, delivering powerful, mobile, and low‑maintenance solutions for controlling airborne dust in harsh industrial environments.Our dust suppression cannons are engineered to provide long‑range coverage (20–110 meters) with minimal water usage, making them ideal for mines, quarries, construction sites, demolition zones, haul roads, and bulk material handling areas.

The Hazards of Uncontrolled Dust

Unmanaged dust at industrial and construction sites poses serious risks to people, equipment, and the environment:

Poor Air Quality – PM10 and PM2.5 particles remain airborne, affecting air clarity and respiratory health
Health Risks – Prolonged exposure can lead to silicosis, asthma, and chronic lung diseases
Safety Hazards – Reduced visibility compromises operator safety and increases the risk of accidents
Equipment Damage – Dust buildup accelerates wear and tear, leading to higher maintenance costs
Environmental Fines – Non-compliance with Qatar’s MOECC dust control regulations can lead to penalties

Fog cannons offer one of the most effective solutions for controlling airborne dust in large, open, or mobile environments where traditional systems fall short.

Benefits of Fog Cannon Dust Suppression

Up to 99% reduction of PM10 & PM2.5 dust

Very low water consumption compared to sprinklers

Covers large open areas with a single unit

No infrastructure‑heavy installation required

Portable, flexible, and fast to deplo

Improves worker safety and environmental compliance

How Fog Cannons Work

Fog cannons suppress dust using a high‑velocity air and water atomization process:

High‑pressure water passes through specialized fog nozzles

Water is atomized into fine mist droplets

A powerful axial fan propels the fog into the air

Dust particles collide with mist droplets

Increased particle weight causes dust to settle quickly

Frequently Asked Questions – Fog Cannons

1. How do fog cannons work for dust suppression?

Fog cannons atomize high-pressure water into fine droplets that bind with airborne dust particles, causing them to fall to the ground and preventing dust from spreading.

2. What is the throw range of Industrial Direct fog cannons?

Our fog cannons offer a throw range from 20 to 110 meters, depending on the model and site conditions.

3. Are mist cannons mobile or fixed?

Both options are available. We offer fixed base, wheel-mounted, trailer-mounted, and truck-mounted fog cannon systems.

4. Can fog cannons be automated?

Yes. Our systems can be controlled via remote, PLC, timers, or weather sensors for automated spraying based on dust levels or site activity.

5. How much water do fog cannons consume?

Water consumption ranges from 12 to 30 liters per minute, depending on the cannon size and spray duration.

6. Do fog cannons wet the ground or material?

No. They use ultra-fine droplets (<2% moisture addition), making them ideal for dust suppression without soaking the area.

7. Are fog cannons suitable for Qatar’s climate?

Absolutely. Industrial Direct supplies rugged, weather-resistant systems designed to withstand high heat, wind, and dusty environments.

8. What industries use fog cannons in Qatar?

Our systems are used across construction, mining, quarries, cement plants, waste yards, and industrial loading zones.

9. Do you provide installation and service in Qatar?

Yes. We offer full installation, operator training, spare parts, and maintenance services across Doha, Mesaieed, Ras Laffan, Al Khor, and beyond.

10. Can fog cannons be customized?

Yes. We tailor throw distance, mounting type, automation features, and water flow to meet your site-specific needs.
