Spraying, misting & dust suppression
Dust suppression fog cannons in Mumbai and across India
Industrisol manufactures and supplies dust suppression fog cannons for Mumbai, Thane and sites across India. Our water-based mist cannons throw a fine atomized fog over large open areas to capture airborne dust at mines, construction and demolition sites, recycling plants and stockyards.
- Models with projection from about 20 m to 100 m
- 360-degree rotation with manual, automatic or remote control
- Standalone, wheeled, trailer and truck-mounted versions
- Customised to site layout and water supply

How a dust suppression fog cannon works
A fog cannon combines a high-volume fan (turbine) with a ring of fine atomizing nozzles. Water is pressurised by a transfer pump and atomized at the nozzle ring; the fan then carries the fine droplets a long distance. The droplets collide with airborne dust particles, bind to them and bring them down before they spread across the site.
Because the droplets are very fine and similar in size to the dust, they capture fine particles that a hose or sprinkler would miss, while adding very little water to the material. The projection of the inner nozzle head can be limited to close range by switching off the turbine, giving one machine both long-throw and close-range duty.
Our dust suppression fog cannons are built around a compact chassis carrying the transfer pump, oscillation system, solenoid valve, filter and a pressure switch that protects these components.
Fog cannon models
We offer several water-based dust suppression cannon models. Range, flow and mounting are selected to suit the area you need to cover.
DSC-030 mobile dust suppression cannon
Mobile cannon for construction and demolition sites where the dust source moves.
| Model | DSC-030 |
|---|---|
| Mounting | Mobile |
DSC-080 dust control cannon
Longer-throw cannon for stockpiles, open yards and larger material handling areas.
| Model | DSC-080 |
|---|---|
| Use | Large open areas |
Truck-mounted dust suppression fog cannon
Cannon and water tank mounted on a truck for haul roads, mines and multi-location sites.
| Mounting | Truck with tank |

Dust suppression fog cannon
Standalone fog cannon for fixed dust points such as crushers, loading bays and storage depots.
| Mounting | Standalone |
|---|
Configuration options
Fog cannons can be configured to the way your site works.
Manual swivel
Standalone cannon with manual rotation for fixed dust points.
Automatic swivel
Oscillates automatically to cover a wider arc without an operator.
Remote tilt and turn
Operator controls tilt and rotation remotely to follow the dust source.
Wheeled standalone cannon
Moves easily around the site on its own wheels.
Cannon with tank or on a trailer
Self-contained unit for sites without a fixed water line.
Truck-mounted system
Tank and cannon on a truck for haul roads and large mines.
Where fog cannons are used
| Site | Typical dust source | Common setup |
|---|---|---|
| Opencast mines | Blasting, haul roads, loading | Truck-mounted or long-throw static cannon |
| Construction and demolition | Breaking, excavation, debris handling | Mobile or wheeled cannon |
| Recycling plants and landfills | Shredding, tipping, sorting | Static cannon with automatic swivel |
| Storage depots and stockyards | Wind-blown dust from stockpiles | Long-throw cannon with oscillation |
| Loading systems | Transfer points, wagon and truck loading | Static cannon close to the source |
| Woodworking and bulk handling | Fine dust from cutting and handling | Close-range setup |
Advantages of fog cannons for dust control
- Captures fine dust, including PM10 and PM2.5, which matters for workers, neighbours and pollution control compliance.
- Adds very little moisture to the material, so products and stockpiles are not soaked.
- Low installation cost: no major plant modification is needed.
- Modular: more cannons can be added as the site grows.
- Flexible mounting on a range of trucks and trailers to suit the customer.
- Customisable to unique operating needs, from controls to tank size.
For enclosed points such as conveyor transfers, a fixed dust suppression misting system can work alongside cannons.

Related dust control solutions
What is a dust suppression fog cannon?
It is a machine that uses a powerful fan and a ring of atomizing nozzles to project a fine water fog over a wide area. The tiny droplets bind with airborne dust and bring it down. Fog cannons are used at mines, construction and demolition sites, recycling plants and stockyards.
How far can a fog cannon throw mist?
Projection depends on the model and fan size. Our range covers models from about 20 m to around 100 m throw. Wind direction and speed also affect real-world coverage, so we size the cannon with some margin for site conditions.
Does a fog cannon make the ground or material wet?
Very little. Because the droplets are fine, a fog cannon uses far less water than hoses or sprinklers and adds only a small amount of moisture to the material. This is useful where products such as coal, cement or aggregates must stay relatively dry.
Can a fog cannon be mounted on a truck?
Yes. Cannons can be mounted on a truck or a customised trailer together with a water tank. This suits haul roads, large mines and contractors who need to move dust control between locations.
What water quality does a fog cannon need?
Clean water without heavy suspended solids is best, as the atomizing nozzles have small orifices. The cannon includes a filter, but very dirty or recycled water may need pre-filtration. Tell us your water source and we will advise.
Is a fog cannon better than a fixed misting system?
They suit different jobs. Fog cannons cover large open areas and moving dust sources. Fixed misting systems work best at enclosed or fixed points such as conveyor transfers, hoppers and crushers. Many sites use both.
