Description
The PLG 1000 is a cold atomizer intended for use in air-conditioned rooms. If the room is unable to be air-conditioned, then a heatable version of the device should be used, e.g. PLG 2000 H.

Startup
The liquid to be dispersed is filled in the reservoir. The nozzle system developed by Palas® is immersed in the liquid. This nozzle system is based on the Laskin principle and guarantees extremely precise dosing constancy with uniform particle size. The mass flow is adjusted using the volume flow through the nozzle. The volume flow is controlled by a pressure regulator and a manometer on the device.
