The Martin Professional JEM ZR45 is a high-performance water-based fog machine designed to meet the demanding needs of large venues and stages. Equipped with a powerful 2,000 W (EU) / 1,800 W (US) heat exchanger, this robust fog machine delivers an exceptional peak output, making it ideal for major performances, installations, and rental applications. Whether you're working in theater productions, concerts, or large-scale events, the JEM ZR45 ensures superior fog coverage and reliable, uninterrupted performance. Its rugged, roadworthy design allows it to withstand the rigors of touring and heavy usage while maintaining excellent performance standards.
The JEM ZR45 is capable of producing a fog output of 45,909 ft3 per minute, making it a highly effective solution for environments where significant coverage is required. The variable output control provides flexibility, allowing for precise control of fog intensity, from subtle haze effects to dense fog clouds. This level of control is essential for creating dramatic atmospheric effects or providing the ideal backdrop for lighting and laser shows. The fog machine also offers continuous effect output, allowing for extended operation during performances without the need for breaks. With its 5-liter fluid reservoir and quick-connect fitting, fluid management is simple, ensuring smooth, consistent operation throughout the event.
In terms of control, the JEM ZR45 is equipped with an integrated digital remote control and full DMX compatibility, including RDM. This allows for seamless integration into larger control systems and ensures ease of use in both small and large setups. The machine supports a master/client link mode, enabling the operation of multiple units for large-scale fog deployment. The fluid reservoir includes a fluid sensing system that ensures efficient fluid usage and prevents wastage, while the machine's advanced fluid management system ensures smooth operation and consistent fog output.
The JEM ZR45 is compatible with a wide range of JEM Pro-Fog fluids, including Quick Dissipating, Standard, and High-Density fluids, providing the flexibility to create various fog effects depending on the needs of the performance or installation. Whether you're creating a fast-dissipating fog for brief, dramatic moments or a long-lasting dense fog for scenic masking, the JEM ZR45 offers the versatility to achieve the perfect effect.
Built with durability in mind, the JEM ZR45 features a sturdy steel and aluminum housing, ensuring long-lasting reliability and performance in the most demanding environments. The unit is designed for both floor-standing and truss mounting installations, with an integrated hanging bracket and safety attachment point for secure mounting. It can be oriented up to +/-40° from horizontal, offering flexibility in positioning to meet the specific needs of any setup.
With a maximum operating time of 1.18 hours on a full 5-liter fluid reservoir at maximum output, the JEM ZR45 is designed to handle extended operation periods, making it suitable for large events and continuous fog effects. The unit's thermally protected heat exchanger operates at a maximum nozzle temperature of 554°F (290°C), ensuring safe and efficient performance. Additionally, the machine is built to operate in a wide range of temperatures, with a maximum ambient temperature of 104°F (40°C) and a minimum operating temperature of 41°F (5°C).
The JEM ZR45 is engineered for safety and reliability, with certifications including EU safety standards, UL, CSA, and UKCA approvals. This ensures the unit meets the highest international safety requirements for use in a variety of global markets. The JEM ZR45 is a true workhorse designed to deliver powerful and consistent fog effects for professional applications.
