MDG Max 5000 - 1415W Oil-Based Fog Machine with Built-in Remote and DMX in Black Finish

The MDG Max 5000 is a high-performance 1415W oil-based fog machine meticulously engineered for professional use, offering remarkable reliability and safety in fog production. This unit is capable of generating pure white, non-toxic fog continuously, supporting a 100% duty cycle, which allows for sustained fog output for as long as fluid is available. Designed with advanced features, the Max 5000 includes the Automatic Purging System (APS), which automatically purges the heating modules after the first heating cycle and after each fog emission. This critical function helps to prevent any residual buildup and clogging, ensuring that the machine operates at peak performance over time.

The MDG Max 5000 is a variable output fog generator, capable of producing large volumes of dense fog in a short amount of time, making it ideal for theatrical productions, concerts, and special events. With a maximum fog output of up to 218 m3 (7,698 ft3) per minute, this machine can quickly fill large spaces, providing exceptional atmospheric effects. Known for its virtually noiseless operation, the Max 5000 ensures minimal disturbance, which is especially beneficial in settings where sound control is essential. The fog produced is designed to enhance visibility for laser and light displays, creating stunning visual effects that captivate audiences.

At the heart of the MDG Max 5000 is a sophisticated electronic assembly that maintains a stable temperature within the heating module. This system incorporates three fail-safe mechanisms designed to protect against overheating, underheating, and component failure. If the internal temperature reaches 60°C (140°F), a safety circuit is triggered, disconnecting power from the heating elements to prevent hazardous conditions. Should an underheating condition occur, fog production will automatically halt until the temperature returns to safe levels. A fourth safety feature includes a pressure relief valve that protects against over-pressurization, ensuring safe and reliable operation.

The Max 5000 includes a user-friendly 4-button LCD interface that offers easy access to control settings and diagnostic information. It supports three standard USITT DMX512 channels and is equipped with XLR-5 connectors for RDM compliance, allowing seamless integration into existing control systems. The detachable remote control, which comes with an 8 m (26 ft) cable, allows for convenient operation from a distance. The machine also features manually adjustable fog output, enabling operators to customize the fog production to suit their specific needs. With a warm-up time of just 8 minutes, the Max 5000 is quick to deploy, ensuring efficient setup for live performances.

In terms of fluid consumption, the MDG Max 5000 is efficient, utilizing 2.6 L (77 oz) of fluid per hour at maximum output (2.76 bar / 40 psi). The unit has a reservoir capacity of 2.5 L (0.66 US gallon), which supports extended operation between refills. The fog produced has a particle size of 0.5 to 0.7 microns, providing excellent hanging times and visual clarity. The machine operates on a voltage range of 115 or 230 VAC, 50/60 Hz single phase, making it adaptable to various power systems. With dimensions of 24 inches in length, 11 inches in width, and 12 inches in height, the unit weighs 56 lbs, and the shipping weight with its flight case is 85 lbs. The MDG Max 5000 is CE Declaration approved and SPE1000 certified, ensuring compliance with international safety standards. Overall, the MDG Max 5000 is an exceptional choice for professionals seeking a reliable, high-performing fog generator that excels in delivering stunning atmospheric effects in any environment.
