Portastar by FONTAN®

The Application: The Advantages: Working Principles:
Fontan®Portastar, our motoized knapsack ULV aerosol generator for the efficient cmbatting of insects vermin pest and vectors.

Control of disease transmitting insects e.g mosquitos, in urban and rural areas

Pest control for health and hygeine in public, private and commercial areas e.g dwellings, public buildings, hotels, hospitals and in animal keeping

Stock protection inside and in the surroundings of store rooms, silos and production plants e.g food, agricultural products and textiles

Plant protection in tropical and sub tropical plantations and in greenhouses
The Fontan®Portastar produces an aerosol fog of highest efficiency and penetration. Contary to conventional mist blowers, with or without ULV attachment, and working with blowers with extremely high air throughput, the rotary pump of the Portastar produces 35m³ of air only. This has the advantage that the cloud of aerosol droplets remains concentarted and is not dispersed or scattered too rapidly and ineffectively by high air volume.
Moreover the ULV method ensures an economic consumption of chemical preparations. A minimum quantity processed into homogenous droplet spectrum of approx. 2-20µm guarantees an optimal distribution and coverage without dripping losses.
FONTAN®-a synonym for efficient economic and professional ULV spraying.
The ULV cold fogging machine FONTAN® Portastar is driven by a robust 2-stroke engine. An oil and maintenance free low pressure rotary pump produces an air stream of high velocity being accelerated into the swirl vane of the nozzle system. This air stream causes suction in the solution pipe and conveys the chemical solution which is atomized into the finest aerosol droplets at the nozzle system.
The application is carried out with a handy spraying pistol having an on/off trigger for permanent and interval fogging.
The FONTAN®Portastar is specially designed for the dispersion of ULV formulations and/or highly concentrated chemical preperations.
The output quantities between 1 and 6 ltr/hr meet the various scopes of the ULV method.

The Technique:
Fontan® Portastar is a genuine knapsack ULV aerosol generator. The machine has a light and compact construction and an excellent performance to weight ratio.

The backrest protects the operator from direct contact with the back plate of the machine-thus transmission of heat and vibrations from the engine and the rotary pump is next to impossible. The carrying straps are adjustable.
The supply tanks and fuel tank are made of corrosion and UV light resistant Polyethyene. The solution tank has a large filling diameter with a fine filter. The oil and maintenance free low pressure rotary pump and the air filter with large surface area provide reliable continuous operation. The spraying pistol for permanent and interval fogging is ergonomically formed and easy to handle.
