The Artem Gun is a unique, off power smoke generator ideal for creating large volumes of smoke for applications such as fire training, public order training, indeed any application where complete portability is a requirement.

Using conventional Taymar type gas cartridges as the heating source (available worldwide) and a Concept Artem Smoke Canister, the Artem Gun is incredibly straight forward to use. Simply screw in the canisters, pre-heat the stainless steel coil for a few seconds, and turn on the smoke. It's that easy.

With an output that puts pyrotechnic smoke bombs to shame, complete controllability, and low running costs, the Artem Gun is the ideal solution for external smoke.

Principle of Operation

Concept Smoke Oil stored in disposable, ozone friendly Concept Artem Smoke Canisters, is forced under pressure from an inert propellant into a heat exchanger, where it is vaporised using heat applied by a high efficiency burner. The burner draws gas from standard propane/butane cartridges such as the Taymar 3500. The vapour produced condenses on reaching normal atmosphere and a dense, non toxic white smoke is produced.

Artem Gun Safety

The Concept Artem gun can come complete with a pre-fitted safety barrel guard, which prevents the user coming into direct contact with the hot barrel. The barrel guard can also be supplied separately.

Please note that the propane gas aerosols cannot be sent anywhere outside UK mainland. They are readily available world wide.

We recommend the Artem Gun for outdoor use only.

Testimonials

East Sussex County Council

"I was very impressed with the smoke generators provided by Concept Engineering and feel they could be confidently recommended at our group meetings to other tunnel operators who may be contemplating an emergency exercise.

The reaction of the tunnel environmental control system visibility sensors to the smoke was excellent, not only did the fans cut in but the volume of smoke was such that it immediately tripped a high level alarm which additionally sends a signal in the form of a general alarm to the Sussex Police Headquarters. Had the smoke been generated by a real incident the alarm would have alerted the Police to the problem in the tunnel probably before a call was made from a tunnel emergency phone."
