7、e There are several technologies used for the production of fog effects today, with each technology creating a specific type of effect. For every technology there are several manufacturers designing fog-making systems that are unique in and of themselves. In order to facilitate the safe and effectiv

8、e use of fog, the user must have some general knowledge of the technology, have a clear understanding of how to operate the fog making system, and be aware of the potential hazards related to the use of fog, and particularly the system that he is using. This standard is designed to establish guideli

9、nes for manufacturers to provide to the user by way of an instruction manual the necessary information required for the safe and responsible use of their fog equipment. This standard sets minimum requirements and does not limit the amount of additional information that a manufacturer can include in

10、the manual. It is encouraged that the manual developed in accordance with this standard be part of a comprehensive product stewardship program. 3 Inclusions3.1 IntroductionThe introduction shall include a brief explanation of the technology used in the fog making system and shall describe the type o

11、f fog that will be created through the proper use of the machine. 3.1.1 An explanation of how this particular fog making system works shall be given, stressing that it is a fog system designed to work within certain parameters. 3.1.2 A list of the fluids and/or gases that are recommended by the equi

12、pment manufacturer for use in this particular fog equipment shall be included. 3.2 WarningsWarnings and safeguards shall be listed in order to reduce the potential dangers associated with working with, or around, the fog equipment.
