In this article, we’re going to focus on haze – breaking it up between water-based and oil-based because they are the 2 most common types of hazers out there. Haze is designed to create a thin layer of atmosphere over the entire room which you are performing in. However, you don’t get there in 5 minutes!

2023年5月9日 · Oil hazers produce haze by pushing a mineral oil fluid through a compressor and out of the unit. The compressor doesn’t have to heat up, it is ready to go from the instant you turn it on. The oil also hangs in the air much better – nearly forever in a motionless room!

Haze machines, or haze generators (commonly referred to as hazers), are effects machines similar to fog machines, designed to produce an unobtrusive, homogeneous clouds suspended in the air intended primarily to make light beams visible or create a subtle diffusion.

Oil-based hazers generally come with a higher price tag. Some even require CO2 to operate, adding to the expenses and complexity. On the flip side, water-based hazers offer a more affordable option, require less maintenance, and can be a budget-friendly choice for your production needs.

2024年6月21日 · Two main types of haze machines are commonly used: oil-based and water-based hazers. Let's explore their differences, starting with the texture and consistency they provide. Oil-based haze machines deliver a more uniform texture, achieving the desired atmospheric effect effectively.

2023年12月13日 · Water-based hazers, commonly used in live productions, operate by heating and spraying a water-based fluid that produces larger particles, dissipating quickly into the air. Oil-based hazers, preferred by professionals in music tours and special events, employ mineral oil fluid and a compressor to generate uniform, long-lasting haze.

2009年1月29日 · The only oil based machine accepted on Broadway and in the major touring circles is the DF-50, it is a real cracked oil machine. The Radiance creates the same atmospheric effect. While it is water based, there is actually very very little water in the fluid it …

The 800W Therma Tour 800 creates a safe, clean, and odorless haze effect that leaves no residue. The perfect small-particle haze for highlighting light beams, the unit holds two liters of fluid for over 35 hours of runtime with no warmup time required.

Oil-based haze is much more persistent than conventional water or glycol based haze, and is arguably safer and less toxic than water based haze when you consider approx. 90% less fluid is used to create the same effect).
