ADJ Entour Pileus – Professional High-Output Fog & Faze Machine with Flight Case
Buy the ADJ Entour Pileus, a high-output 1650W hybrid fog and faze machine built inside a heavy-duty road case chassis. Features 60,000 CFM output, dual 5.6-litre fluid tanks, automated self-cleaning cycle, and 5-pin DMX control. In stock, fast UK delivery.
The ADJ Entour Pileus is a tour-grade, high-output atmospheric effect generator engineered for large-scale stage productions, festival arenas, theaters, concert venues, and production rental houses. Powered by a high-efficiency 1,650W heating core, the Entour Pileus operates as a versatile hybrid system capable of firing massive, dense fog plumes at up to 60,000 cubic feet per minute (CFM) or producing an evenly dispersed, long-lasting faze haze to enhance lighting and laser beams. Built directly inside a road-ready flight case with heavy-duty locking castors and stacking cups, the fixture features dual 5.6-litre fluid tanks (11.2L total capacity), independent fan and fog output speed adjustments (5%–100%), an automated 30-second self-cleaning cycle, Over Voltage Protection (OVP), and comprehensive 5-pin DMX control.
Staff Take: The Expert Verdict
The single strongest selling point of the ADJ Entour Pileus is its tour-ready hybrid performance housed inside a flight case. The standout feature is its ability to transition between dense, high-volume fog bursts and fine, evenly distributed faze mist, removing the need to carry separate foggers and hazers to a show. With dual 5.6-litre tanks and an automated self-cleaning cycle, we highly recommend this machine for production companies, festival staging crews, and large venues that require maximum atmospheric output and long-term reliability on the road.
Why Choose the ADJ Entour Pileus Fog & Faze Machine?
-
Massive 60,000 CFM atmospheric output: Fills large arenas, festival stages, and theaters with dense fog clouds or atmospheric faze haze.
-
Dual 5.6L fluid tank system: Houses two independent 5.6-litre tanks (11.2L total capacity) to run long-duration production shows without frequent fluid refills.
-
Flight case chassis with locking castors: Encased inside a tour-grade road case featuring heavy-duty recessed handles, locking wheels, and top stacking cups for easy truck loading.
-
Automated 30-second self-cleaning cycle: Purges fluid lines automatically after operation to prevent clogs and extend heating element lifespan.
-
Independent fog & fan control (5%–100%): Fine-tune output volume and fan dispersion speed independently from the onboard menu or over DMX.
-
Flexible 5-pin DMX & timer control: Supports 1, 2, and 4-channel DMX profiles, onboard timer controls, an LCD display, and a 4-pin XLR remote input.
-
Over Voltage Protection (OVP): Built-in circuit safeguard protects sensitive internal electronics against voltage spikes on stage power drops.
Who is the ADJ Entour Pileus best suited for?
The ADJ Entour Pileus is designed first and foremost for touring production companies, festival stage managers, theater technicians, and venue integrators who manage large-scale events. Its dual-function fog and faze capabilities allow technicians to switch between dramatic visual blasts during artist intros and a subtle atmospheric haze during live musical sets.
For secondary applications, this flight-cased machine is an ideal investment for event equipment hire houses and large houses of worship. The integrated road case design protects internal pumps and heaters during transport, while the automated self-cleaning cycle ensures reliable operation across multiple rental hires.
ADJ Entour Pileus vs Standard Atmospheric Machines — What's Changed?
The primary advantage of stepping up to the ADJ Entour Pileus over standard standalone foggers or standalone hazers is the complete combination of high-volume output, dual-tank capacity, and built-in flight case protection. Standard fog machines lack adjustable fans and fluid line purges, while conventional hazers cannot deliver sudden high-density bursts. The Entour Pileus bridges this gap, giving operators full control over both fog volume and fan speed in a single unit.
Secondary enhancements focus on maintenance and power protection. The inclusion of an automated 30-second self-cleaning purge cycle prevents fluid crystallization inside the heater block, while Over Voltage Protection (OVP) safeguards internal circuit boards against unstable venue power supplies.
How to Set Up the ADJ Entour Pileus
-
Wheel the flight case into position on a flat, level surface and lock the heavy-duty castors.
-
Remove the top lid to access the fluid compartment and control display.
-
Fill one or both 5.6-litre fluid tanks with approved ADJ water-based fog juice (e.g., ADJ Fog Juice 2 Medium).
-
Connect a locking mains power cable to the power input socket and turn on the main power switch.
-
Connect a 5-pin XLR DMX cable to the DMX IN port for lighting desk control, or use the onboard LCD menu to set timer functions.
-
Allow approximately 16.5 minutes for the 1,650W heater block to reach operating temperature.
-
Set your desired fog output level (5%–100%) and fan speed (5%–100%) on your DMX console or onboard display to launch the effect.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the Entour Pileus produce both thick fog and thin haze?
Yes. By adjusting the fog output volume and fan speed independently, you can create dense, heavy fog plumes for dramatic drops or dial up the fan speed with low fog output to generate a fine, evenly dispersed faze haze.
What fluid should I use in the ADJ Entour Pileus?
We recommend using official ADJ water-based fog fluids, such as ADJ Fog Juice 2 Medium or Fog Juice 3 Heavy, to ensure clean vaporization, optimum hang time, and clog-free operation.
How does the self-cleaning system work?
When activated, the machine runs an automated 30-second cleaning cycle that purges residual fluid from internal heater lines. This prevents fluid build-up and keeps the heating element clear between shows.
Is the flight case detachable from the machine?
No. The machine is permanently built into the lower flight case housing for maximum structural strength, protection, and rapid deployment during load-ins.
