Martin JEM ZR35 1500W Mid-Sized Professional Fog Machine
Description
Martin JEM ZR35 1500W Mid-Sized Professional Fog Machine
The JEM ZR35 is a compact, lightweight fog machine built for studio and production environments where atmospheric texture and visual continuity matter. Its efficient footprint—590 mm (23.3 in.) long by 395 mm (15.6 in.) wide—fits seamlessly into green-screen setups, video production stages, and performance recording spaces, while the 15.1 kg dry weight makes repositioning between takes and session setups straightforward without sacrificing output capability.
Performance & Output for Production
The 1500 W heat exchanger generates 800 m³ of fog coverage per minute with fluid consumption of 140 ml per minute, reaching peak output of 50 ml in 30 seconds for rapid atmosphere builds. Warm-up time of 8–9 minutes fits standard session prep windows, and variable output control (0–100%) lets you dial in everything from full-coverage environmental haze to subtle layered depth in post-production video work.
Control & Integration into Session Workflows
The machine integrates digital remote control alongside full DMX and RDM capability, allowing synchronization with lighting rigs during multi-camera shoots and recorded performance captures. Continuous or timer-controlled output modes adapt to live recording sessions, overdub blocks, and synchronized visual capture across multiple takes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the warm-up time and deployment timeline?
The JEM ZR35 reaches full operational temperature in 8–9 minutes, enabling rapid setup for fast-turnaround shows and events. Peak output is achieved at 50 ml of fluid in 30 seconds once warmed up.
How does DMX and RDM control work with this machine?
The machine includes integrated DMX and RDM capability, allowing it to be networked into lighting consoles and show-control systems for automated cueing, intensity ramping, and real-time parameter adjustment across complex productions.
What mounting options and weight specifications should I know?
The JEM ZR35 weighs 15.1 kg dry (19.1 kg filled) and measures 590 × 395 × 264 mm, with a floor-standing base and truss-mount bracket included. Its compact, weight-optimized design is practical for both portable and fixed installations.
What fluid consumption and tank capacity should I plan for?
The machine consumes 140 ml per minute at full output and holds 4 liters internally (compatible with 5-liter bottles). Calculate runtime based on your venue size and effect intensity—variable 0–100% output control allows you to reduce consumption for subtle effects.
What power specifications apply to my region?
EU models run 220–240 V AC, 50/60 Hz at 6.8 A; US models run 100–130 V AC, 50/60 Hz at 12.1 A. Both feature PowerCON TRUE1 connectivity for professional touring and installed power infrastructure.
