The TOPGUN snowgun is designed specifically to be used
in environments of variable temperatures where different water rates are
necessary to maximize snow production. The TOPGUN snowgun achieves this
in the easiest manner and at the lowest cost.
The TOPGUN snowgun is designed to be easily moved, changed,
and fine tuned for those who operate the equipment in the middle of the
night. TOPGUN was also designed to be a cost effective solution for those
who pay the bills. TOPGUN generates lower operating and capital costs
while increasing revenue and margins. This is the TOPGUN cornerstone.
The TOPGUN has several features to simplify operation
and maximize efficient production. Some of those features include:
Nine-Water Settings
The patented TOPGUN
9-Stage Valve allows you to change the flow rate (higher or lower)
to maximize snow production when the temperature changes. You can be
assured of putting snow on the trail instead of the trees.
Ground Operated Control
There is never a need to lower the snowgun to change
water settings or flow rates. Simply turn the handle at the bottom of
the snowgun to increase or decrease flow rates for all five settings.
Self-Draining Stages
Never worry about freezing the TOPGUN Valve. Every stage
of the TOPGUN Valve includes a self-draining check valve to guarantee
drainage of all water from each stage after operation to eliminate freezing.
Directional Discharge Head
With TOPGUN's exclusive Nucleation Nozzle technology
and directional discharge head design, place your snow where you want
it requiring less grooming.
Nucleation Nozzle
By utilizing the exclusive and patent-pending Nucleation
Nozzle, the TOPGUN snowgun is more flexible than ever. With standard
rates of 100 cfm/20 gpm, the TOPGUN is ideal for warm weather conditions
on the snowgun's first-stage setting. If your particular situation is
different, the center Nucleation Nozzle on the TOPGUN can easily be
changed to maximize your snow production on the first water setting
of the TOPGUN. Once done, simply turn the handle to add more water to
the central Nucleation Nozzle stream for flows greater than 100 gpm.
Low-Air Usage
Use less air (15, 45 or 75 cfm) than with traditional
air/water guns while maintaining comparable performance.
Modular Design
Every TOPGUN Snowmaking System product is designed and
built with a modular concept allowing you to add or remove capabilities
or exchange parts easily among towers. With this system you can upgrade
a single-stage tower to TOPGUN 9-stage capabilities in less than 30
minutes.
High-Pressure O-ring Seals
The O-ring seals eliminate the common problem of paper
or rubber gasket blowout. The TOPGUN high-pressure O-ring is rated to
1000 psi, ensuring that you never have to worry about a blowout occurring.
Highest Quality Construction
The TOPGUN is designed, engineered, and constructed
for heavy use and long operation times in mind. Our entire line of snowguns
are manufactured to withstand pressures of up to 1000 psi and are manufactured
using the latest in construction methods providing you with maintenance
free operation.
