- Handheld rain-nozzles, rain towers on tripods, and overhang rigs mounted on lifts or cranes.
- All types of tools for handling and distributing water to rain nozzles – hoses, couplings, manifolds and reservoirs.
- All types of draining pumps and high pressure pump systems.
- Complete studio solutions. Rain on windows or from studio ceiling including. diversion of water, and collection of water.
- Water barriers.
- Complete wetdown solutions.
SNOW, FROST AND ICE
We are capable of delivering any types of artificial snow and frost effects
- Remote controlled paper snow machine for distributing large amounts of cellulose paper snow or frost powder.
- High pressure system for wet-spray
- Foam generators for floating snow flakes
- We also supply everything in between, and most importantly – we have the tools and equipment needed for cleaning up, after snow effects.
WIND
Whether there is a need for wind to send particles out-on-set, or to break up smoke, or just regular old wind, we have most.
- Leafblowers (230V)
- Carpetdryers (230V)
- Jet Fans on low base stands with speed controllers (230V)
- 12HP wind machins (gasoline driven)
FOG / HAZE / MIST / SMOKE
All types of machines for smoke effects and distributing of smoke.
- Interior smoke generators for small tricky spots – Viper (12V)
- Interior smoke generators – Viper (230V)
- Interior hazers – Unique (230V)
- Exterior smoke generators – ARTEM and Medium (Propane gas)
- Lowflat systems / Smoke Tube – distribution of smoke via plastic tubes to large areas.
Our medium smoke generators can be mounted on ATV’s if a flexible and mobile solution is needed.
FIRE
Spectre Effects have all equipment needed to safely produce fire effects. We design and manufacture our own flame bars with custom dimensions.
- Gas hoses, regulators and gas bottles
- All types of flame bars – fishtails, firepans, flameforks and X-burners
- Custom flamebars, burn drums, campfire setups
- Propane mortars for controlled gas explosions
- Custom and non-custom torches
- Firefighting equipment
PYROTECHNICS AND EXPLOSIONS
All tools for working with pyrotechnics and explosives work, including equipment for flexible and precise ignition and detonation of low and high-speed explosives.
- Steel mortars – V-Pans, Flat-pans, straight, shotgun, and flashpots
- Gas poppers
- Switch boxes with multi cables and split boxes
- Sequencers – automatic and with programmable firing
- Nailboards – simple and reliable way of firing pyrotechnics – this is surprisingly still being used by the best special effects people over the world for its precise nature.
- Power supplies with built- in firing channels.
- Remote controlled firing systems – for pyro and squib work
- Sensor controlled firing systems – cue activated by actors, stuntmen, cars or equipment.
AIR CANNONS
Many different sizes in our warehouse. All our mortars are activated with 24VDC and are filled with compressors or nitrogen bottles.
- 1l air cannon with ½” nozzle
- 25l air cannon with 1½” nozzle
- 150l air cannon with 3” nozzle
- Cones – V and Straight in all sizes.
CAPSULE GUN
A very simple and effective way of making bullet impact and ricochet effects is with the help of a so-called capsule gun. If working in large sets and wide shots, it is a cheap solution that has fast reset times between takes.
The gun is loaded with cal. 0.68 capsules which contain dust of different colors, or other materials, to simulate impacts on the ground, objects or walls, The capsules can also be filled with zirconium if there is a need for sparks on metal, cars or concrete walls.
CUSTOM EQUIPMENT
We have many custom solutions in stock, which are solely developed for the purposes of special effects work on movies and television
- Blood rigs
- Custom pressure cylinders for fluids (blood etc)
- Low frequency speakers for impulse effects.
