Designed as a capable standalone setup for smaller enclosures or as a customisable base for larger builds, it runs on a robust 24V DC pump paired with a digital seconds timer — giving you precise, repeatable misting cycles from day one. It ships ready to use with one nozzle and can be expanded to run up to ten.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the kit\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e24V DC misting pump — capable of running up to 10 nozzles, custom manufactured and adapted for 1\/4\" tubing; includes vibration-dampening rubber feet and can run dry without damage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePump power adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Value L misting assembly with a super low-flow, check-valved spray tip producing an average droplet size of approximately 50 microns; check valve significantly reduces post-mist drip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNozzle assembly can be adjusted and pointed in any direction, and fastens securely to surfaces up to 5\/8\" (1.5 cm) thick\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReservoir bulkhead with O-ring and plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e15 feet of 1\/4\" black opaque tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDigital Seconds Timer ST-24 with instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5 tubing clips with screws\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReference manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe pump\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 24V DC pump at the heart of this system has been extensively field-tested and factory-tested for reliability. Its failure rate is exceptionally low, and critically, it tolerates running dry — a real-world advantage in a vivarium setting where reservoirs can occasionally run empty. Custom manufactured specifically for this system, it is not an off-the-shelf component.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe nozzle assembly\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe included Value L misting assembly produces a fine mist with an average droplet size of around 50 microns — fine enough to raise ambient humidity effectively without saturating substrate unnecessarily. The check-valved tip is patented and prevents post-mist dripping, keeping the enclosure environment consistent between cycles. The nozzle is fully adjustable for direction and can be mounted to any surface up to 5\/8\" thick.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTimer control\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Digital Seconds Timer ST-24 allows you to programme misting durations in seconds, giving you genuine precision over humidity cycles rather than the broad intervals typical of basic plug-in timers. This is particularly useful for species with narrow humidity requirements or where short, frequent bursts are preferable to longer, less regular cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eScalability\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe MK STARTER Misting System v5.0 is designed to grow with your setup. The pump supports up to 10 nozzles, so additional nozzle assemblies and tubing can be added as you expand. For builds requiring more than 10 nozzles, a higher-capacity pump or a more advanced system would be required. Please note: a reservoir is not included with this kit and will need to be sourced separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether you're setting up a single bioactive vivarium or building out a multi-enclosure rack, the MK STARTER Misting System v5.0 gives you a dependable, expandable foundation for automated humidity management — backed by components built to last in real keeper conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peregrine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54147129672017,"sku":"CMK005","price":202.58,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0963\/0403\/8225\/files\/CMK005_1.jpg?v=1782592476","url":"https:\/\/viperia.co.uk\/products\/mk-starter-misting-system-v5-0","provider":"Viperia UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
