SPRAY NOZZLES

Spray nozzles are used in thousands of different applications in all industries including the mining processes. The general types of the spray nozzles are listed below that most types are delivered from our stocks.

1.- FLAT JET NOZZLES
1.1.- AXIAL FLOW FLAT JET - Standart
    

Standard flat jet nozzles are the most common spray nozzle type offering very wide options for materials, flow rate, connection, spray angle, different accessories. These nozzles generate almost ''V FORM'' spray formation as it sprays. The simple design, easy availability and cost effectiveness make the flat jet spray nozzles widely preferred ones providing a solution in most cases. The proper surface and orifice finish guarantee the maximum efficiency, uniformity and accurate spray width. The connection options are threaded, dovetail, quick-fit or quick-connect and swivel joint.

1.2.- AXIAL FLOW FLAT JET - Side jet
    

Side flat jet spray nozzles have partially diverted or deflected spray formation with respect to nozzle central axis, so the form is not symmetrical. The nozzles are generally preferred for the applications where sprayed liquid is limited at certain area i.e. in a spray nozzle bar to stop the extra spillage of the liquid at the ends of the bar.

1.3.- AXIAL FLOW FLAT JET - Spoon jet (Tongue type)
      

It is also called as Tongue Type nozzles. The nozzle orifice is combined with the extension of the nozzle body in the shape of a spoon. The spray formation is deflected with respect to liquid feed axis. The main difference of the spray compared to standard flat jet nozzles is that the thickness of the liquid jet is thicker and more stable generating higher impact on the surface the liquid sprayed on to. The thicker spray reaches longer distances without broken into small droplets. 

flow rate ranges @ 3 bar	0,39 - 350 lpm
spray angle ranges	15 - 150 degrees
pressure ranges	0,5 - 20 bars
material ranges	SS303, SS316, brass, plastics

2.- FULL CONE NOZZLES
2.1.-AXIAL FLOW FULL CONE - SINGLE ORIFICE - Round spray (Conical spray)
    

The axial flow single orifice full cone nozzles form a conical shape form that covers the complete surface. This type is accepted as the most common standard one in the full cone nozzle family. The wide option for materials, flow rates, spray angles and connections make these nozzles quite preferable where the conical spray formation is demanded.
The axially fed liquid is swirled inside the nozzle body by the help of specially machined X-insert, slotted disc or S-vanes so that the liquid is shaped full conical just after it leaves the nozzle orifice.

2.2.-AXIAL FLOW FULL CONE - SINGLE ORIFICE - Square spray (Pyramid spray)
    

The round full cone spray nozzle can be converted to a pyramid (or, square projection on the surface) by a special design of the nozzle orifice section. Orifice looks like a duck-bill which help to form the full pyramid spray formation. The pyramid form turns right or left as the spray height is increased or decreased. These nozzles are specially demaded where the precise limitations are prerequisite for the application.

2.3.-AXIAL FLOW FULL CONE - MULTIPLE ORIFICES - round spray
    

The body structure of the multiple orifice spray nozzles is bigger than common full cone nozzle types. It contains minimum 2 or more orifices in one body. Since the same amount of liquid is divided into smaller orifices, it creates finer droplets compared to the same flow rate single orifice full cone nozzles. The small droplets can be achieved in low pressures i.e. even 1 bar. It is highly recommended to use a line filter due to the risk of orifice clogging. 

2.4.-TANGENTIAL FLOW FULL CONE - SINGLE ORIFICE - round spray
  

The spray formation is the same as the axial feed full conical spray nozzles but the body and the feed line is different. The liquid enters the nozzle body from the side (90° deflections with respect to nozzle orifice), and it turns inside the body by the effect of centrifugal forces, finally it leaves the orifice in the form of full cone spray. The orifice is machined in a separate part called as the mouthpiece that can be removed. The flow rate is not only adjusted by orifice itself but also the inner orifice from which liquid enters into the nozzle body. Since there is no insert to create the swirl effect, these nozzles are quite resistant to clogging.

3.- HOLLOW CONE SPRAY NOZZLES
3.1.- AXIAL FLOW HOLLOW CONE - SINGLE ORIFICE - Circular spray
      

The liquid is fed in the axial direction for this type hollow cone nozzles. The spray formation is conical but the inner side of the cone has no liquid. The spray formation when it touches the surface being treated is circular only. The liquid distribution in the circular form is very uniform. The inner surface of the spray form with fine droplet creates a large contact area therefore these nozzles are commonly used in gas treatment applications. The specially machined S-groove insert inside the body is mainly the key element to form the hollow cone.

3.2.-TANGENTIAL FLOW HOLLOW CONE - SINGLE ORIFICE - Circular spray
  

The spray formation is conical without any liquid inside the cone. The main difference is the body shape and feed line direction which is 90° deflected with respect to nozzle spray orifice. The body has also an inner orifice that is located eccentric to create centrifugal rotation to form the hollow cone spray. Since there is no additional internal piece inside the body, these nozzles are resistant to clogging.

4.- ELLIPSE NOZZLES - full eliptical cone spray
  

As its name implies, the spray forms in the shape of ellipse cone. Compared to standard conical full cone nozzles, these ones have higher impact values on the spray which hits the surface being treated. The spray orifice is machined with special tools to get an ellipse spray pattern. Since it covers a large area and having high impact value, it can be commented as these nozzles are the combination of flat jet and full cone nozzles.

5.- SPIRAL NOZZLES
        

The spiral nozzles are also called as corkscrew, pigtail or helix nozzles in the industries. It offers very wide range of spray angles, flow rates, and material options. The biggest advantage is that these nozzles are extremely resistant against clogging due to its large free passes in the orifice design. The spray formation is quite similar to a spiral pattern where is mostly requested in gas washing applications i.e. scrubbers, dust suppression and gas treatment.

6.- DOUBLE FLUID ATOMIZERS
   

When very fine liquid droplets are required for an application, double fluid atomizers are the main nozzles to be chosen. The spray generates very fine droplets event at low liquid pressures.

The double fluid nozzles work under the principle of collision of two different fluids (they are water and compressed air in most cases). The pressurized air hits the liquid and creates a scissor effect to break the water into fine droplets. The collision can be performed just before or after the spray nozzle orifice.

 

The working principle can be divided into 3 categories as follows;

1.- compressed air + pump (pressure principle)

2.- compressed air + free fall water (gravity principle)

3.- compressed air + water suction (suction principle)

In case of gravity principle, the water tank is located at a higher level from the nozzle,

In case of suction principle, the water tank is located at a lower level from the nozzle.

 

The collision (or, mixing) of the two fluid can be held inside the spray nozzle, then it is called as Internal Mix atomizers, if the collision happens just after outside of the spray orifice, it is then called External Mix atomizers.

It is quite complicated to select the right principle and atomizer for the application, our experts will help to the customers to make the right decision.

7.- ULTRASONIC ATOMIZERS
    

Ultrasonic atomizers are operating in a quite different manner in two steps;
The first step is to direct and inject the liquid towards to high-speed air where the first atomization of the liquid occurs. This two-phase mix proceeds into the field of sound waves that is generated by the resonator located in front of the orifice. The sound wave zone creates the second break-up of the two-phase mix and the results in the extreme fine droplets at the range of 30 mµ.
The independent control of each fluid enables the user to apply the spray according to necessities. The typical examples are to spray fragrance and precise humidification control.
