Exair’s 3/8 NPT FullStream Liquid Atomizing Spray Nozzle
Exair’s 3/8 NPT FullStream Liquid Atomizing Spray Nozzle provides a full-cone spray pattern for pressurized liquids. According to the company, the nozzle is well-suited for industrial cooling, cleaning, washing, rinsing and dust suppression applications. Featuring a vaneless, tangential flow design, the FullStream has wide open internal features to resist clogging while simultaneously producing uniform distribution in a round pattern with medium-to-large droplets. The compact right-angle design operates at up to 250 psig liquid pressure, and functions seamlessly with liquids containing particulate.
FullStream nozzles supply liquid directly into the body of the nozzle, creating a swirling action within a vortex chamber. This vortex produces the desired spray pattern when the machined nozzle breaks the liquid surface tension, and exits the opening in a round, controlled spray angle.
Stainless steel construction provides durability and corrosion resistance, with operating temperatures up to 800°F (427°C). FullStream nozzles are CE compliant, and also available in ¼ NPT with a variety of flow rates. They complement Exair’s line of air atomizing and no drip air atomizing spray nozzles. Models come with a five-year warranty.
