Optimization Tips<br />

• Reduce operating costs and maintenance downtime by using quick-connect<br />

nozzles. Nozzle bodies remain on the header – only spray tips are replaced.<br />

• Use strainers to reduce nozzle clogging and ensure optimum performance.<br />

• Use adjustable ball connections for quick, precise nozzle orientation.<br />

• Evaluate your specific spraying application and implement a regular nozzle<br />

maintenance plan.<br />

Maintenance essentials include:<br />

– Visual inspection of spray pattern. In hollow cone nozzles, nozzle wear<br />

destroys the spray pattern uniformity. Streaks develop and the pattern<br />

becomes heavy or light in sections of the spray.<br />

– Monitor flow rate and pressure to detect changes resulting from<br />

orifice or vane wear.<br />

• Be sure to use the best type of hollow cone nozzle for your application.<br />

– Whirlchamber-type hollow cone nozzles produce a good interface<br />

between air and drop surfaces and are ideal when a combination of small<br />

drop size and capacity is required.<br />

– Deflected-type hollow cone nozzles use a deflector cap to form an<br />

“umbrella” shaped hollow cone pattern. These nozzles are often used to<br />

flush or clean pipe interiors and small tanks.<br />

– Spiral-type hollow cone nozzles produce a hollow cone pattern comprised<br />

of drops that are slightly coarser than those in other hollow cone sprays.<br />

This type of nozzle offers high flow rates in a compact size.<br />
