Specialty Spray Patterns for Unique Applications
Not every industrial challenge can be solved with standard flat fan or cone nozzles. Some processes demand specialty spray patterns that deliver targeted performance under tough conditions. From dust suppression in mining to tank cleaning in food and beverage, specialty nozzles provide innovative solutions to niche industrial needs.
Types of Specialty Spray Nozzles
Spiral Spray Nozzles
-
Compact design for high flow rates with excellent clog resistance.
-
Produce fine droplets for effective pollution control, scrubbing, and cooling.
-
Common in gas cooling, flue gas desulfurization, and dust suppression systems.
Cluster Spray Nozzles
-
Multiple orifices create dense spray coverage.
-
Ideal for dust suppression, saturation spraying, and firefighting applications.
-
Provide large-volume distribution in a compact nozzle body.
Rotary Tank Cleaning Nozzles
-
Rotating spray patterns deliver 360° coverage inside tanks and vessels.
-
Used for CIP (Clean-in-Place), sanitation, and residue removal.
-
Available in high-impact and slow-rotation designs depending on cleaning needs.
Applications of Specialty Spray Patterns
-
Pollution Control: Spiral nozzles atomize liquids for gas cooling and scrubbing.
-
Dust Suppression: Cluster and spiral nozzles control airborne particles in mining, cement, and material handling.
-
Tank Cleaning: Rotary tank cleaning nozzles ensure efficient residue removal and sanitation in food, beverage, and chemical industries.
-
Fire Protection: Cluster nozzles deliver high-volume sprays for fire suppression systems.
-
Cooling & Quenching: Spiral nozzles are commonly used in heat treatment and steel processing.
