New to EXAIR’s line of Liquid Only Atomizing Nozzles is the PowerStream Liquid Only Atomizing Nozzles. This family of nozzles does not require any source of compressed air to operate, just a supply of pressurized liquid.

These nozzles produce atomized droplets by forcing the pressurized liquid to impact onto the surface of the nozzle. With the PowerStream style of Nozzles, the liquid exits the nozzle at a 75° angle from the liquid inlet axis. The pattern produced is a fan-shaped pattern, compared to the full-cone on the OmniStream and the hollow-cone for the HollowStream nozzles. Flow rates for this nozzle range from 0.25 GPM at a pressure of 10psi, up to 1.84 GPM at 60psi with the largest Model DL8075SS.

This style of nozzle is a good fit for general-purpose applications in industry and will commonly be used to spray inexpensive liquids such as water, rinse aids, or detergents. They’re also effective for spraying a variety of chemicals, pesticides, and herbicides.

Adjustments to the nozzle’s liquid flow rate can be achieved by regulating the liquid pressure supplied to the nozzles. As we increase the liquid pressure, the flow through the nozzle will increase. As the pressure increases, not only do we increase the overall liquid flow rate but also the size of the spray pattern. If a tight tolerance in liquid flow rate is needed, the Air Atomizing Nozzles will provide more precise control over the application of fluids.

EXAIR’s PowerStream nozzle is our smallest liquid-only nozzle, coming at 1/8 NPT from stock. The wide-angle spray pattern can be used to create a “water curtain” or a wide sheet of atomized liquid.

As with our other Liquid Only Atomizing Nozzles, it’s constructed of 303 Stainless Steel and rated for pressures up to 250 PSIG. As with any stock product from EXAIR, you can also count on same-day shipping with orders received by 2:00 ET for US customers.
