Performance

Configuration

Standard Feature

The volume of liquid passing through a nozzle (also called the nozzle’s capacity) is typically measured in liters per minute. Flow rate is affected by liquid pressure and other factors, including the specific gravity and viscosity of the liquid being sprayed.
> _For more information on liquid flow rate or nozzle capacity, download our [technical reference document](https://spray.widen.net/s/fhn6dz7tpz/cat75hyd_metric_tech-reference_a) or contact your [local Spraying Systems Co. sales rep](https://www.spray.com/contact/find-a-representative)._

Liquid Flow Rate

Threaded nozzles are typically offered with tapered pipe threads. NPT and BSPT threads are the most common. Other thread types are available for selected nozzles.

Inlet Connection Thread Type

Standard hydraulic nozzles range in connection size from 1/8” threaded nozzles up to those with 12” flange connections. Larger connection sizes typically have larger flow rates but a wide variety of configurations are available to meet your application needs.

Inlet Connection Size

Different nozzle types are _**“rated”**_ at various pressures, depending on the function of the nozzle and the pressure at which a spray pattern is fully formed. The flow rate (typically measured in liters per minute) at the rated pressure (measured in bar) is highlighted in catalog performance tables and can serve as a reference point for comparing different nozzles.
> _Keep in mind when comparing nozzles of different types that the rated pressures may vary and will affect flow rate._

Liquid Flow Rate at Rated Pressure

The pressure (measured in bar) at which reference flow rate and spray angle data are taken.

Rated Pressure

Many hydraulic spray nozzles include a numeric capacity size in the part number. Capacity size is often related to the flow rate of the nozzle at the rated spray pressure for that nozzle. For example, the capacity size for a 1/4HH10 FullJet® nozzle is “10”, which reflects a 3,78 lpm flow rate at 0,68 bar.

Capacity Size

Spray nozzles are manufactured from a wide variety of materials that have been determined to meet the usual requirements of the applications most commonly associated with that type of nozzle. Standard materials include brass, steel, various stainless steels, hardened stainless steels, many plastics and various carbides. Spray nozzles can also be supplied in other materials upon special request. Materials of construction affect nozzle wear life and resistance to corrosion and abrasion.

Material Composition

Different nozzle types are _**“rated”**_ at various pressures, depending on the function of the nozzle and the pressure at which a spray pattern is fully formed. The angle of the spray pattern as it emerges from the nozzle, when spraying at the rated pressure orifice, can serve as a reference point for comparing different nozzles.

Spray Angle at Rated Pressure

Threaded nozzles are available with male (external) threads or female (internal) threads.

Inlet Connection Gender

Most nozzles are available with NPT or BSPT connections. Other threaded connections are available on select nozzles and additional connection types, such as flange and quick-connect, are also common. Some nozzles are also available with sanitary connections.
