FULL CONE SPRAY NOZZLES

This spray pattern produces a solid cone of water from the nozzle orifice.

Some typical applications for full cone nozzles are: spray cooling i.e. continuous casting, gas scrubbing, process cooling etc.

Due to the wide number of process requirements, full cone nozzles have evolved into a range of specialized types, where the full cone spray pattern, or a pattern similar to a full cone, is obtained through different techniques.

Standard full cone nozzles (Turbulence nozzle)

With these spray nozzles the full cone spray pattern is created by the design of the vane. The vane is placed at the nozzle inlet so that when the water enters the nozzles a rotational action is created and the full cone spray pattern is formed.

· Spray angles can vary from 15° to 120°.

· A square pattern full cone spray pattern can also be created through a specially designed orifice.

Spiral full cone nozzles (Impact Nozzle)

This is not strictly a full cone. The spiral design creates a series of hollow cone patterns in sequence, giving an overall full cone effect.

Although not such an accurate & even full cone pattern, this design offers resistance to blocking and is an ideal choice in those applications where safety is the prime concern, e.g. fire fighting systems, and also in gas scrubbing where nozzles are difficult to check.

Multiple full cone spray nozzles (Turbulence Nozzle)

This spray pattern is formed from a series of narrow cone spray patterns focused in a defined configuration. This produces a wide-angle cone with fine atomized droplets.
