 Spray Nozzle Selection
With more than 87,000 different spray nozzles and accessories from which to choose, spray nozzle selection can be challenging. Once you identify the performance you need and evaluate your operating environment, you will be able to narrow down your options. In some cases, you will find just a few nozzles that are suitable and, in other cases, you may find dozens of possible options.
We have a variety of tools available to assist you with nozzle selection. We encourage you to use them to learn more about the nozzles that will meet your needs. However, we recommend that you contact your local sales engineer for selection assistance especially if your application requires high precision. Our sales engineers have the applications expertise to guide you to the best spray system solution.
Specification and Selection Tools
Flow rate calculator: Use this calculator to determine the flow rate of any nozzle at any operating pressure. Inputs to this calculator are the nozzle type, current operating pressure and flow, desired flow or desired pressure.
Spray Coverage: Determine the spray nozzle coverage at a known spray height and spray angle, determine the spray angle required to produce desired spray coverage at a known spray height or determine the spray height required to produce desired spray coverage at a known spray angle.
