Atomized Nozzle

Air Atomizing Nozzle

An air atomizing nozzle breaks liquid into fine droplets using compressed air, which is required to achieve atomization. This solves the problem of delivering consistent, low-volume mist for humidification, cooling, or dust suppression in high-temperature or dusty industrial environments where water alone would not disperse effectively. The nozzle operates with air pressure as the primary force, allowing liquid to be atomized without relying on high liquid pressure. It can be adjusted to vary flow rate while maintaining spray pattern and droplet size.

Key Benefits

What This Nozzle Gives You

  • Uses compressed air to atomize liquid, so no high liquid pressure is needed
  • Adjustable liquid flow rate allows fine control over mist output
  • Produces fine droplets (about 30 micron) for effective humidification and cooling
  • Spray patterns include flat fan, round, and wide-angle round for different coverage needs
  • Suitable for use in high-temperature environments such as wax, cement, and metallurgical plants
  • Long service life and easy installation compared to high-pressure fog systems

Application Scenarios

Where It Is Installed

  • Humidifying air in a high-temperature wax factory where water must not pool or drip
  • Cooling hot surfaces or materials in a cement or ceramics plant without water damage
  • Controlling dust in a metallurgical or injection factory using a fine, non-impact mist
  • Disinfecting surfaces in a production line where a gentle, even mist is required
  • Maintaining consistent moisture levels in a process where high-impact spray would damage material

Who It Is For

Buyers Who Specify It

  • Plant maintenance teams managing dust or temperature control in high-heat processes
  • Process engineers specifying misting systems for humidification or cooling

    Comparison

    How It Compares With the Alternatives

    High pressure fog nozzleHigh pressure fog nozzles require expensive piping and high energy, while air atomizing nozzles use standard air lines and have longer service life
    Pressure atomizing nozzlePressure atomizing nozzles need high liquid pressure and are prone to clogging; air atomizing nozzles work with low liquid pressure and are better for viscous or dirty liquids
    Spiral nozzleSpiral nozzles pass solids better but are not designed for fine atomization; air atomizing nozzles produce consistent fine droplets for misting
    Full cone nozzleFull cone nozzles cover a circular area and are used for tank filling or cooling; air atomizing nozzles are better for directional, fine misting over a distance

    Use Guide

    Fitting and Running It

    1. Confirm the required spray pattern (flat fan, round, wide-angle round) based on coverage needs
    2. Ensure air pressure is supplied as it is essential for atomization
    3. Connect liquid to the LIQUID or L inlet and air to the AIR or A inlet
    4. Adjust the liquid flow rate to match the desired mist output
    5. Position the nozzle so the spray reaches the target area at 3 meters distance
    6. Inspect the nozzle regularly for clogging, especially when using recirculated or dirty liquid

    Questions Buyers Ask

    Air Atomizing Nozzle Questions

    What is the droplet size of the spray?

    The air atomizing nozzle produces droplets about 30 micron in size, which is suitable for fine misting and humidification.

    Do I need high liquid pressure to operate this nozzle?

    No. The air atomizing nozzle does not require high liquid pressure. Air pressure is the primary force for atomization.

    Can I adjust the spray output?

    Yes. The adjustable air atomizing nozzle allows you to vary the liquid flow rate to control the spray output while maintaining the spray pattern.

    What types of air atomizing nozzles do you offer?

    We offer pressure, siphon, and gravity types. Inner mixed type is best for fine atomization, and external mixed type is better for viscous liquids.
