MIST SPRAY NOZZLE | FOG SPRAY NOZZLE
The full cone or hollow cone pattern produced by nozzles will break down into a fog or mist after a certain distance from the orifice at a pressure. There are a number of nozzles that are designed to specifically produce this effect. Mist nozzles are widely refereed as fog nozzles as the term is interchangeable in various application. Liquid particles ejecting out of the orifice is classified either as mist or fog or spray based on the particle size measured in microns. Further details about the selection of the nozzle for your specific application is available below.
We also manufacture low pressure misting nozzle with Push fit connection. Low pressure push fit mist nozzles are available in 6 mm, 8 mm, 10mm and 12 mm connections.
A mist pattern is characterized by having a low flow rate of very small droplet sizes with almost no impact. Typically this pattern will be used for evaporation cooling, moistening or humidifying applications. A hydraulic nozzle will produce finer and finer droplets as liquid pressure is raised. So a nozzle that produces a mist at 5 bar pressure may well produce a fog spraying at 15 bar pressure. This means the term fog nozzle and misting nozzle are generally interchangeable as the same nozzle may well be able to produce both a mist or a fog depending on the operating pressure nozzle
