How to select a nozzle for methanol

A methanol nozzle is a device used to spray methanol and is commonly used in automotive and industrial applications. When choosing a methanol nozzle, it is necessary to select the right model for different needs and occasions. The following will introduce how to choose the model of methanol nozzle from several aspects.

Methanol nozzle

Flow rate of spray

The spray flow rate of a methanol nozzle is the volume of methanol sprayed per unit of time. The size of the spray flow directly affects the spraying effect and spraying quality. When selecting a methanol nozzle, you need to choose the right spray flow rate for different needs and applications.
For example, for some occasions where a large area needs to be sprayed, a methanol nozzle with a high spray flow rate is needed. For some occasions where precise spraying is required, it is necessary to choose a methanol nozzle with a lower spray flow rate.

Angle of spray

Refer to the angular range covered by the methanol sprayed from the nozzle. The size of the spraying angle directly affects the spraying effect and the spraying area. An appropriate spray angle needs to be selected when choosing a methanol nozzle for different needs and applications.
For example, methanol nozzles with a larger spray angle need to be selected for applications where a larger area needs to be covered. For some occasions where precise spraying is required, it is necessary to choose a methanol nozzle with a smaller spray angle.

Material of nozzle

One of the factors to consider when choosing. Generally, methanol nozzles are made of stainless steel, copper and aluminum alloy. Nozzles made of different materials have different pros and cons, so you need to choose the right material for different needs and uses.
For example, stainless steel nozzles have the advantages of high corrosion resistance and long service life, but they are expensive. Copper and aluminum alloy nozzles are inexpensive and easy to work with, but have poor corrosion resistance.

Type of interface

Also one of the factors need to be considered when choosing. Different nozzles have different interfaces, so you need to choose the right nozzle for your needs and the type of equipment interface.
For example, some nozzles have standard ISO interfaces and can be connected with most equipment. While others have special interface types that require the selection of the appropriate nozzle for the specific type of equipment interface.

Shape of spray

Different nozzles can produce different spray shapes, such as fan, cone, and column. Differences in spray shape can affect spraying effect and quality, so the desired spray shape should be considered when selecting a methanol nozzle.
For example, a fan spray can cover a large area and is suitable for spraying large areas, while a cone spray is suitable for finer spraying.

Please confirm all these factors mentioned above for your needs and usage when choosing, then select the right model for purchase and use.
