Description

The Steinen Oil nozzle 18.00GPH / 45SS is an oil burner nozzle with a flow rate of 18 GPH, a 45 ° spray angle, and an SS spray pattern. It is used to atomize fuel oil into a spray for combustion in an oil-fired burner. The 45 ° angle defines the cone of the spray, and the SS pattern defines the spray shape. The 18 GPH rating states the nominal flow through the nozzle.

Choosing and fitting

Nozzles of this type are selected by matching the flow rate, spray angle, and spray pattern to the burner manufacturer's specification. The mounting form and thread must match the nozzle adapter or nozzle line in the burner. Before ordering, compare the existing nozzle's markings and the burner nameplate data. Installation requires the correct seating torque and a clean nozzle seat to avoid leakage or poor atomization.

Signs of failure

Nozzles of this type commonly fail by clogging, wear of the orifice, or leakage at the seat. When this happens, the burner may show a weak or distorted flame, delayed ignition, soot buildup, or a rise in flue gas temperature. Check the nozzle for debris, damage, and correct spray pattern, and verify the pump pressure and filtration.
