Fluidics 0.50GPH, 60SF nozzle

This is an oil nozzle rated at 0.50 GPH with the designator 60SF. The nozzle is a precision consumable that atomises fuel oil into a fine spray cone for complete combustion. The flow rate in gallons per hour (at the reference pressure) and the code 60SF together define the spray characteristics. Parts of this type are selected by three parameters: flow rate, spray angle, and spray pattern (hollow, solid, or semi-solid). The 60SF designation corresponds to a specific combination of angle and pattern; installing a nozzle with the correct rating but a different code can cause sooting, pulsation, or unstable ignition, so all three values must match the burner data plate. When replacing, verify that the nozzle thread and overall dimensions fit the burner head, and that the spray pattern is appropriate for the combustion head design. This nozzle is identified by catalogue article 480.892.024 from the Fluidics brand.
