Fluidics 32.00GPH, 60SF nozzle

This is an oil nozzle, catalogue article 480.892.045, from the Fluidics range. The designation indicates a rated flow of 32.00 GPH at the reference pressure and a spray angle of 60 degrees. The suffix “SF” denotes the spray pattern — this parameter, together with the flow rate and angle, determines how the fuel cone sits inside the combustion head. Parts of this class are precision consumables: they atomise the oil into a fine cone so that combustion is complete and stable. When selecting a replacement nozzle, all three parameters must match the burner data plate. A correct flow rate with the wrong pattern can cause sooting, pulsation or unstable ignition. The spray angle influences the flame length and width relative to the blast tube. The thread size must also be checked, though it is not stated here. Nozzles are typically replaced during annual service because wear or carbon deposits alter the spray quality and degrade performance. This Fluidics nozzle is a direct-fit component for burners that use a 32.00 GPH / 60° solid cone nozzle. Always verify the existing part’s markings before ordering. If the original nozzle is not visibly legible, consult the burner manual or contact the manufacturer for the correct specification.
