NA-05 - Cleaning: Cleaning Nozzles

Pressure losses

Pressure loss in the cleaning nozzle (2)

In the cleaning nozzle, the water flow is deflected and distributed over the individual nozzle apertures and inserts.

Average water jet deflection with an efficiency of up to 90%
 
Good water jet deflection with an efficiency of up to 97% [FI-KEG]
