TF spiral nozzles by BETE always provide a high discharge velocity

One model in the BETE TF series

BETE fluid-handling solutions are available from John Brooks Company Limited, and its original spiral nozzle design is one of the major advances in modern nozzle technology. The TF series of full-cone and hollow-cone spiral nozzles atomizes liquid into small droplets through a continuously descending spiral, so the fluid enters and exits without any internal restrictions through relatively large passages. This causes a higher discharge velocity, so lower pumping pressures can be used to make the necessary atomization.

For quenching, scrubbing, evaporative cooling

Also known as pigtail, corkscrew, or helix nozzles, these full-cone and hollow-cone spiral nozzles by BETE are recommended primarily for quenching, scrubbing, and evaporative-cooling applications. Users can work with a broad range of flow rates and spray angle with the TF series, with fine atomization, high energy efficiency, and no clogging. Other features include a one-piece construction with no internal parts, corrosion resistance, and a male connection standard; female connection is available by special order.

The spray pattern of the spiral nozzle is formed by the fluid shearing, along with the turns of the spiral, which create multiple concentric cones. The cones produce two or three bands of relatively coarse droplets surrounded by wider bands of relatively fine droplets. This nozzle family from John Brooks Company creates the finest droplet size of any direct-pressure nozzle for very fine atomization. Available spray angles range from 50 to 180 degrees, with flow rates running from 0.494 to 3,710 gallons per minute. Ten pipe connection sizes are available, going from 1/8 to four; construction materials include variations of brass, cobalt alloy, duplex, nickel alloy, PVC, CPVC, PVDF, PTFE, nickel aluminum bronze, and polypropylene.

Other common applications for the TF series include absorption, aeration, cooling of deluge of parts, evaporative disposal, dust control, fire protection (deluge, marine, special, toxic gas mitigation, or water wall), fogging, humidification, and misting.
