Single-Stage Atomizers

Single-stage atomizers deliver coarse droplet atomization with superior resistance to clogging and abrasion. Available in hydraulic or electric powered configurations.

Creates radial droplet patterns with a spray radius from 2.5 – 13 feet (0.8 – 4 meters)
Handles chemical flow rates up to 12 gallons per minute (26.5 liters per minute)
Droplet spectra from 250 – 1000+ microns in diameter (what's a micron?)
Spray heavy or viscous suspensions with suspended particulate as large as .150" (3.8 mm)

This page will familiarize you with the characteristics and performance of single stage atomizers. To choose one, scroll to the bottom of the page for common configurations. For more information on specific configurations, visit the Proptec or Penguin series pages.
