MaxiPass Nozzle Overview
The MaxiPass nozzle is designed for high reliability and clog-resistant performance, featuring the largest free passage available in a full cone nozzle. It is equipped with two unique S-shaped internal vanes that allow the passage of large particles, making it suitable for handling dirty and lumpy liquids. The nozzle is available with male and female connections, and a flanged connection is also an option. It is patented in the U.S.
Spray Characteristics
The MaxiPass nozzle offers a full cone spray pattern with angles of 30°, 60°, 90°, and 120°. It operates efficiently under difficult conditions, with flow rates ranging from 0.7 to 978 gallons per minute (GPM). For flow rates up to 4500 GPM, BETE Applications Engineering should be contacted. The spray angle performance varies with pressure, and BETE should be consulted for applications above 40 PSI.
Flow Rates and Dimensions
The document provides detailed flow rates and dimensions for various nozzle sizes ranging from 3/8" to 4" pipe sizes. Flow rates are specified for different pressures (PSI), and dimensions are given for both male and female connections. The nozzles are made from standard materials such as Brass, 316 Stainless Steel, PVC, Polypropylene, and PTFE, although PTFE is not available for 3/8" and 1/2" sizes.
Design Features
The nozzle's design ensures high energy efficiency and the ability to handle large particles without clogging. It is suitable for applications requiring high reliability under challenging conditions.
Additional Information
The document includes a comparison of the free passage available with the BETE MaxiPass nozzle versus a traditional full cone nozzle, highlighting the MaxiPass's ability to pass particles 2-3 times larger in diameter. For specific applications and critical dimension checks, BETE should be contacted. The document also provides a formula for correcting flow for fluids with a specific gravity other than 1.
