Product catalog summary
Introduction
Ceramic spray nozzles are increasingly used in car wash applications due to their superior performance and cost efficiency. This document outlines the advantages of ceramic nozzles over traditional materials and provides guidance on their application.

Problems with Incorrect Nozzle Selection
Choosing the wrong spray nozzle can lead to wasted chemicals, poor spray distribution, quickly worn-out nozzles, and excessive water waste.

Advantages of Ceramic Nozzles
  • High Wear Resistance: Ceramic nozzles are 100 times more resistant to abrasion than brass and 20-30 times more than stainless steel.
  • Corrosion and Chemical Resistance: They withstand most acids and corrosive liquids better than metal nozzles.
  • Temperature Resistance: Can maintain strength up to 1400°C, making them suitable for high-pressure cleaning.
  • Cost Efficiency: Longer lifespan and reduced operating costs due to minimal waste of water and chemicals.


Applications and Characteristics
  • Applications: Ideal for high-pressure cleaning in automotive, industrial cleaning, and degreasing.
  • Structure: One-piece structure with a ceramic orifice insert, available in various materials like S.303 and S316.
  • Nozzle Characteristics: Flat spray pattern with uniform distribution, standard pressure of 3.0 MPa.


Performance and Cost Savings
  • Ceramic nozzles last significantly longer than stainless steel and brass, offering potential savings of 155 euros per nozzle.
  • For a car wash with 1000 nozzles, replacing them every three years could save over 50,000 euros annually.


Precision and Guarantee
  • Spray capacity and angle tolerances are guaranteed within ±5% and 3º, respectively, ensuring consistent performance.


Conclusion
Ceramic spray nozzles offer a sustainable and cost-effective solution for car wash applications, providing enhanced durability and efficiency. For further inquiries, contact Ikeuchi Europe B.V.

CERAMIC NOZZLE VERSUS CONVENTIONAL NOZZLE • ADVANTAGES OF CERAMIC VNP NOZZLES FOR CAR WASH Our ceramic nozzles last 20-30 times longer than the conventional stainless steel nozzles and 100 times longer than brass nozzles. If we assume that your ceramic nozzle last just 25 times longer, you can save around 155 euros per nozzle. Additionally, due to the reduction in water and chemicals used, the cost saving per spray nozzle is even higher. Due to the high wear resistance, the spray volume flow rate will stay intact for longer Stable performance Lifetime is significantly longer than other nozzle...
