As dust control issues continue to provide challenges, advances in dust suppression technologies are offering more effective solutions. For industries with moisture sensitive dust particles or for compact locations, there is a unique Ultrasonic Atomiser Nozzle that’s proving to be highly effective.

Sometimes referred to as the “whistling nozzle” the Ultrasonic Atomiser Nozzle from Tecpro Australia is providing a unique solution for many applications.

How they work
The Ultrasonic Atomiser Nozzles use a sophisticated process in which tiny water jets are injected into a high-speed airflow before passing through a field of sound waves. These sound waves are produced by a resonator in the front of the Nozzle which breaks the atomised spray into even smaller water droplets.

The size of the droplets can be controlled to match the size of the dust particles by simply controlling the air pressure. The droplets can be as small as 46 micron in diameter up to 600 microns in diameter. The mist produced by the Ultrasonic Atomiser is so consistently fine, it evaporates quickly. This avoids the formation of mud and sludge in the vicinity. Plus, the Nozzles are drip-free due to their infinite turn down ratio.

Self-cleaning properties to prevent clogging
While Ultrasonic Atomisers require precision machining to produce, they are easy to install and require very little maintenance due to their self-cleaning properties and larger than usual nozzle orifice. In fact Patrick Cooper, Technical Consultant at Tecpro Australia describes the Ultrasonic Atomiser Nozzles as “a foolproof solution”.

The Ultrasonic Atomising Nozzles are the ideal dust suppression remedy for many areas such as conveyor transfer points within industries including mining, cement, quarries and materials handling. They can even be used in existing applications where air and water piping are already installed.
