Atomizer Basket Options

In most atomizer configurations, the second-stage atomizer — or basket — is where the magic really happens. Large droplets from the hub hit the basket and are shattered into finer droplets. This shattering works even with viscous fluids or abrasive slurries. All baskets will fit interchangeably with all hubs, giving you a wide range of droplet spectra options.

The basket is made of wire mesh that is resistant to corrosion and abrasion. There are two mesh sizes and two basket sizes available. The 12-Mesh gives better clog resistance, allowing free passage of particles up to .060" as well as superior flow range and durability. The smaller 30-Mesh gives better fine droplet performance, and allows passage of particulates as fine as .018". The larger 12" baskets give finer droplets and higher flow capabilities at a given speed. They are best for low-speed or high-volume applications when fine droplets are specified.Choosing the right combination involves many factors.
