Delavan Oil nozzles 01400-60B7

The Delavan 01400-60B7 is an oil nozzle with a capacity of 14 gallons per hour and a spray angle of 60 degrees. It features a B spray pattern, which is a solid-cone type that distributes droplets uniformly, becoming progressively more hollow at higher flow rates, particularly above 8.00 GPH. This nozzle provides smooth ignition and efficient combustion, especially in larger burners. It is identified by article numbers 01400-60B7, 3042352, and 345.892.146.

Oil nozzles of this type are selected by matching the capacity (in gallons per hour), spray angle, and spray pattern to the burner's requirements. The nozzle must be compatible with the burner's mounting thread and length. Before ordering, verify the existing nozzle's markings or consult the burner manual to ensure correct specifications. Installation involves removing the old nozzle and installing the new one with the appropriate torque, ensuring no debris enters the fuel line.

When oil nozzles of this kind fail or become clogged, the burner may exhibit poor ignition, uneven flame, or soot buildup. The equipment might run inefficiently, produce excessive smoke, or fail to start. Check the nozzle for blockages, wear, or damage, and replace it if necessary.
