Steinen Oil nozzle 0986SS25

The Steinen Oil nozzle 0986SS25 is a component designed for use in oil burners, where it atomizes fuel for efficient combustion. It has a capacity of 5 gallons per hour and a spray angle of 60 degrees. The spray pattern is SS, which delivers a semi-solid cone distribution, becoming more hollow at higher flow rates. This nozzle is suitable for applications requiring large capacities, similar to type PH nozzles.

When selecting an oil nozzle of this type, ensure the capacity, spray angle, and spray pattern match the burner's requirements. The nozzle must be compatible with the burner's mounting thread and length. Before ordering, verify the existing nozzle's specifications and compare them with the replacement to ensure a proper fit.

Oil nozzles can fail due to clogging, wear, or damage, leading to improper fuel atomization. Symptoms include poor combustion, soot formation, or unstable flame. Regular inspection and cleaning can help identify issues early, but if problems persist, the nozzle may need replacement.
