Steinen Oil nozzle 6.50GPH / 60SS

The Steinen Oil nozzle 6.50GPH / 60SS is a diesel fuel nozzle with a capacity of 6.5 gallons per hour and a spray angle of 60 degrees. It features an SS (semi-solid) spray pattern, which delivers a semi-solid cone distribution. This nozzle is designed for use in diesel burners and is recommended for applications requiring large capacities, in addition to type PH nozzles. It is a component type nozzle, specifically an oil nozzle.

When selecting a replacement oil nozzle of this type, ensure the capacity (GPH), spray angle, and spray pattern (e.g., SS) match the burner's requirements. The nozzle must be compatible with the fuel type (diesel) and the burner's design. Installation involves removing the old nozzle and installing the new one with proper torque, ensuring no damage to the nozzle seat. Always verify the nozzle specifications against the burner manual before ordering.

Common failure modes for oil nozzles include clogging due to fuel impurities, which can cause uneven flame or poor combustion. A worn or damaged nozzle may result in soot buildup, reduced efficiency, or difficulty igniting. If the burner fails to start or produces a smoky flame, inspect the nozzle for blockages or wear and replace it if necessary.
