Compressed Air: Standard cubic feet (scf) air is 20 times steam consumption in pounds at same pressure.

Example: An OB Atomizer uses 285 lb/hr steam at 75 psi. Compressed air consumption would be 285 × 20 = 5700 scfh (at 75 psi). Sizing: To select an atomizer, determine desired liquid atomization rate in gph. From capacity charts select the atomizer with gph rate using atomizing fluid pressure between 50 and 85 psig. Example: Desired rate: 175 gph waste oil at 100 SSU. From the chart you could select either the 5627-1-A (175 gph with atomizer pressure at 75 psig), or the 5627-1-B (175 gph with atomizer pressure of 55 psig). Choose the smaller -1-A atomizer so that operation will be at higher pressures.

Steam or Air Pressure at Atomizer in psi

WARNING: Situations dangerous to personnel and property may exist with the operation and maintenance of any combustion equipment. The presence of fuels, oxidants, hot and cold combustion products, hot surfaces, electrical power in control and ignition circuits, etc., are inherent with any combustion application. Components in combustion systems may exceed 160°F (71°C) surface temperatures and present hot surface contact hazard. Fives North American Combustion, Inc. suggests the use of combustion systems that are in compliance with all Safety Codes, Standards, Regulations and Directives; and care in operation.
