Plastic Tank Nozzles (Eductors)

Plastic Tank Nozzles are available in PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride), PPL (Glass Reinforced Polypropylene), and PVDF (KYNAR®). Eductor circulation ratio of supply to discharge is 1:5.

Tank Nozzles are designed for 'in-tank' applications. The TLM operates on the principle of flow dynamics — pressurized fluid is accelerated through the nozzle to become a high velocity stream that entrains tank contents and intimately mixes with them. This combined stream exits the TLM at a high velocity creating a flow field capable of causing additional agitation and mixing the tank contents.

The Tank Nozzles' motive fluid may come from two sources. The tank liquid may be re-circulated through the eductor via an external pump or a secondary fluid may be introduced into the tank. Gases, as well as liquids, are used as the secondary fluid. Aeration and gas dispersion for chemical reactions are common uses of gas motive systems. Liquids are typically additives to be mixed with or to dilute the tank contents.
