| Spray Analysis & Research Services
Overview
 For
more than 30 years, Spraying Systems Co. has maintained the industry's
most fully equipped spray nozzle test laboratories to conduct the studies
necessary to optimize spray system performance. Now, you can utilize these
laboratories and our highly trained staff to conduct conceptual product
design tests or test new quality control processes.
We are offering our Spray
Analysis and Research Services to better provide you a complete,
full-service company: from concept testing to final product design
and manufacture.
Our Capabilities
Spraying Systems Co. pioneered drop size analysis in the early 1960's with the development
of an electronic analyzer. It was a milestone achievement in accurately
measuring drop size within a spray's environment. Spraying Systems Co.
later added a light diffraction instrument followed by the addition of
an imaging analyzer and a light scattering instrument using Phase Doppler
techniques. By using this instrumentation, Spraying Systems Co. can characterize
sprays and obtain valuable information, such as drop size diameter averages,
distribution, and velocity profiles, within the accepted standards of
the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM).
Our Areas of Expertise
Our fully equipped
spray nozzle test laboratories offer the ideal environment for testing
conceptual product designs, quality control process testing, and spray
characterization of a customer's proprietary solution.
High-performance spray
systems are critical operating components for hundreds of industries.
Spraying Systems Co. has worked with these industries through our testing
services to help them determine if their spray nozzle performance is optimal,
and if not, how to quickly improve performance to save valuable time and
money.
Our highly trained
engineers and technicians have experience in the following spray system
applications:
- Coatings
- Chemical
processes
- Cooling
- Fire suppression
- Food processing
and powders
- Gas absorption
and cleaning
- Humidification

Our Credentials
Our staff is actively
involved in the international drop size community. Currently, they participate
as board members of the Institute of Liquid Atomization and Spray Systems
(ILASS) and as members of the American Society of Testing and Materials
(ASTM/Subcommittee E29 on Particle Size Measurement). With over 30 years
of experience, our staff is highly knowledge in spray characterization
and research techniques.
