The mounting bracket/manifold is a critical component of spray nozzle arrays that serves dual functions: (1) providing rigid mechanical support and precise positioning for multiple spray nozzles, and (2) distributing fluid from a single inlet to multiple outlet ports connected to individual nozzles. It ensures consistent spray patterns, proper alignment, and structural integrity of the entire nozzle assembly. This component is typically manufactured from stainless steel 316, aluminum alloy, or engineering plastics, depending on the application requirements. Key parameters include operating pressure (1.0–1.6 MPa), nominal diameter (15–50 mm per ISO 6708), temperature range (-20 to 120 °C), material grade (304/316L per ASTM A240), surface finish (Ra 0.8–1.6 μm per ISO 1302), tolerance (±0.05 mm per ISO 2768-m), weight (0.5–2.5 kg), flow rate (10–100 L/min per ISO 5167), connection type (G1/4–G1 per ISO 228-1), and corrosion resistance (≥500 h salt spray per ASTM B117). These values are reference ranges and must be verified for the specific model and application. The component is designed for use in machinery and equipment manufacturing, particularly in spray systems where consistent fluid distribution and nozzle alignment are critical. It is not a standalone product but a part of a larger assembly. For procurement, it is essential to confirm the exact specifications with the legal manufacturer or supplier, as the listed standards serve as verification references, not proof of compliance. The mounting bracket/manifold must be selected based on the fluid type, pressure, temperature, and nozzle configuration. Regular inspection for wear, corrosion, and seal integrity is recommended to maintain performance and safety.
The component receives fluid under pressure through a central inlet port. Internal channels distribute the fluid evenly to multiple outlet ports, each connected to a nozzle. Simultaneously, the bracket provides a stable mounting platform that maintains precise nozzle positioning and orientation relative to the target surface. The design ensures consistent spray patterns and structural integrity under operating conditions.
