SDX Spray Drying Nozzles(Delavan Limited)

Continuous High Pressure Performance, Rugged Durability and Easy Maintenance

Since 1950 the Delavan SDX® range of spray drying nozzles set the standard of excellence by which other nozzles are judged. We were the first to hold a patent on the revolutionary swirl chamber design, with a single inlet, which minimises plugging
and maximises particle uniformity. This design has improved dry product quality due to the spiral configuration conforming to the natural path of liquid as it progresses toward the orifice.

Delavan is continually evaluating the critical design features of the various models to customise the nozzle characteristics for Infant formula milk powder and whey protein applications, to air assisted nozzles for varying viscosities.
