BETE . . .
Is the inventor of the the spiral nozzle. This highly efficient
nozzle produces the smallest droplet diameter at the lowest
pressure resulting in reduced power requirements for pumping.
BETE has:
The broadest line of spiral nozzles including improved clog-
resistant designs, wider angles, and a complete range of flows.
A full range of the standard nozzle designs: tangential inlet,
whirl disk nozzles, and fan nozzles, as well as low- and high-flow BETE Liquid Distribution
air atomizing nozzles for quench and dry scrubbing applications. Our Investment casting Foundry The BETE Analyzer
