3 Delavan Spray Technologies Continually meeting the challenges of new industries and markets Delavan Spray Technologies, part of Goodrich Corporation, is a world leader in the design and manufacture of high quality spray nozzles and fluid handling systems. Since the company was founded back in 1935, the Delavan name has always stood for quality, flexibility and reliability. The continuous casting of metals is a relatively new process in the steel industry, but tremendous strides in development have been made in recent years. In the constant pursuit of technological advancements, Delavan s engineering staff have worked with steel mills world-wide to implement many improvements in the casting process. Better Cooling With Less Water The result of much research and development is the Delavan Cool-Cast nozzle, which with its tightly uniform droplet size can significantly improve slab quality and reduce energy costs in your continuous casting operation. The table below provides an illustration of the typical droplet sizes Typical Droplet Sizes Produced By CoolCast Nozzles Flow vs Sauter Mean Droplet (SMD) Air Sauter Mean Droplet (SMD) /3.8 2/7.6 3/ /19 6/22.7 7/26.5 8/3.3 9/34 1/38 (Compiled from independent test data comissioned by Delavan) Producing steel in today s market from slabs to bar mills including secondary cooling during the casting process requires efficient spray nozzles. Delavan s newest Block Style Cool-Cast nozzle offers flexibility in alignment for tight space in-between the framed segments. The ability to use quick connect couplings with the parallel piping gives operators access to quick release nozzles during rebuilds. With interchangeable components, liquid and air can be easily adjusted to meet product changes for various grades of products. The all stainless steel construction extends the durability and life of the nozzle in harsh environments. Typically Cool-Cast nozzles produce results using less air than other types, further reducing cost of ownership. The Block Style Cool-Cast nozzle has different thread sizes and liquid connections to avoid misalignment. Our specialist design teams can also provide customised designs for your own applications, contact our sales team on +44 () or inside USA Toll Free: 1-8 Delavan for more information.

4 Cool-Cast Product Technical Data Cool-Cast Nozzles Cool-Cast Spray Characteristics The patented nozzle design (US Patent ) produces a spray pattern with highly uniform droplets. This makes the cooling process more controllable, with reduced tendency for water puddling and localized uneven cooling or thermally induced roller deflection. The flat spray pattern is thick, even over angles from 6 to 12, offering good coverage with few nozzles. The Cool-Cast design consumes less air than conventional nozzles, which saves energy usage through reduced air compressor load.

The internal design of the nozzle provides a thicker spray footprint, thus resulting in an increased cooling efficiency over a standard flat spray nozzle. The nozzle also includes a built in location fitting to eliminate incorrect alignment. Flow rates are available from 4-18 LPM (1-4.8 USGPM) at 2.8 BAR (4 PSI) with a spray angle of 8º.
