NORTHEAST CONTROLS INCORPORATED TEL: 201-419-6111 ext. 23 for Venturi Group www.jrgjt.com INJECTOR INSTALLATION FOR PRESSURE WASHING Installed as shown above, injector will produce a high pressure hot water discharge up to 200°F. Balance between injector capacity and total nozzle discharge capacity is important. With proper size nozzle, and using dry steam for operation, discharge pressures equal to or even greater than boiler pressures are obtainable.
