The nozzle is not just on/off. The instructions tell you how much to unscrew depending on what droplet size you require. Calibration? Good point.

Quote from instruction leaflet: "The operator can adjust the liquid flow to dispense materials at average droplet sizes under 20 microns. Droplets of this size ....."

I could continue, but do I need to?

How do you know when its under 20 microns - cant see no micron delivery markings on the side of the nozzle, has one notch in it and yellow sticker saying "switch off nozzle before turning off"....
Or is it one of them feeling things - yep this looks like its under 20 microns....
Is yours calibrated?

Given that information on that link you can now work out the flow rate for all the settings just by filling the machine with clean water and measuring how much is used on each setting in a given time, thus giving you the flow rate, but I am sure the manufacturer will already know this info if you ask them if it is not in their literature.

No need to apologise snowey. That is the great thing about this forum, you needed information, and contributors were able to supply it without suppliers 'selling'. Theres nothing wrong with a bit of friendly debate. Enjoy the pie!
