Nozzles Cutting Nozzles: Anm and Anme

The document discusses different types of cutting nozzles used for acetylene and propane gases. It describes ANM and ANME nozzles as solid copper designs for acetylene with smooth gas passages. PNM and PNME nozzles have a two-piece brass and copper design for propane, requiring turbulence between parts for adequate gas mixing. The document notes operating data provided is a guide, as equipment condition and accessories can impact actual gas flows.

PNM and PNME Conical Seat

„„ PNM’s differ from ANM nozzles as different gas


mixing criteria apply
„„ Two piece design consisting of a brass inner nozzle
and a hollow copper outer sheath
„„ Turbulence must be created between the inner and
outer parts of the nozzle to obtain adequate mixing Cutting Bore
of the propane and oxygen
External Sleeve
„„ The volume of mixed Oxy-Propane needs to be
more than double that of Oxy-Acetylene for the same
useable heat Preheat Grooves

„„ This extra volume is achieved by very large channels


that are present on the brass inner nozzle which Internal Sleeve
conduct the greater volumes of gas

Nozzle Operating Data


Important notes
„„All operating data relating to consumption, usage and
other such information is there as a guide
„„Condition of goods, hose length and diameter,
provision of non return valves, flashback arrestors
and their fitness for use, will have an effect on the
flows obtainable at the nozzle
„„The condition of which the operating data is derived,
is listed below each nozzle table
