A mist sprayer is a very useful component that makes it pretty easy to access products from the bottles where they are stored.
The mist sprayer contains an engine with a dip tube by which the content/product is pumped.
Fine mist sprayer as commonly called, is majorly used for personal care and cleaning products that deliver a fine mist spray when dispensed.
It is important to purchase your mist sprayers from a reputable and reliable mist sprayer manufacturer so that you have perfectly working mist sprayers for your products.
However, in this article we discuss components of mist sprayers and their functions which you should look out for when trying to purchase yours.
The dust cap is often made with PP plastic and mostly produced in clear or colourless form.
It serves as the dust cover and safety cap, it shields the actuator from being covered in dust and prevents accidental actuation. The dust cap can also be produced in custom color.
Actuators are commonly made from PP plastic, this is the part that is pushed down to spray out the product from the bottle.
It is distinct from an actuator on a lotion pump in that a mist sprayer has internal components with an ‘insert’ to give the specific misting style of the product being sprayed.
Also, some fine mist sprayers possess features that make it possible to lock to prevent accidental dispensing.
This is a tiny component that comprises of channels through which the liquid flows to create the mist style.
The insert is mostly fitted on the exterior of the actuator and this is where the product escapes from the sprayer.
The closure, as its name implies, holds the whole assembly of components together on to the bottle.
It also often produced with pp plastic, and can come in many surface finishes or designs such as smooth, matte, rib side, and glossy finishes.
In addition, a metal overshell can be used sometimes in order to enhance the package’s shelf appeal.
The gasket on the exterior, serves as a compressible seal which seals the closure onto the bottle’s land area, this is done to prevent leakage.
Different gasket materials are needed and it is largely dependent upon the product or chemical makeup. The gasket is a critical component that must be tested to guarantee its compatibility.
Interestingly, you can customize the gasket with different materials like neoprene rubber, plastic rubber, BUNA and LDPE.
Although the products that constitute the mechanism differ from one design to the other, it typically comprises of many components like the piston, spring, housing cap, stem, seal and also overall housing.
It is the mechanism that transfers the product from within the bottle to the actuator. Generally, the spring compresses as the actuator is pressed down, pulling the product through the dip tube to the interior of the housing.
Further actuation pumps the liquid upward by the piston and towards the actuator and escapes from the pump through the actuator insert.
This is the long, thin, plastic tube that extends the reach of the sprayer to base of the bottle.
It is different from that of a lotion pump which is typically thicker. In a fine mist sprayer, it is often slightly bent to enable it reach the bottom of the push up area of the bottle and it is cut either in a ‘v’ shape or at the angle to prevent clogging.
These are the components that you will find in a fine mist sprayer. It is important that you know their functionalities so you can detect problems if any.
However, the process will be problem free if you patronize a quality mist sprayer manufacturer.
