How a Venturi Injector works

One of the many mysteries of ozone application and use is the common Mazzei Venturi Injector.  At Ozone Solutions, we field many questions and try to help customers understand and correctly apply the use of these injectors.

 

Venturi Injectors

Venturi Injectors work by forcing water through a conical body which initiates a pressure differential between the inlet and outlet ports. This creates a vacuum inside the injector body, which initiates ozone suction through the suction port.

It is important to understand the relationship of inlet and outlet pressure when using an injector.  We recommend placing pressure gauges at both the inlet and outlet of the injector to determine the performance at all times.  The performance of the injector can be shown with the included performance chart.  For more information on this, we have a page on our website describing the chart, and how to use it in your application.
