Which PSI range is recommended for producing a pin stream with a compressed-air sprayer?

Producing a pin stream with a compressed-air sprayer is most effective within the range of 5 to 20 PSI. This pressure range allows for adequate atomization of the spray, which is essential for achieving a fine and targeted application.

At lower pressure levels, the stream may not have enough force to properly atomize the product, leading to larger droplets that can result in uneven coverage and reduced efficacy. Conversely, higher PSI levels can create a mist rather than a concentrated pin stream, making it difficult to control the application and potentially causing drift or overspray.

Thus, the recommended PSI range provides a balance that ensures a precise application while minimizing waste and maximizing effectiveness.
