Description
Rheem 7080B Oil Burner Nozzle (0.70 GPH, 80° Solid Spray) – OEM Replacement
The **Rheem 7080B Oil Burner Nozzle** is a precision component critical for the efficient and clean combustion of fuel in your oil-fired furnace or boiler. This brass nozzle is specified as a **0.70 Gallons Per Hour (GPH)** flow rate with an **80-degree (80°)** angle and a **Solid Spray Pattern**. It ensures the oil is atomized into a fine mist with a uniform droplet distribution, which is essential for smooth ignition, maximum heat output, and minimal fuel consumption.
Features & Benefits
- **Optimized Combustion:** Provides the exact flow rate and spray pattern required for efficient fuel use.
- **Solid Spray Pattern:** Produces a dense oil cone, suitable for larger oil burners and ensuring uniform heat distribution.
- **Rheem OEM Quality:** Precision-engineered brass construction ensures reliable atomization and long life.
- **Energy Efficiency:** A new, correctly sized nozzle helps reduce soot and improve the overall efficiency of the burner.
Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement
- Furnace or boiler ignition failure (failure to start or "lockout").
- Excessive smoke, soot, or carbon build-up in the burner area.
- Inconsistent heat or poor firing of the oil burner.
- Annual oil burner preventative maintenance (nozzles are typically replaced every year).
Compatible Models Include
(This part is used in various Rheem, Ruud, and compatible oil furnace and boiler systems. **Nozzle selection is critical and must match the system's specifications.**)
- Rheem Oil Furnaces
- Ruud Oil Boilers
- Specific oil burner models requiring 0.70 GPH / 80° Solid spray
