The ceramic disc (1) isconnected to the rotary control (5) and cantherefore be adjusted. The holes in the ceramicdiscs (1, 2) are staggered; this enables the flowrate and pressure to be varied when the discsare rotated.The diagram shows the two superimposedceramic discs (1, 2) and the water flow (blue) atvarious opening angles of 0° - 90°.At the minimum setting the water flows througha small hole in the middle of the ceramic discs(1, 2).1 Ceramic disc - spray lance side2 Ceramic disc - handgun side3 Handle, rotary control4 Connecting pin5 Housing, rotary control6 Handgun connection7 Spray lance connectionWater flow at opening angle 0° - 90°Cross-section through the rotary control (handgunside)Long-section through the rotary control62710° 10° 20° 30° 40°50° 60° 70° 80° 90°24325
