The rapid ultrasonic vibration from the piezoceramic causes the fluid to be pushed through the mesh disc, producing tiny droplets or mist. When an electrical voltage is applied to a piezo atomizer, the piezo element generates ultrasonic frequencies. A perforated mesh disc with many tiny holes is places on top of the liquid reservoir and piezo element.
The fluid solution is placed in a reservoir, surrounded by a piezo element, usually a piezo disc. Piezo atomizers are used to atomize liquid, creating and dispensing mist that can be found in nebulizers, fragrance dispensers, or cleaning devices. Let’s take a closer look at the component parts of a piezoelectric atomizer. Custom piezoceramic atomizers by Piezo Direct. Ultrasonic vibration in piezoelectric sensors and piezoelectric transducers are generated by converting an electrical charge (AC voltage) into a vibration movement. Piezo atomizers follow the same principle as piezo transducers by creating a mechanical response to an electrical input. Piezoceramics are often used to atomize liquid and fluid solutions through ultrasonic vibrations.
