Mazzei® Injectors are high-efficiency, venturi-type, differential pressure injectors with internal mixing vanes. When a sufficient pressure difference exists between the inlet and outlet ports of the injector, a vacuum is created inside the injector body, which initiates suction of a liquid or gas through the suction port.
| When pressurized water enters the injector inlet, it is constricted toward the injection chamber and changes into a high-velocity jet stream. The increase in velocity through the injection chamber results in a decrease in pressure, thereby enabling an additive material to be drawn through the suction port and entrained into the water stream. As the jet stream is diffused toward the injector outlet, its velocity is reduced and it is reconverted into pressure energy (but at a pressure lower than injector inlet pressure). | ![]() |
Mazzei® Venturi Injectors are extremely efficient. They operate over a wide range of pressures and require only a minimal pressure differential between the inlet and outlet sides to initiate a vacuum at the suction port.

Mazzei® Injectors are of very high quality and are engineered for exact performance. Selecting the right injector simply requires that you refer to the Performance Tables in the Mazzei Injector Catalog or click on the link in this web site.
The performance tables are divided in two sections: liquid suction and gas suction. Using the guidelines below, you can select the injector that is right for your application.
From your data above, use the Mazzei Injector Performance Tables, which can be printed out from this website, to select an injector model able to exceed your desired injection (suction) rate.
The total water flow of the system must be greater than the injector's motive flow capacity (water through the injector).
Remember, for the injector to operate properly, it must experience a higher inlet pressure than outlet pressure (called the differential pressure). Our injectors are very efficient and begin to operate with as little as 20% differential pressure!
There are several installation methods available to ensure the Injector operates properly.
Using a metering valve on the suction line can accurately control the suction rate. Viscosity and weight of material will affect the suction rate.
The water flow (motive flow) listed in the Performance Tables indicates the amount of water that the Injector must see at a given pressure. Also, since the Injector acts as a flow restrictor, this is the total amount of water that will pass through at this pressure.
The Outlet Pressure is independent of the Inlet Pressure, which is usually delivered by a pump. For example, if pressurized water is flowing through an Injector and runs down a short pipe and simply falls on the ground, the Outlet Pressure (back-pressure) is nearly zero. Any restrictions downstream in the form of piping, filters, valves, sprinklers, emitters, etc. cause the Outlet Pressure (or back-pressure on the Injector) to change.
