Abstract
An outlet nozzle for centrifugal drums has a nozzle body with at least one cylindrical portion and having an insert connected to the nozzle body. An inlet channel and an outlet channel, which is oriented at an angle with respect to the inlet channel, are formed in the nozzle body. The insert has a torque transmitting contour for arranging a tool with a complementary tool torque transmitting contour in position in order to rotatingly secure the nozzle body in an opening of a rotatable centrifugal drum and to release said nozzle body. The insert also has a polygonal cross-section, which is smaller than the cross-section of the cylindrical section. The insert starting from the polygonal, in particular, rectangular cross-section, merges with the cylindrical section of the nozzle body over rounded surfaces having a radius greater than 1.0 mm.
