Any engineer can tell you the nozzle size from the colour codes, as
the numbers are the same as the colour codes of resistors:

black = 0, brown = 1, red = 2, orange = 3, yellow = 4,
green = 5, blue = 6 and violet = 7.
If you had say a 50-micron nozzle, the colour code would be green and black.

Colleagues,

I have an assorted range of screw-on type nozzle sizes and nozzle holders
that apparently were designed for an early model FACSTAR that arrived
with our used FACSTAR Plus when we purchased it. I would be willing to
send them to anyone that might want them as an alternative to discard.
And while I'm on the subject can anyone tell me what the color codes on
nozzles reference. I have an assortment of ceramic o-ring type nozzles
that arrived all mixed up in unlabeled containers whose size I can't
readily
determine. Thanks.
