A recirculating type atomizer which has a body, a discharge orifice in one end of the body and a lance, movable in the body having a tip for closing the discharge orifice, is provided with electrical circuit means for indicating when the orifice is closed. The circuit means is formed in part by the body and the lance, the rear end of the lance being electrically insulating from the body so that the circuit means is only completed when the tip of the lance closes the orifice.
