A recirculating fluid flow system for an appliance includes a fluid pump that delivers process fluid through a fluid path. A tub is disposed within a cabinet and defines a processing space. The fluid path includes at least a portion of the processing space. The tub has an outlet that directs the process fluid toward the fluid pump. A sprayer assembly is coupled with the tub for directing the process fluid into the processing space. The sprayer assembly includes a spray head having a plurality of spray nozzles and an operable seam that extends through each spray nozzle of the plurality of spray nozzles. The operable seam is selectively separable to define a release opening that includes at least two spray nozzles of the plurality of spray nozzles.

A nozzle monitoring system is provided for a sprayer system of a work vehicle. The system includes a first sensor configured to generate signals associated with vibrations of a first nozzle apparatus on the work vehicle that disperses a primary fluid from the sprayer system during operation; and a controller having a processor receiving the signals generated by the first sensor and having a memory coupled to the processor and storing instructions. The processor executes the stored instructions to: convert the vibrations into a frequency domain representation; generate an image from the frequency domain representation; classify the image to generate a clog condition probability; and generate, based on the clog condition probability, a command to initiate a cleaning event of the first nozzle apparatus.
