An apparatus for intermittently applying a liquid from a pressurized source onto a target substrate in the form of liquid streams, the apparatus comprising: a manifold chamber for receiving the liquid from the pressurized source; a plurality of liquid channels in fluid communication with the manifold chamber, each liquid channel having a central channel axis and liquid discharge end projecting towards the target substrate whereby the liquid from the manifold chamber passes through the liquid channels creating the liquid streams directed toward the substrate; a plurality of impingement jet directional passages, each impingement jet directional passage being associated with a corresponding liquid channel, each impingement jet directional passage further having: an impingement jet discharge opening disposed at a location between the liquid discharge end of the associated liquid channel and the target substrate, and a central impingement jet axis oriented in an intersecting relation to the central channel axis of the corresponding liquid channel whereby an impingement stream passing through the impingement jet tube towards the liquid stream will create a diverted flow path in the associated liquid stream; and a liquid collection module having an entrance for receiving the diverted flow path of the liquid stream, a funnel section in fluid communication with the entrance and having a cross section that reduces in size as the funnel section progresses away from the entrance, and an exit allowing fluid progressing through the funnel section to exit the collection module, wherein the liquid collection module further includes a leading edge positioned on the lower side of the entrance adjacent to the undisrupted flow path of the liquid stream, wherein the leading edge is spaced about 0,127 mm to about 0,381 mm (about 5 to about 15 mils) from the boundary of the normal flow path of the liquid stream. a manifold chamber for receiving the liquid from the pressurized source; a plurality of liquid channels in fluid communication with the manifold chamber, each liquid channel having a central channel axis and liquid discharge end projecting towards the target substrate whereby the liquid from the manifold chamber passes through the liquid channels creating the liquid streams directed toward the substrate; a plurality of impingement jet directional passages, each impingement jet directional passage being associated with a corresponding liquid channel, each impingement jet directional passage further having: an impingement jet discharge opening disposed at a location between the liquid discharge end of the associated liquid channel and the target substrate, and a central impingement jet axis oriented in an intersecting relation to the central channel axis of the corresponding liquid channel whereby an impingement stream passing through the impingement jet tube towards the liquid stream will create a diverted flow path in the associated liquid stream; and an impingement jet discharge opening disposed at a location between the liquid discharge end of the associated liquid channel and the target substrate, and a central impingement jet axis oriented in an intersecting relation to the central channel axis of the corresponding liquid channel whereby an impingement stream passing through the impingement jet tube towards the liquid stream will create a diverted flow path in the associated liquid stream; and a liquid collection module having an entrance for receiving the diverted flow path of the liquid stream, a funnel section in fluid communication with the entrance and having a cross section that reduces in size as the funnel section progresses away from the entrance, and an exit allowing fluid progressing through the funnel section to exit the collection module, wherein the liquid collection module further includes a leading edge positioned on the lower side of the entrance adjacent to the undisrupted flow path of the liquid stream, wherein the leading edge is spaced about 0,127 mm to about 0,381 mm (about 5 to about 15 mils) from the boundary of the normal flow path of the liquid stream.
