A method of analyzing a spray generated by a spray device for spraying pharmaceutical fluid, including providing a spray head of a spray device for spraying pharmaceutical fluid, the spray head including a spray orifice; causing a test fluid to pass through the spray head towards the spray orifice, the test fluid being air at a temperature that is different from ambient temperature; displaying, by strioscopy, the flow of test fluid leaving the spray orifice; and analyzing the display of the test-fluid flow so as to determine whether or not the test-fluid spray coming from the spray head complies with predetermined specifications. The cycle time for analyzing one spray head is less than 1.5 seconds, advantageously less than 1 second.
