Evaporative Cooling | Energy Efficient | Non Ferrous

PT-170G3
  • Cooling towers are simple to operate and utilize energy efficient evaporative cooling.
  • Cooling Towers are typically used to supply cooling temperatures between
    5°F to 10°F above the ambient wet bulb conditions.
  • Warm water returning from the process is evenly distributed over the wet desk. Counter airflow driven by the fan causes a portion of the warm process water to evaporate cooling the remaining water.
  • Offering cooling towers in capacities from 45 to 270 tons in single and expanded cell systems.
