An induced-draft tower needs to be furnished and installed with field erected, splash fill, pultruded FRP cooling tower structure, cross flow type, and industrial cooling tower. Manufacturers will share significant information about materials they use to construct FRP based cooling towers in this article.
Fans
Manufacturing units intend fans for cooling towers. The selection and speed of the fan for a desired tower are based on the cell size, and horsepower requirements in the tower. Blades of the fan are prepared from FRP, fan hubs are prepared from heavy-duty steel plate and either epoxy coated. All fans are assembled with galvanized hardware or stainless steel.
Fan stack
FRP stack has a blade tip clearance that is responsible for optimum fan performance. Manufacturers usually intend exceptional fan stack design that has large entrance diameters to provide good fan performance to the user.
Gear reducer
The selection of gear reducer is based on fan speed and requirement of horsepower for the fan.
Drive shafts
The drive shafts are prepared from mild galvanized steel, or with stainless steel tubes or CFC materials. These shafts are dynamically balanced to lower operating vibrations.
Fill
Every cooling tower device is initially studied by experts to ensure quality selection of the fill and fill spacing.
Piping
Usually manufacturers provide side inlet piping. They also leverage on other economical method that requires only single riser for every hot water basins. You can avail all FRP, steel, or PVC pipes in customized formats.
Water distributing system valves
Reliable flow control valves offers uniform water distribution. Manufacturers are providing heavy duty valve intended with durable materials requiring minimum maintenance.
Nozzles
Engineers use specialized nozzles in the hot water basins. These target nozzles are initially crafted to provide the required water rate. These are prepared from robust materials that make nozzles resistant to temperature and prevent them from weathering damage. Nozzles offer uniform water distribution across the fill area.
Splash boxes
Splash box is placed inside the hot water basin. The open, gravity flow design of the splash box promotes uniform water distribution to the fill. This distribution allows user to access quick, affordable maintenance and cleaning with an ease.
Drift eliminators
These are extremely efficient thermoformed PVC bonded components. Engineers require no extra structure to support the drift eliminators.
Casing
Casing of the tower is made with corrugated FRP sheets. FRP material is waterproof and antirust. It is able to withstand biological deterioration and need zero maintenance. Engineers attach the casing to structural components with stainless steel screw with washers. The trim pieces at corners are FRP.
Louvers
These are corrugated FRP sheets used for preventing splash out from the cooling tower.
FRP cooling towers makers tell about key designing tricks for a cooling tower to minimize or prevent the LD bacteria development
- The basins installed in the cooling tower need to be intended for minimum water content and are equipped with sloping bottom panels.
- Water should not be in direct contact with sunlight
- There should be no dead zones to prevent accumulation of debris as it is difficult to remove it later.
- There should be minimum drift losses
