Cross flow cooling tower offer excellent, easy accessibility of all key components such as fill, drift eliminators, mechanical equipment and water distribution system. This takes out a lot of the hassle for your maintenance personnel.
Tipo Heat Exchangers Cooling Towers’ cross flow cooling tower are available in various cell sizes and various combinations of components, in order to meet your specific application requirements and offer you the most effective value.A cooling tower is a specialized heat exchanger in which air and water are brought into direct contact in order to reduce the water’s temperature. As this occurs, a small volume of water is evaporated, reducing the temperature of the water being circulated.Water, which has been heated by an industrial process or in an air-conditioning condenser, is pumped to the cooling tower and flows through nozzles, spraying water onto the material called “fill,” which slows the flow of water through the cooling tower, and exposes as much water surface as possible for maximum air-water contact. As the water falls down through the cooling tower, it is exposed to moving air, which is being pulled through the tower by an induced draft fan.
Crossflow Cooling Towers At-a-Glance
- Classic, proven design
- Excellent, easy access to all key components minimizes hassle for maintenance personnel
- Wide choice of models, cell sizes and components
- Choice of wood or fiberglass composite structural materials.
In crossflow towers the water flows vertically through the fill while the air flows horizontally, across the flow of the falling water. Because of this, air does not have to pass through the distribution system, permitting the use of gravity flow hot water distribution basins mounted at the top of the unit above the fill. These basins are universally applied on all crossflow towers.
