Main Components of a Water Cooling Towers Manufacturers

Cooling tower, as the name suggests, is a cylindrical tower that helps in rejecting heat from a manufacturing process. It is done either to eliminate process heat or to lower down the working fluid of the procedure. The water cooling towers manufacturers prefer to construct the towers with fiberglass as it offers immense resistivity and longevity. Though the field erected water cooling towers can be constructed with the help of a variety of materials like concrete, redwood, steel, as well as, fiberglass, depending on the location and demand of the clients.

Prime Components of the Cooling Towers

The conjugation of highly efficient components leads to the construction of a reliable and efficient cooling tower. This effectively serves the purpose of the cooling tower and also restricts from any havoc incident. Let’s have a look at the components of the cooling towers along with its functionality:

·        Instrumentation system- includes Flow Meter, Blow Down Rate, Thermocouples, Water Level Switches for hot and cold water basins, oil level indicator switches, and vibration switches.

·      Cooling tower fan motor- is used in some of the industries like petrochemicals and refinery plants to ensure the protection against the explosion that can occur due to the leaky heat exchangers. To protect the fan motors, it is further equipped with Earth fault and overload relay protection systems.

·      Cooling tower nozzles- is mostly made up of plastic that includes polypropylene, glass filled nylon, PVC and ABS plastics. These nozzles are responsible for the equal distribution of the hot water in the cell of the cooling tower.

·      Distribution valves- are used to withstand the various corrosive agents and to regulate the flow of hot water.

·         Gear box- can lower the cooling tower fan speed depending on the requirement.

·         Drive shafts- transmit power from motor’s output shaft to gear’s input shaft.

·         Cooling tower louvers- are made of asbestos and are used to distribute uniform air flow and to keep the circulating water constricted within the cooling tower.

Fan cylinder & fan deck- are used for creating a way of access to the water distribution process and fan deck is the support system of the cylinder.

·      Water distribution piping- goes down below the ground in order to withstand the thrust of the water pressure.

·     Cooling tower fan- is the prime item of the tower that helps the effective operation of the tower.

·       Cooling tower structure- can either be constructed with chemically treated wood or concrete depending on the requirements.

·       Cold water basin- is made up of RCC and stores the cold water from the tower that forms the foundation of the cooling tower.

·       Drift eliminator- helps limit the volume of water escaping into the discharge air. This leads to water loss.

·         Cooling tower fill media- makes the contact of air and water surface area possible.

Conclusion

The cooling tower is one of the most efficient structures that can eliminate the heat during the process of manufacturing. The proficient water cooling towers manufacturers make the proper usage of the aforementioned items during the construction of the cooling tower. This leads to the fruitful production of the material giving priority to the safety of the manpower and property.
