      Cross Flow Cooling Towers

About

In a Cross Flow Cooling Towers the induced air moves horizontally while the water falls vertically. … A distribution or a hot water basin consisting of holes or nozzles in its bottom is located near the top of a cross flow tower. Gravity distributes the water through the nozzles uniformly across the fill material. The tower casing is corrosion-free and lightweight

Functions & Features For Cross Flow Cooling Tower:

Structure:

Frame All supporting structures are hot-dip galvanized steel to minimize rusting and corrosion ensuring long life.Casing Made of Fiberglass Reinforced Polyester (FRP), it is lightweight, easy to assemble, no painting required and thus reducing maintenance cost.Inspection doors are furnished to provide convenient access to the interior for inspection, maintenance, adjustment of float valve, cleaning of lift-out strainer and flushing out the sump.

Air Distribution:

Motor The fan motors are totally enclosed weather proof type. The motors are mounted on easily adjustable base located inside the fan stack ensuring lower noise level. Fan Specially designed energy efficient fans are of induced-draft axial type with adjustable pitch.

Water Distribution Fills:

The fill is rigid Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) and is honeycomb design with very large contact surface area. The fills split the air and water into several streams, increasing the time of contact and also heat transfer between water and air. The fill is in modules and is packed in the tower casing without any cutting for curves. The air pressure drop through the fill is negotiable. The fills are available with flute height of 6 mm, 12 mm, and 19 mm with sheet thickness of 1 mm and 1.2 mm.

Applications of Cross Flow Cooling Towers:

Hospitals, Malls, Theaters
Air Conditioned Halls
A/C plant & cold rooms
Chemical industries
Dairy ,Citrus and other food processing industries
Distilleries and Breweries plants
Industries heat process
Oil refineries
