Fiber Reinforced Plastic Cooling Towers:

We are developing a fiber reinforced Cooling Towers, which is made with polymer matrix making the tower highly corrosion resistance. fibre reinforced Cooling towers are the perfect solution to the impervious corrosive environment. Their unique properties keep them long lasting even after using thousand times. The fibre reinforced Cooling Tower offered by us help in avoiding the production losses by minimizing the expensive down times and shutdowns. It is being used in marine, aerospace, textile, air conditioning sectors and power plants due to its capability of maximizing the performance of the plant.
Fibre reinforced plastic Cooling Towers are made of FRP ( also fibre-reinforced polymer ) is known for its high corrosion-resistance capabilities. FRP is a composite material.. The fibres are usually glass, carbon, although other fibres such as paper or wood. Pultruded FRP is produced using pultrusion technology, and has become the most common structural material for small cooling towers. It offers lower costs and requires less maintenance compared to reinforced concrete, which is still in use for large structures. FRP cooling tower are commonly used in the aerospace, automotive, marine, and construction industries.

Features:

1.Unitary Construction:
Berg towers are shipped from the factory fully assembled on a structural steel integral base ready for installation and hook-up. Standard 8-inch water outlet connection
2.Shell and Basin:
The Fibber glass Reinforced Polyester (FRP) shell and basin is constructed of chopped glass/resin spray-up using commercial grade type “E” glass fibber, with a is ophthalmic polyester coupling agent. The outer layer is a 15 to 20 mil thick gel coat compounded with ultra- violet inhibitors.
3.Support Base:
Towers are supplied with a structural steel support base, primed and painted. Internal Framing All internal tower sup- ports, fan motor bases, and hardware are constructed of series 304 stainless steel for long life and low maintenance. Inlet Baffles reduce water spray from cross-drafts and bacteria growth due to sunlight exposure.
4.Fill / Wet Deck:
Manufactured from rigged polyvinyl chloride (PVC) developed especially for cooling tower applications where the continuous operating water temperature is 130 degrees or less.
5.Drift Eliminators:
The eliminators are waveform, three pass type constructed of rigid PVC with UV inhibitors. Drift loss percentage is no greater than .002% of the design gpm.
6.Water Distribution System:
The distribution system is constructed of PVC pipe and connections and has no moving parts for maximum reliability. The nozzle features a non-clog design. High Efficiency Fans Rated in accordance with CTI standards
7.Fan Motor:
Available 7-1/2 hp to 15 hp based on capacity. All fan motors are NEMA approved design B, class F insulation, 40°C rise, 1.15 service factor, TEFC type rated for continuous duty at the horsepower required to produce the design water cooling capacity. The motors are single speed, single winding, 230 / 460 / 575 volt, 3 phase, 60 hertz, direct drive, and carry a five (5) year manufacturer’s warranty.
8.Fans:
The fan assembly is designed and rated in accordance with CTI standards to provide maximum efficiency. The fan is a fixed pitch, multi-bladed design.
9.Basin Baffles:
Towers are supplied with basin baffles to increase tower efficiency and minimize water carry-over during windy conditions.

Benefits:

1.Low-cost Energy Usage and Installation.
2.Inhibitor in gel coat to eliminate fibber glass deterioration and pigment fade
3..High efficiency PVC fill.
4.Standard NEMA frame T.E.F.C. motors. No belt or gear reducers, low horsepower.
5.Quiet, efficient, low-speed propeller fans.
6.Stainless steel internal framing and hardware.
7.One-piece water distributor, no moving parts, non-clogging design.
8.PVC drift eliminators.
9.Nonferrous inlet baffles.
10. Colour choices – optional.

Advantages:

1.Excellent chemical and corrosion resistance nature
2.Excellent cost performance
3.High impact strength
4.High rigidity
5.Highly fire resistant
6.Highly temperature resistant
7.Low life cycle cost
8.Outstanding creep and fatigue performance
9.Resistance to sand, acid, sea water, salt, etc.
