Air Blast Coolers

Air Blast Cooler sometimes known as Dry Coolers, these are ideally suited for a whole range of cooling applications where closed circuit cooling is desirable and cooling to within 3ºC of the prevailing ambient temperature is acceptable all year round. Air Blast Coolers are a practical and cost effective alternative to Cooling Towers, which by law have to conform to ACOP L8. The costs of conformance are steep and include:


  • Chemical treatment to guard against Legionella
  • Water softening to prevent lime scale formation
  • Treatment and safe disposal of effluent resulting from routine cleaning and draining
  • Water losses and make up due to constant evaporation can also be a significant operational cost.


Features

  • Each will be individually selected to match the load conditions and various configurations are available to meet

space and noise limitations.

  • Single units can be provided in capacities from 5kW to 2000kW and they can be inter-connected to reach many thousands

of kilowatts.

  • Control of the water temperature is regulated, by controlling fan speed, according to the prevailing

ambient temperature.
