Cooling Towers
Our cooling towers use evaporative heat transfer to remove process heat from industrial and commercial systems. Using water's latent heat of evaporation, these systems achieve cold water temperatures 5-8F above ambient wet-bulb temperature. Proprietary MarleyGard filtration systems reduce maintenance requirements by 40% while improving water conservation metrics across data center, manufacturing, and HVAC applications.
Fluid Coolers
Closed-circuit fluid coolers combine evaporative cooling with sealed tube circuits to protect process fluids from contamination. The OlympusV series adiabatic coolers use mist pre-cooling to maintain efficiency in arid environments while reducing annual water consumption by 20%. These systems are ideal for food processing plants and pharmaceutical facilities requiring sterile cooling environments.
Evaporative Condensers
Evaporative condensers directly cool refrigerant gases through evaporative heat exchange. SGS industrial condensers use laser-welded construction to handle ammonia refrigerants at pressures up to 500 psi. These systems achieve 15% greater efficiency vs. conventional air-cooled units while maintaining compliance with ASME pressure vessel codes for chemical processing applications.
Water Management
MarleyGard water management systems use conductivity controllers and basin filters to optimize cycles of concentration. This technology reduces makeup water demand by 30% and blowdown volumes by 45% while maintaining NACE corrosion control standards. System integration with BACnet interfaces enables real-time water quality monitoring for LEED-certified facilities.
Plume Abatement
Hybrid plume abatement systems combine dry and wet cooling sections to minimize visible plume emissions. The NCWD tower design reduces annual water loss by 20% through top-mounted dry coils that pre-cool return water. These systems meet local nuisance regulations in urban areas while maintaining 95% thermal efficiency for power generation facilities.
Questions
How do evaporative cooling systems contribute to LEED certification?
Our systems earn LEED credits through ASHRAE 90.1-compliant efficiency (40-400 gpm/hp), water conservation (20% reduction with hybrid towers), and BIM integration for sustainable design.
What maintenance advantages do MarleyGard systems offer?
MarleyGard filtration reduces basin cleaning frequency by 50% and extends maintenance intervals through automated conductivity control and physical contaminant removal.
Can cooling towers operate efficiently in desert climates?
Yes. Our adiabatic systems maintain 90% efficiency at 15% relative humidity using OlympusV mist pre-cooling technology and copper coil heat exchangers.
How do hybrid cooling towers reduce water consumption?
Hybrid NCWD towers use dry section pre-cooling to reduce annual water usage by up to 20% while maintaining thermal performance through variable frequency drive controls.
What safety certifications apply to your products?
All systems meet ASME Section VIII pressure vessel requirements, OSHA compliance, and ship with material safety data sheets for chemical treatment programs.
How does copper coil technology improve cooling efficiency?
Copper coils increase thermal conductivity by 30% compared to steel. Recold fluid coolers with copper coils achieve 15% greater heat transfer efficiency in ammonia refrigeration systems.
