Packaged Cooling Towers
EWK Cooling Tower range
The iconic EWK cooling tower is manufactured in a robust, durable and compact glass reinforced polyester casing.
EWK cooling towers have truly stood the test of time and thousands of these units are still successfully operational after many decades of reliable service.
Components
Casing
The cooling tower casing is available with or without a water basin, and is made of glass reinforced polyester. All fasteners are from stainless steel. The standard colour is grey, however other RAL colours are available on request.
Drift eliminator
Profiled plastic elements (PVC, Polypropylene or ABS) prevent water droplets from being carried out of the cooling tower by the air flow.
Water distribution system
Self-cleaning, full-cone plastic nozzles are attached onto the water distribution pipes. These ensure a uniform distribution which is key to the performance of the cooling tower.
Fill
Various cooling tower fills are available and are selected to best suit the process conditions (both temperature and water quality). Fill materials are generally either made of PVC or polypropylene but other materials to suit higher temperature applications are also available.
Cooling components
The cooling components are carefully selected to ensure that there is minimal corrosion and no degradation (rotting).
Dark Room Louvres
The cooling towers are generally supplied with Dark Room type air inlet louvres which are made of plastic (PVC or Polypropylene), and prevent water from splashing out. These can easily be dismantled for inspection and cleaning purposes.
Sieve/basket strainer
The sieve/basket strainer is attached to the cooling tower outlet, and prevents dirt from entering the water system.
Make-up Float valve
The float valve is connected to the make-up water supply.
