EVAPORATIVE FLUID COOLERS
 
   
 
FXV Range
57 models from 5 to 150 l/s
Principle of operation
The fluid to be cooled is circulated inside the tubes of the heat exchange coil. Heat flows from the process fluid through the coil tubes to the water outside which is cascading downward over the tubes. The water is then distributed over the wet deck surface, further cooling the water. Air is drawn down over the coil and through the air inlet louvers, across the wet deck surface causing a portion of the water to evaporate. This evaporation removes the heat from the remaining water. Mist eliminators reclaim water droplets entrained in the air streams. The cooled water flows to the sump where it is pumped over the coil.

Material options
Baltiplus corrosion protection
Baltiplus Corrosion Protection comprises all steel components fabricated from Z 600 galvanised steel with 600 g of zinc per mē coating. Cut edges are protected with a zinc rich paint. All fasteners have a 3-stage protective coating consisting of a zinc phosphate treatment, a zinc rich inorganic resin coating and an aluminium rich organic top coat. The exterior surfaces of the equipment are finished with a coat of polymeric zinc aluminium paint.

Baltibond Corrosion Protection System
The BALTIBOND Corrosion Protection System is applied to individual galvanized steel components prior to assembly. These components are manufactured from Z 600 mill galvanized steel sheets with 600 g of zinc/mē.
After manufacturing the components undergo an industrial cleaning and drying pretreatment process. Immediately after the pretreatment the components are electrostatically coated with a dry, polymeric hybrid thermosetting powder. The coated components are then put through a thermally activated curing process during which the powder is fuse bonded to the substrate. Stringent quality control procedures and regular testing during the coating process assure consistent high quality of the protection system. The fasteners used for assembly have a 3-stage protective coating comprising a zinc phosphate treatment, a zinc rich inorganic resin coating and an aluminum rich organic top coat.
