The final element in the upper part of the cooling tower are moisture eliminators which strip the entrained water
droplets from the leaving air stream. EVAPCO's patented eliminator insures that drift loss will be minimized. The
eliminators are approximately 5" deep (127mm) , spaced on 1" (25,4mm) centers. They incorporate a hooked leaving
edge designed to direct the discharge air stream away from the fans to help eliminate recirculation of hot,
saturated air back into the fan inlets.
The air discharge side of the cooling tower is the most corrosive and most difficult area to clean and refinish.
To provide the greatest protection in this area, the drift eliminators are made of inert polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The
PVC material will effectively eliminate corrosion of this vital components and is specially treated to resist ultraviolet light.
The eliminators are assembled in easily handled sections to facilitate removal. This will expose the entire upper portion
of the unit and water distribution system for periodic inspection.
The LSTB Cooling Tower product line
is highly efficient design constructed for long life and minimum maintenance. It is the ideal choice for forced draft replacement
applications, low sound and indoor installations. The LSTB engineered design features are described below.
