The LSWB Closed Circuit Cooler features the highly successful EVAPCO V-belt drive system engineered for heavy-duty operation. All drive system components including the fans, motors, sheaves, and belts are located in the dry entering air stream and are suitable for the most severe duty closed circuit cooler applications.

 
Fan Motors

All EVAPCO Closed Circuit Coolers come standard with premium efficient, inverter capable fan motors that can be used with variable frequency drive (VFD) systems for precise capacity control. VFD systems can control the speed of a fan motor by modulating the voltage and frequency of the motor input electrical signal. When connected to a building automation system a VFD can receive signals and vary the fan speed to meet demand loads. This popular method of capacity control can yield significant energy savings.

Evapco offers two-speed fan motors as an option for alternative capacity control. In periods of lightened loads or reduced wet bulb temperatures the fans can operate at low speed providing about 60% of full speed capacity yet consuming only about 15% of full speed power. In addition to the energy savings the sound levels of the unit can be greatly reduced by operating at low speed. These motors do not require the use of VFD systems however they can only operate at two speeds: full or low.

Pony motors are available as another capacity control method. Pony motors are smaller fan motors for use in times of reduced loading. The pony motor is typically 1/4 of the HP of the primary motor and can significantly reduce energy requirements.
