Modular Cooling Towers - GEA Polacel XT Series

Cross-flow Modular Cooling Tower

The Polacel cross flow cooling tower is quiet and economical, and has a high cooling capacity. The modular system can be easily adjusted to suit cooling requirements and the space available. The cooling towers have optimal performance and run problem-free. The consi-derable savings in water usage (95%+), and the exceptionally low noise level make the economical crossflow cooling towers the best choice for both man and the environment.

Structural qualities

The advanced design engineering has also resulted in a number of special structural advantages:

• Only a minimum number of support points are necessary as a result of the self-supporting foundations and the high internal rigidity.
• Where possible, fully portable and installed ready to go.
• The Polacel frost-proof polyester water pan can withstand sub-zero temperatures. Essential for free-cooling applications.
• Due to their low profile, cross flow cooling towers present fewer aesthetic problems.
• The expandable modular system has virtually no limitations in terms of shape and size.
• All structural design principles are analysed and tested in advance using dynamic calculations and compu-ter studies.

Durable and reliable

GEA designs and manufactures cooling towers that have a long life and require a minimum of maintenance. This performance is achieved by a careful choice of materials - stainless steel combined with glass fibre rein-forced polyester and plastics - the exceptionally sound design and the considerable experience of our engi-neers.

'Cheap and cheerful' solutions such as fans with a V-belt drive, or painted panels, are avoided. The result is a cooling tower that is low maintenance, economical and able to deliver a consistently high quality, problem-free performance.
