Drift Eliminator Removal and Replacement:

Eliminator edges can be very sharp and can cut skin if proper pro-
Caution
tection is not used. Always wear gloves and sleeves when handling
eliminator packs.
The drift eliminators may be removed for cleaning, replacement or access to
the distribution system. The eliminators are held in place by a press fit, and are
formed into packs that nest with each other to form a monolithic barrier. It is
recommended that personal protection is used when handling the eliminator
pieces, sharp edges and corners can cause abrasions.
To remove the eliminators, open the upper access door(s) and lift with two
hands on an eliminator section — this will indicate where eliminator packs are
nested. Lift the eliminators at that intersection to free an eliminator pack, and
remove through the access door(s). Pay close attention to the orientation and
placement, they are not symmetrical. Each pack should be replaced at the
location which it was removed.
Proper eliminator pack replacement is essential to fluid cooler

operation. Incorrect installation may result in excessive drift rates
and fan inefficiency! To ensure packs are reinstalled in the correct
orientation, it is recommended that one pack is left in its original
location inside the fluid cooler as a reminder of pack orientation.
Place packs in the fluid cooler in the reverse order of removal.
Packs should nest tightly with each other, leaving a level surface
with no gaps.

Distribution System Maintenance:

To keep your LW fluid cooler operating at peak performance, it may be nec-
essary to clear the spray system of debris or sediment. To access the spray
system, remove one or more of the upper access doors and observe the spray
system with full-flow on the unit. Each nozzle should produce a rectangular
pattern spray that overlaps the adjacent nozzle patterns.
If a nozzle appears clogged or is not producing a cone pattern, remove the
nozzle and clean all surfaces. To remove the nozzle, unscrew it from the spray
pipe. Inspect the nozzle for cleanliness or broken pieces. If the nozzle appears
broken or damaged, consult your Marley representative for replacement parts.
Insert the nozzle by threading it back into the spray pipe.
