Summary of Contents for SPX Cooling Technologies Cooling Tower 160

  • Page 1 Marley Class 160 Cooling Tower...
  • Page 2 / The Marley Difference / You’ll enjoy single source responsibility and reliability because we design and manufacture virtually all major cooling tower components. All Marley components are designed and selected to be part of an integrated system. For example, the spray pattern from nozzles and the pressure drop through drift eliminators both affect a fill’s heat transfer capacity.
  • Page 3: Construction And Components

    / Construction and Components / Fill/Louvers/Drift Eliminators ■ Marley high-performance film fill is the heart of every Class 160 tower. A repeating chevron pattern provides the wetted surface and air turbulence necessary for proper heat transfer, while minimizing resistance to airflow so you’ll save on fan power.
  • Page 4 Class 160 towers offer the benefits of adjustable pitch propeller type fans. All fans used on Class 160 towers include hollow GRE (glass-reinforced epoxy) blades and epoxy-coated cast iron or galvanized steel hubs. Blades are adjustable in pitch, so you can take full advantage of rated horsepower or adjust the pitch to compensate for unusual jobsite restrictions.
  • Page 5 The primary structural elements of all Class 160 towers are the nominal 4″ x 4″ columns spaced on 4′-0″ longitudinal centers. A system of nominal 4″ x 4″ tower diagonals carries loads in both tension and compression to heavy-duty hot dip galvanized steel anchor plates.
  • Page 6 / Operating and Environmental Considerations / Cooling towers are usually selected to produce a specific cold water temperature at the higher summertime wet-bulb temperatures. During the remainder of the year, the cooling tower is capable of producing much colder water. Unless your system will benefit from the coldest possible water temperature, you may want to consider controlling cold water temperatures to higher levels.

  • Page 11: Available Options

    / Available Options / Cell Partition Options ■ Every Class 160 tower includes plenum partitions and hot water distribution basin partitions between adjacent cells. Plenum partitions keep air from entering an operating cell through an adjacent idle fan—assuring consistent thermal performance.
