What is a Cooling Tower Valve?
Cooling tower valves are devices designed to control, regulate, distribute, allow, or disallow the passage of water through certain parts of the cooling tower’s system. The different valves throughout a cooling tower system play an important role in their performance and the overall operation of your facility. The types of valves needed will depend on the flow capacity and the size of piping in the cooling tower. Temperature and pressure are also critical considerations when it comes to valve selection.
Which Valve is Used in Cooling Tower?
Float valves, or float switches, are essential for maintaining proper water levels inside a cooling tower. These valves are designed for cooling applications that rely on water being cooled by contact with the air.
Cooling Tower Valve Performance
Flow control valves have a simple & reliable design and are available in the capacity range of 300 to 2200 m3/h and size ranges of 150 to 300 NB. They are built specifically for cooling tower use and ensure low head losses. They are made of heavy-duty cast iron bodies and have a stainless steel valve stem. We also coat our control valves with a layer of the protective coating that resists corrosion.
New Anti-microbial Cooling Tower From Delta Cooling Towers
Delta Cooling Towers, a globally recognized leader in the manufacture of corrosion-resistant cooling towers, has added a new dimension to its product line. Cooling towers for industrial and commercial applications are now available with construction features and materials that significantly inhibit the growth of microorganisms in the tower fill and shell.
Microbial growth has long been a concern of cooling tower operators. The environment within a tower, continuously wet and warm, provides ample opportunity for microbial propagation. The new anti-microbial cooling towers make use of HDPE resin that is fully compounded (not just on the surface) with an anti-microbial agent to provide the corrosion protection for which Delta is known, along with resistance to biofilm growth. The fill in the tower also provides the same level of resistance to microorganism growth. The corrosion-resistant materials used in the construction of Delta towers allow the use of more aggressive chemical treatment than would be recommended with metal cooling towers.
The new Delta Cooling Towers have some distinct advantages for health and safety, as well as an extended operating lifetime. Reach out to a product application specialist. Get all the details on the new anti-microbial cooling towers and share your HVAC and industrial cooling challenges to get solutions.
