TK Series

STRUCTURE

Each tower consists of two or more separate cooling modules and a single fan section. The cell can be completed with the air inlet section and with the cold water basin. The reticular steel structure is simple, strong, lightweight and it uses open profile sections. The upper part is flat and walkable.

FAN SECTION

The TK Series towers have one or more ventilation units, each consisting of an electric motor, installed outside the humid air flow, and a vertical axial fan with high performance blades. The connection between the motor and the fan is made through an orthogonal reduction gear and a dynamically balanced transmission shaft.
The FRP fan stack is supplied in separate sections to be bolted during the erection activities.

DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM

The cooling tower is equipped with its own inlet flange. Spray nozzles are secured on the water distribution system by means of an adapter with threaded connection. Spray nozzles can be selected according to the project water flow rate, thus guaranteeing the best performances. Spray nozzles are anti-clogging type.

FILLING SYSTEM

The filling system is made up of several packs to form a section characterized by a high surface/volume ratio in order to improve the heat exchange capacity of the machine.
Depending on the working conditions, the packs can be supplied in different configurations with different geometries.

FILM filling
ILMED IMPIANTI has designed and developed new “FILMED” filling packs, with an exclusive and very effective design, which work on the “film” principle. They are manufactured in PVC or PP, with diagonal or vertical channels
HYBRID filling
The TR.U.S.T. (Tridimensional Ultimate Splash Type) filling system consists of modular elements, manufactured in high-thickness polypropylene, which work on the “SPLASH” principle. Ilmed Impianti has designed this special filling system for polluted water with high levels of suspended solids. The modular feature facilitates the handling and cleaning during maintenance. The TR.U.S.T. System is the natural evolution of the traditional grid system, thus defining new levels of strength, ease of installation, performance and durability.

DRIFT ELIMINATORS

The drift eliminators are made up of modular elements, in PVC or PP sheets.
The efficiency of the separator is excellent, such as to limit water losses due to dragging to a value below 0.005% of the circulating flow.

LOUVERS AND WATER BASIN

Made in polypropylene with a honeycomb structure, louvers are designed for induced draft counter flow cooling towers. They mainly perform two functions:
- to channel the incoming air flow,
- to eliminate the water splash-out from the tower.

Depending on the application, the basin and louvers can be made of different materials. The basin collects the process water. Thanks to its outlet flanges, the basin can be connected directly to the utilities. Its bottom is smooth and inclined in order to allow the complete water drainage during emptying and to prevent the formation of biological agents, such as legionella.

Depending on the customer's needs, louvers and basins can be excluded from the supply.
