FRP Cooling Towers
Fiberglass-reinforced-plastic cooling towers combine a corrosion-resistant enclosure with efficient evaporative heat rejection. HACST offers counterflow, crossflow and round bottle-type arrangements for HVAC and industrial circulating-water systems.
HACST open cooling tower configuration for industrial water-cooling applications.
Compact footprint and vertical air-water flow for general industrial and HVAC duties.
Service-friendly layout with gravity water distribution and accessible fill sections.
Round FRP tower range for compact open-loop water-cooling projects.
Why specify FRP construction
- Resistance to many outdoor moisture and corrosion conditions
- Low casing weight compared with many metal alternatives
- Molded panels and replaceable internal components
- Suitable for modular single-cell or multi-cell layouts
- Available with project-specific fans, motors, fill and drift eliminators
Selection and installation factors
FRP casing alone does not determine service life or thermal performance. Review structural frame material, fasteners, fill type, water distribution, fan drive, drift control, basin access and fire-performance requirements. Maintain clear air inlets and discharge to prevent recirculation, and provide a complete water-treatment program.
