Typical applications
Removes condenser heat from a water-cooled chiller or cools a process water circuit. This model suits medium-sized industrial plants.
How to choose a cooling tower
For a water-cooled chiller, the tower must reject the condenser heat, which is roughly the cooling load plus the compressor power: Qcond ≈ Qevap + Wcomp. The tower has to do this at the design wet-bulb temperature of your site; the closer you want the return water to the wet-bulb temperature (the approach), the larger the tower. Send us your project conditions and we will check the selection.
Frequently asked questions
What does the ton rating of this tower mean?
It is the cooling rating stated in the Alborz catalog. For an exact comparison with other towers, ask us for the heat rejection in kW at your design wet-bulb temperature.
Do I need a cooling tower with an air-cooled chiller?
No. Air-cooled chillers reject heat with their own fans. A cooling tower is used with water-cooled chillers or to cool a process water circuit directly.
