The video begins by showcasing the sizes of the three cooling tower models side-by-side with computer-generated schematics of the towers and a life-size human figure standing next to each tower to provide context.
Legionnaires' disease is a severe form of lung infection caused by exposure to bacteria known as Legionella. Found naturally in freshwater environments like lakes and streams, Legionella becomes a health hazard when it grows unabated in water that is not properly treated. While this can include shower heads, hot tubs, and hot water heaters, cooling towers are often found to be the source of outbreaks.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)-registered BioSpray® Tower kills 99.9 percent of Legionella pneumophila when it is properly applied to hard, non-porous surfaces like cooling towers.
To facilitate faster installation and safer assembly processes, the Everest arrives at the site in modules that are pre-constructed in a controlled factory environment.
A new Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) study involving 196 cooling towers nationwide found that 84 percent contained Legionella DNA, indicating that the dangerous bacteria that causes a severe, even fatal type of pneumonia were present or had been at some point.
This system was designed to improve stability, simplify tower automation, and reduce energy costs. It ships preprogrammed and has a user-friendly screen interface that enables easy field configuration.
Bob and Tim are on their way to a spring start up for a chiller in an office building. It is a 100-ton water cooled reciprocating chiller with the chiller in the basement and the cooling tower on the roof.
This system uses electronic monitoring to evaluate the delivery of cooling tower water treatment and its effectiveness in keeping the control parameters within specified limits.
HVAC systems play a crucial role in many industrial cooling applications. These systems – composed of cooling towers, chillers and air handlers – are used to cool areas where high heat loads can shut down critical processes. This could stem from machinery that generates extensive heat, or where cooling and ventilation are required to protect temperature- and humidity-sensitive equipment.
