OVERLAND PARK, Kan. — SPX Cooling Technologies, Inc. has outfitted an 18-foot mobile trailer with displays of field-erected cooling tower components. Visitors to the trailer can see the quality and design of Marley components compared with other original equipment manufacturer (OEM) versions in side-by-side, hands-on displays.
The mobile trailer features several Marley innovations, including the new M Series Geareducer®, Comp-DS™ Driveshaft, HP 7000 Fan, and a range of heat transfer fill types. The new M Series Geareducer features gears of high-strength, case-hardened alloy steel machined to American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA) Quality Class 9, and above. Designed to fit into non-Marley cooling towers for easy replacement, the M Series has heavy-duty double row bearings for 100,000 hours of life or more. To further extend service life, its finned exterior and large oil passageways help maintain lower oil temperatures. The new Geareducer operates without the need for oil pumps, filters, or coolers.
