SPX unveils new cooling tower
01 November 2020
SPX Cooling Technologies, a full-line, full-service industry leader in the design and manufacture of evaporative cooling towers and air-cooled heat exchangers, has introduced its new Marley MH Element Fluid Cooler.
An induced-draft, crossflow closed-circuit cooling tower, Marley is suitable for heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC), industrial and process cooling applications.
Because of its hybrid operation and high-efficiency components, Marley delivers more thermal capacity with a smaller footprint and lower fan power. It is the most efficient in its class, it adds.
SPX Cooling points out the new model combines cooling tower and heat exchanger functions into one system.
The process fluid is contained in a clean, closed loop, protecting it from outside contamination. The fluid cooler’s hybrid design uses a combination of fill media and prime surface coils, offering significantly improved performance compared to conventional closed-circuit coolers. Compared to fluid coolers using traditional HDG coils, the MH Element Fluid Cooler provides 15 per cent more thermal capacity, is 20 per cent lighter weight per footprint, requires 35 per cent less fluid volume and uses 35 per cent less fan power, the company claims.
Its high-performance copper coils offer seven times more thermal conductivity and can be drained, extending service life with its superior corrosion resistance, said a company spokesman.
