Creative Cooling Tower

DRIFT ELIMINATORS

The droplet eliminator is able to remove the water droplet from the airstream avoiding to get water accumulation downstream of it, in the duct or inside and air handling units providing in this way also higher air quality removing possible causes of corrosion or growth of bacteria and mildew. It is designed to capture large water droplets caught in the cooling tower air stream.

It aids in the removal of water droplets from air stream in a cooling tower. They work by changing the direction of the airflow and causing the entrained water droplets to impact the walls of the eliminator.

The cooling tower industry uses drift rate to compare drift eliminator performance, a relationship that correlates droplet capture efficiency to the water circulation rate in a tower.

The drift eliminator is one of the cooling tower parts it is used to minimize the amount of process water loss within the cooling tower for resource usage efficiency as well as keeping an eye on environmental concerns.

CREATIVE COOL TOWERS drift eliminators are specifically designed to achieve maximum drift removal efficiency in both crossflow and counter flow tower applications with various product options available to minimize pressure drop, drift loss, cost or a combination of all three. In counterflow style cooling tower the drift eliminators are fitted horizontally near the top of the tower & in crossflow cooling towers they are fitted vertically on the inside of the tower.

Cellular Drift Eliminators are made from PVC material that meets CTI standard 136 and UV protected. These PVC compounds have outstanding resistance to weather exposure, and are nearly impervious to chemical degradation by alkalis and acids, grease, fats, oils and biological attack. PVC has an excellent fire rating due to its self- extinguishing characteristics.

Unlike other drift eliminators Creative Cool Towers cellular drift eliminators have significantly lower pressure drop than dual purpose eliminators. In the crossflow cellular drift eliminators, they provide an upward flow path and a steep water drainage angle that directs the collected drift back to the wet section of the tower even when impacted by water spray.

CCT-100 Drift Eliminators contains rods that run through the blades to insure solid construction. Four rivets are used on the end caps bringing more strength that’s two mor rivets per eliminator than our competitors product. The CCT-100 can be pressure washed so it has less adherence of dirt, slime and algae unlike other eliminators. Standard sizes in stock and custom sizes are available. The CCT-100 Drift eliminator is guaranteed against corrosion for the life of your tower. The eliminators can be supported at a spans as high as 1800mm. Made out of UV resistant UPVC confirming to standards set by CTI-STD 136, the CCT-100 drift eliminator uses the 3-pass system to air efficiently out of the drift eliminator while restricting the drift loss to less than 0.05% of circulating water.

FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES

Uniquely designed notches on the surface of the blade, positioned at the point on the drift eliminator blade where the air changes direction advances the principles of drift elimination.
Not only do the drift droplets stay on the surface of the blade due to inertial forces but also as the drift laden air enters the drift eliminator assembly , the notch on the bottom surface of the blade entraps the drift droplets while causing minimal resistance to the circulating air.
The air then changes direction to follow the sinusoidal path of the drift eliminator while the remaining drift droplets continue in their original direction where they are trapped by the notch on the inner side of the drift eliminator.

The eliminators can be supported at spans as high as 1800mm. Made out of UV resistant UPVC confirming to standards set by CTI-STD136, the SP-146 drift eliminator uses the 3-pass system to air efficiently out of the drift eliminator while restricting the drift loss to less than 0.002% of circulating water.

FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES

The outgoing air is first guided on to the surface of the drift eliminators. This drift laden air then traverses the upward path of the drift eliminator. At the point of the first direction change DrifEl146 introduces a small water entrapment groove. A majority of water droplets are trapped at this notch and channel back into the system.
Unlike other drift eliminators where large water entrapment areas lead to increase in pressure drop, the path to air velocity remains sinusoidal thereby introducing little to no additional pressure drop at this point.
The air with the remaining drift droplets undergo another direction change and encounter the surface of the adjacent blade. The system continues to work on the principle of inertial separation. At the exit of the drift eliminator, the air undergoes a third direction change while the water droplets encounter a second notch, which entraps a majority of the drift droplets and brings them back into the system.
