Cooling towers are a critical component of power plant operations, ensuring efficient heat dissipation and maintaining optimal system performance. Given the immense heat generated by power plants, an effective cooling system is essential to prevent overheating, improve efficiency, and extend equipment life. One of the most crucial elements in a […]

Vari-Flow Traveling Screens play a crucial role in debris removal for water intake systems. Designed for adaptability, these screens can be operated in multiple ways to meet the specific needs of different sites. Whether manually operated, controlled via a local start/stop station, or fully automated with an electrical drive, Vari-Flow […]

Cooling towers are designed to remove heat from a building or facility through the process of spraying water down into the tower.  This process extracts waste heat by ejecting it into the atmosphere via evaporation.  Its ability to operate as intended comes down to a simple process, however, it can […]

Conventional distribution valves inside of a cooling tower tend to experience excessive wear from the water’s movement through the system. This process creates what’s known as “chattering.” Chattering occurs when the stem and disc in the valve move due to the water’s turbulence. The more consistently this happens, the sooner […]

There are two types of water screens, stationary and traveling. There are distinct advantages to traveling water screens that not only protect cooling tower systems but also prevent the need for regular maintenance and the resources and downtime that these tasks require.   The most common maintenance and damage issues that […]
