SML Cooling Tower Fill

 

Using cooling tower fill media increases the surface area between water flow and air, optimizing the cooling process of the tower. Your filling may need to be replaced because it became brittle, clogged, or lost its membrane surface during the upgrade process, and your current filling may no longer be the correct type.

Cooling Tower Fill Replacement

Cooling tower packing plays a vital role in cooling tower systems. They require regular maintenance and correct use to ensure high efficiency. However, when maintenance is not going well, the cooling tower fill will use more energy to do its job. In order to save money and ensure the stable operation of the cooling tower, worn cooling tower packing needs to be replaced.

When should cooling tower packing be replaced?

Increased energy consumption
When the fill is not working, the water flowing through the cooling tower will not be cooled. This means more power is needed to do the same job. When your cooling tower's power usage pauses normally, you need to check the filling status of your cooling tower to see if it needs to be replaced.
Calcium accumulation
Lotion water contains large amounts of dissolved solids, including calcium. Calcium in hard water can build up in fillings, causing clogs. When the fill is clogged, air and water cannot pass smoothly, and the cooling tower will not work properly. If normal cleaning and maintenance cannot remove the calcium, the cooling tower packing needs to be replaced in time.
Uneven water distribution
Cooling towers maximize the contact area between cold air and hot water to cool the water. When cooling tower fill is damaged or clogged and prevents water from being distributed properly, performance will be greatly affected. Therefore, cooling tower packing needs to be replaced in time.
Sagging and warping padded bags
If you install a cooling tower fill that is of poor quality or lasts too long, they may warp from heat or sag over time. At that point, the cooling tower fill doesn't perform as well as it originally did. You need to replace the refill pack immediately.
