ESW4 Closed Circuit Cooler

EVAPCO's LARGEST and most ENERGY EFFICIENT single cell evaporative cooler

The new ESW4 was designed to maximize capacity and optimize energy efficiency in EVAPCO’s single largest closed circuit cooler cell available. Utilizing EVAPCO’s Crosscool Internal Tube Enhancement and the patented elliptical tube Sensi-Coil Technology, the ESW4 provides equal or greater capacity than competitive units that are larger in footprint and higher in fan motor HP. The optimized ESW4 was developed specifically for high tonnage applications such as data centers, industrial plants, and large HVAC applications, where the end user requires the lowest energy consumption on the fewest amount of units, connections and fans. The ESW4 offers the most models and box sizes in the industry and is designed with IBC Compliant Construction, FM Approved Construction and CTI Certified Performance.

ESW4 cooling tower

  • Independently certified by the Cooling Technology Institute

ESWB_PofO

EVAPCO is proud to be the first to develop a closed circuit cooler with patented Combined Indirect and Direct Cooling technology. The pump is energized, and water circulates up to the water distribution system. The large orifice EvapJet® nozzles evenly distributes water as a thin film over the extended fill surface for maximum cooling efficiency. Simultaneously, the fan system moves large volumes of air through the unit in the opposite direction of the falling water. The air and water contact directly across the fill surface, whereupon a small portion of the spray water evaporates; the warm and saturated air is then discharges from the unit, removing heat from the system. The spray water exits the fill section as a cooled fluid where it is collected by the redistribution basin for even soaking of the full footprint coil. The hot process fluid enters the coil through the bottom coil connection(s). The heat load is rejected to the circulating water that cascades over the coil surface by means of sensible heat transfer
