In industrial facilities such as manufacturing and processing plants as well as mills, forges and refineries, cooling towers often are used to remove heat from machinery, heated process material and fluids, buildings and other sources by exchanging the heat using water or chemical solutions as a coolant.

Check out this special page to find products perfectly suited to help you and your process equipment handle high ambient temperature and humidity. As we head into the critical summer cooling season, be sure you know about products that can help solve cooling challenges.

CleanAire filters are designed to be mounted inline in the exhaust ducting from a fume hood or contaminant source up to 1500 cfm. 

CleanAire filters are designed to be mounted inline in the exhaust ducting from a fume hood or contaminant source up to 1500 cfm. The HEPA and carbon filter packs include a galvanized-steel housing with hinged and gasketed access door to ease filter change-out. Molded-composite resin inlet and outlet plenums and duct-connection collars are sized to meet specification.

Industries across the manufacturing spectrum — whether producing beverages, dairy products, petroleum, chemicals, plastics or electricity, to name a few — generate heat as a byproduct of the manufacturing process.

CleanAire filters are designed to be mounted inline in the exhaust ducting from a fume hood or contaminant source up to 1500 cfm.

In the 1960s, the steel production industry sought a way to filter the cooling water used to cool steel production. During production, both free solid material from the line, and residual oils from previous formation steps, would be on the materials being cooled. 

Steam is essential in the production of many consumables, including dairy products, processed foods, beverages, chemicals and pharmaceuticals. Similar to compressed air, steam often is considered a utility or energy source — generated at a central location and then distributed to various points of use throughout the facility.

Plenty Backflush Filter is designed to keep processes running without manual intervention. Designed specifically for applications on water systems, the filter is offered in stainless steel or cast iron housings in sizes to suit most applications.

Photo shows cooling water pipes after less than one year without filtration. Scale formation reduces the heat transfer rate and increases the water pressure drop through the heat exchanger and pipes.
