TOWER ISOLATION PF SERIES ELIMINATE FOULING ON COOLING SURFACES Plate and frame type heat exchangers offer more heat transfer in less space. The Conair Tower Isolation PF Series perform with one third to one fifth the surface area of conventional shell and tube heat exchangers for the same application. By isolating the tower water from the plant cooling passages the reduction in preventative maintenance reduces staffing and quickly pays for itself. Model PF 3-60 MAINTENANCE SAVING TOWER WATER ISOLATION Cooling towers, while very efficient in cooling processes, also collect debris and grow dangerous biologicals in the water. The Conair Tower Isolation Heat Exchangers PF Series isolate the contaminated water to the tower, tower pump, filter and heat exchanger only. These components, while still requiring consistent preventative maintenance for peak performance, isolate any biologicals from the rest of the facility. Biocide in the evaporative towers does not flow freely throughout the plant. The PF Series Heat Exchangers are available in 3-degree and 5-degree approach models. Process water can get to within 3° or 5°F {1.6° or 2.8°C} of the tower temperature at a designated day. The 10°F {5.6°C} standard range (difference of inlet and outlet temperatures) works with standard tower designs. Superior heat transfer Get the most heat transfer with the least temperature difference. And keep tower process water to within 3° or 5°F {1.6° or 2.8°C} of the actual tower water at design heat load. True countercurrent flow All heat exchangers perform most efficiently and output the smallest approach with countercurrent flow. Multipass shell and tube types lose some of this effectiveness. Expandable design Many models are expandable to meet increasing loads just by adding plates. The unit can be backflushed to clean, and disassembled to restore original performance after long periods of use. Low pressure drop Pressure drops of 10 psi or less at design keeps pump power losses to a minimum and energy costs low. Reduced mineralization Since plant process water is not continuously concentrated plating of minerals on heat transfer surfaces is significantly reduced and preventative maintenance nearly
