I would like to ask the experts: are there any successful cases of closed-type cooling towers being used in Class A workshops in chemical companies? The company wants to build several closed-type cooling towers, but they plan to place them inside Class A workshops. Is it sufficient to use CT4 explosion-proof motors for these purposes?
A closed-loop water system is available; explosion-proof electrical equipment is required in Class A workshops. It is necessary to have the design institute determine what type of explosion protection is needed
Is this outside the workshop? We want to install a small one inside the workshop, near the production equipment:lol
Cooling towers are primarily used for heat exchange; since air has a low specific heat capacity, they are usually placed outdoors to allow air flow for effective cooling. Placing them inside a workshop results in poor heat exchange, increased humidity within the workshop, and higher requirements for explosion prevention.
I think we should find a way to put it on the roof; otherwise, the noise and heat issues will be unbearable
No, although it is a closed-type cooling tower, its external circulation system is of the open type; as a result, a large amount of water vapor will escape. This will lead to corrosion of the surrounding pipe racks and equipment, which would be counterproductive.
It’s possible; let the design institute handle the design. It depends on the category – it doesn’t have to be CT4
It is recommended to place it outside; it was mentioned upstairs that the noise of the fan, the humid and hot air, and even water can make the area a complete mess
Thank you to all the experts for helping me understand this: handshake
