PFE

Low energy consumption

• Evaporative cooling for system-wide energy saving at lower operating temperatures.
• Axial fan uses half the energy of similar centrifugal fan units.
• Factory tested high efficiency coil.
• High efficiency fan motors

Low noise

• PFE features low noise axial fans. To reduce noise even further, choose for Whisper Quiet fans.
• Factory designed, tested and rated sound attenuation is available on the discharge for further noise reduction.
• Water silencers achieve noise levels close to those of crossflow towers. Water silencers come always with Whisper Quiet fans.

Easy to maintain

• The PFE closed circuit cooling tower is easier to maintain than other induced draft counterflow cooling towers.
• BranchLok water distribution - each branch removable for easy cleaning.
• Combined inlet shields for easy no-tool removal.
• Motor adjusters: externally accessible and locking wrench for easy motor alignment and belt tensioning.
• Full cold water basin access when removing the combined inlet shields.
• Fans easy accessible via sliding access door.
• Optional clean out port helps remove silt and sludge from the cooling tower basin.
• Removable suction strainer anti-vortex hood.
• Check out our FXVE and FXV-D cooling towers with unrivalled inspection and maintenance features.

Dry operation and plume abatement

• Switch off the spray system during periods of reduced load and operate dry. Upgrade your PFE with a finned discharge coil for even longer periods of dry operation. Two extra avantages of the finned coil are the reduction or complete elimination of plume, and a continuous water saving during wet operation.

Operational safety

• Closed loop or circuit tower, no airborne contaminants enter and foul the system.
• Easy-clean and easy-inspect PFE towers reduce hygiene risks from bacteria (e.g. Legionella) or biofilm inside. 
• Dry operation possible in winter time with optional finned coil.
• Self-cleaning cold water basin and fill above sloped basin to flush out dirt and debris
• Combined inlet shields block sunlight to prevent biological growth in the tower, filter the air and stop water splashing outside.

Ship and install PFE easily

• The leak-free InterLok system means swift PFE cooling tower on-site assembly. Install the basin on the upper section with no sealer tape in between!
• Compact PFE footprint – perfect for confined spaces.
• Container shipment often possible!
