Product Description
Mach Cooling’s basinless liquid cooling towers, part of the AFW series, are energy-efficient cooling solutions designed for industrial and commercial applications. Featuring a basinless design that utilizes existing cold water basins, these towers offer a lifespan of 15-20 years with proper maintenance. Constructed with high-strength FRP materials, they ensure corrosion resistance, reduced installation costs, and a compact footprint. Ideal for steel, chemical, power, and HVAC systems, they provide reliable cooling with low noise and minimal water loss. Compare with our square counter flow cooling towers for alternative configurations.
The basinless liquid cooling tower operates using a counter-flow mechanism for efficient heat exchange:
