We provide droplet eliminators in different shape designs in order to reduce the construction cost in smaller cooling tower units basically by optimization of the support system of eliminator sector. The static of DE elements improved by adjustable foil thickness and free selected sequence of flat foils. Our Standard design is produced with a ratio of 1:7 flat to corrugated sequence. On request we produce nested DE elements with one flat and one corrugated ending sheet per element.

Small and medium size cooling towers demand efficient drift eliminator systems to significantly reduce water losses caused by upstreaming air above the cooling fill. These film drift eliminator elements are easy to install and can be dismantled and cleaned for further use in the cooling tower.

As a by product of the cooling tower having promoted the most intimate product between water and air in the fill, water droplets become entrained in the leaving air stream. Collectively, these solid water droplets are called “drift” and are not to be confused with the pure water vapor with which the effluent air stream is saturated, nor with any droplets formed by condensation of that vapor. The composition and quality of drifts is that of the circulating Water flowing through the tower.

Drift eliminators remove entrained from eh discharge air by causing it to make sudden changes in direction. The resulting centrifugal force separates the drop of water from the air, depositing them on the eliminator surface, from which they flow back into the tower.

Eliminators are normally classified by the number of directional changes, or “passes”, with an increase in the number of passes usually accompanied by an increase in pressure drop. They may consist of two or more passes of spaced slats positioned in frames or may be moulded into honeycomb configuration with labyrinth passages.
