Drift eliminator and filler for cooling tower maintenance, loaded, heading to Pinhais, Paraná.

The drift eliminator (also called a drift eliminator) is an essential component in water-cooled cooling towers, responsible for limiting water loss carried by the airflow exiting the tower.
Here is a complete technical summary:

Main Function

During the cooling process, rising air can carry small water droplets with it.
The drift eliminator captures and redirects these droplets back into the tower, reducing water consumption and preventing visible mist.

How It Works

Moist air passes through a set of curved blades and deflectors;
The droplets, by inertia, strike the blades and separate from the air;
The collected water flows back to the tower's recirculation system.
Material

PP (Polypropylene): ideal for higher temperatures and greater chemical resistance;
Benefits

Reduces water loss due to drift to less than 0.005% of total flow;
Prevents wetting of motors, fans, and metal structures;
Reduces corrosion and environmental contamination problems;
Contributes to water savings and increased tower efficiency.
Practical Application

In industrial towers like those at AMG Water Cooling Towers, the eliminator is typically installed above the fill (media) and below the axial fan, ensuring that only dry air is expelled.
