Induced Draft Cooling Tower Model

Model Number: 298

A highly detailed scale model for cooling tower operation and maintenance training.

Overview

DAC Worldwide’s Induced Draft Cooling Tower Model (298) is a highly-detailed scale model of a common open circuit, induced draft, cooling tower, supporting training in the operation and maintenance of cooling towers, as found in utility systems within both industrial facilities and commercial installations. Based on common cooling tower designs similar to those manufactured by Baltimore Aircoil Company, Marley, and others, the product is a complete “to-scale” replication of common cooling tower in use today. Based on a basic opencircuit, induced draft design, the model includes detailing of primary internal components, visible through a transparent acrylic wall and side louvers. This teaching aid complements training courses in industrial utility systems, refinery operations, and building maintenance.

  • Exact to-scale construction throughout
  • Gray ABS and clear acrylic shell for visibility of internal components
  • Transparent acrylic wall and side louvers for internal viewing
  • Detailed exterior with fan stack, fan drive motor, air inlet louvers, piping, supports, siding, handrails, ladders, and access door
  • Detailed interior with representative fan, reducing gear, distribution basin, fill drift eliminators, and cold water basin with sump
  • Durable PVC baseplate for tabletop or display-product mounting
  • Packaged for shipment via parcel service or motor freight
