Keeping Plants Running at Peak Performance
Maintenance engineers and supervisors know how critical cooling towers are to keeping plants running efficiently. When cooling systems fail, the results are costly downtime, reduced productivity, and added stress on already demanding operations. In the Midwest, power plants, utilities, and industrial facilities also face unique risks from severe weather events. Having a cooling system designed to survive these challenges is essential.
EvapTech FM Approved Field Erected Cooling Towers provide unmatched protection and performance, giving you confidence that your plant can keep running, even under extreme conditions.
Why FM Approval Matters
FM Approval is a mark of quality and reliability that goes beyond standard performance testing. EvapTech’s Series ES and ESP towers are FM Approved for fire performance, natural hazard resistance, seismic testing, and overall quality. For maintenance teams, this means the cooling system is proven to withstand critical risks without the need for additional fire suppression systems or backup redundancy.
One standout feature of the Series ESP towers is their ability to continue operating at up to 75 percent of their thermal design capacity after a fire. That level of resilience helps eliminate single points of failure and keeps processes moving.
Designed for Reliability and Durability
EvapTech cooling towers are engineered to address the key concerns of plant maintenance teams:
- Reduce unplanned downtime by keeping cooling systems operational during and after fire or weather events.
- Lower maintenance and insurance costs with FM Approved designs that do not require separate fire protection systems.
- Reliable thermal performance with proven heat transfer technology and extremely low drift rates.
- Premium durability with fiberglass and concrete construction designed to withstand high winds, flying debris, and storm damage.
- Flexible configurations with counterflow, crossflow, in-line, parallel, and back-to-back layouts available to fit plant requirements.
Built for Midwest Conditions
Power and industrial plants across the Midwest face a range of environmental challenges, from tornadoes to ice storms. EvapTech’s FM Approved Field Erected Cooling Towers are designed with these conditions in mind, offering rugged construction and performance that plant operators can count on when it matters most. With U.S. manufacturing and quality audits in place, every system is built to the highest standards of reliability.
