  • Country: Mexico
  • Industry Sector: Energy Industry
  • End user: Federal Electricity Commission
  • Application: Protection of Refrigeration Systems
  • Product: AZUD HELIX AUTOMATIC FT200 AA INDUSTRIAL DLP
  • Flow rate (m3/h): 200

The protection system for CFE’s (Mexico) cooling towers uses AZUD HELIX AUTOMATIC ring filtration to remove solids that hinder optimal heat transfer. Thanks to AZUD HELIX AUTOMATIC ring filtration, energy efficiency is maximized for two reasons:

  1. Within the evaporation unit itself, the energy exchange between the water and air phases is greater when there are no particles or biofilm present.
  2. The head loss experienced by the airflow during forced convection through the evaporator coil is lower, so the fan requires less consumption of energy to circulate the same amount of air.

The Solution

By reducing suspended solids, the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) is lowering its energy consumption by optimizing heat exchange in the evaporation section of its cooling towers.
