Cooling Tower Film Fills for Counterflow Systems

ThermaCross is a drop-in upgrade for standard 19mm-spaced, cross-fluted fills. When engineering the product, Brentwood developed its patent-pending MicroBoost design to maximize the air-water interface for increased thermal capacity and utilized a more vertical macrostructure for improved fouling resistance.

THERMACROSS OVERVIEW

These design features enable ThermaCross to perform up to 13% better than standard 19mm-spaced products, even matching the performance of 12mm-spaced high efficiency fills at higher fill heights.

BENEFITS

  • Balances thermal performance and pressure drop better than existing 19mm-spaced products
  • MicroBoost design enables versatility for use in any clean water application, such as HVAC, district cooling, and treated industrial processes
  • Available Mechanically Assembled or solvent welded
