What Do Drift Eliminators Do?

Drift eliminators are designed to capture large water droplets caught in the cooling tower air stream. The eliminators prevent the water droplets and mist from escaping the cooling tower.

How does drift eliminator work?

Drift eliminators aid in the removal of water droplets from an airstream in a cooling tower. They work by changing the direction of the airflow and causing the entrained water droplets to impact the walls of the eliminator.

How often should drift eliminators be replaced?

Excessive drift loss occurs if drift eliminators are not fitted correctly; or if drift eliminators are damaged, scaled, dirty, corroded or brittle. They should be removed for inspection and cleaned regularly, every 3 months in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.
