overview
This User Manual as well as those offered separately on motors, fans,
Geareducer, couplings, drive shafts, float valves, pumps, etc., are intended to
assure that this cooling tower serves you properly for the maximum possible
time. Since product warrantability may well depend upon your actions, please
read this User Manual thoroughly prior to operation.
This User Manual provides information regarding general cooling tower in-
stallation and operation. Any deviation from, change or modification to, the
User Manual, the original design conditions or the original intended use of the
equipment may result in improper installation and/or operation of the tower.
Any such deviation, change or modification shall be the responsibility of
the party or parties making such deviation, change or modification. SPX
Cooling Technologies, Inc. expressly disclaims all liability for any such deviation,
change or modification. The equipment shall be warranted in accordance with
the applicable SPX Cooling Technologies Certification of Limited Warranty.
If you have questions about the operation and/or maintenance of this cool-
ing tower, and you don’t find the answers in this manual, please contact your
Marley sales representative. When writing for information, or when ordering
parts, please include the serial number shown on the cooling tower nameplate.
Tower Location
Space available around the tower should be as generous as possible to pro-
mote ease of maintenance—and to permit freedom of airflow into and through
the tower. If you have questions about the adequacy of the available space
and the intended configuration of the tower, please contact your Marley sales
engineer for guidance.
Prepare a stable, level support foundation for the tower, utilizing weight, wind
load, and dimensional information appearing on appropriate Marley submittal
drawings. Supports must be level to insure proper operation of the tower.
The cooling tower must be located at such distance and direction
to avoid the possibility of contaminated tower discharge air being
drawn into building fresh air intake ducts. The purchaser should ob-
tain the services of a Licensed Professional Engineer or Registered
Architect to certify that the location of the tower is in compliance
with applicable air pollution, fire, and clean air codes.
