14
11.0 Access:
11.1 A large galvanized steel, rectangular
access door shall be located on both
endwalls for entry into the cold water
basin and fan plenum area. Access doors
shall be a minimum of 24" wide and 42"
tall and shall be operable from inside as
well as outside of the fluid cooler.
12.0 Collection Basin:
12.1 The collection basin shall be G-235
heavy-gauge galvanized steel assembled
with bolted connections. Tap screws shall
not be allowed. Suction connections
shall be equipped with galvanized debris
screens. A factory-installed, float-operat-
ed, mechanical makeup valve and waste-
water blowdown line shall be included. An
overflow and drain connection shall be
provided in each cell of the fluid cooler.
The basin shall include a depressed
section into which accumulated particle
debris can be flushed to permit cleaning.
The basin floor adjacent to the depressed
section shall slope toward the depressed
section to prevent buildup of debris under
the coil area.
12.2 Recirculation pump(s) shall be mounted
to the collection basin in conjunction with
a suction assembly. Recirculation piping
shall be schedule 40 PVC. A blowdown
line with metering valve shall be con-
nected directly to the fluid cooler overflow.
13.0 Warranty:
13.1 The fluid cooler shall be free from defects
in materials and workmanship for a period
of eighteen (18) months from the date of
shipment.
■ Access doors on other manufacturer’s towers may be 18" wide or smaller,
which is unreasonably small for a human being. Specifying the size of the door
will cause those bidders to take exception, alerting you to a potential mainte-
nance headache. Two doors are standard on all MH Fluid Coolers—one in each
endwall.
Location of the coil in the lower portion of the MH Fluid Cooler makes it much
easier to access for cleaning and inspection.
