Evaporative condensers are heat exchangers commonly used in industrial refrigeration and process cooling. They condense refrigerant by spraying water over a tube bundle while fans draw air through the unit, using evaporation to remove heat. These units are efficient for large-capacity systems in warm climates but require water treatment, corrosion-resistant materials, and routine checks of nozzles, fans, and basins to maintain performance and prevent fouling or scale.
Check rated capacity and refrigerant compatibility, tube bundle condition, signs of corrosion or pitting, fan and motor condition, spray nozzles and distribution system, water basin integrity, and available maintenance records or performance tests.
Drain all water, secure or remove fans and motors, protect the tube bundle and coil from transport damage, tag electrical and piping connections, note dimensions and weight for lifting equipment, and use a carrier experienced with heavy HVAC equipment.
Implement water treatment and weekly basin inspections, clean nozzles and strainers monthly, check fan bearings and belts regularly, descale tubes as needed, and perform an annual full inspection including coil pressure testing and motor electrical checks.
