Geared Systems
Mechanical drive components are the core of a cooling tower’s fan system, responsible for converting motor power into airflow.
This airflow is what facilitates the evaporative cooling process. A well-maintained drive system is essential for a tower’s operational efficiency and longevity.
By providing a complete range of high-quality components, FlowMatrix helps you maintain the integrity and performance of your cooling tower’s mechanical drive system.
Includes:
- Motors: The power source for the fan, available in various sizes and specifications to match your cooling load.
- Fan Impellers / Fan Wheels: These are the blades that move the air through the tower. We offer a range of designs to optimise airflow and reduce energy consumption.
- Shafts: The central rotating component that transfers torque from the motor to the fan.
- Bearings: Critical for supporting the shaft and reducing friction. Our high-quality bearings ensure smooth, quiet operation and extended service life.
- Pulleys: Used in belt-driven systems to transfer power between the motor and the shaft.
- Taper Locks: A simple yet effective mechanical locking device for securing pulleys and other components to the shaft without the need for keyways.
