Features
Guaranteed Performance
Don’t rely on outside agencies with limited enforcement powers. We’ll stand by our responsibility for reliable thermal performance. We designed it. We rate it. We guarantee it!
Long Service Life
We’ve carefully chosen all the materials used in Class 160 towers for their corrosion resistance and suitability for cooling tower service. Pressure-treated lumber, heavy-galvanized steel, stainless steel, PVC and fiberglass keep your Class 160 tower working year after year.
Efficient Field Assembly
Precise factory fabrication assures that every component in your Class 160 tower will fit as designed. And SPX offers an unparalleled nationwide construction organization to build your tower quickly and economically.
Easy Maintenance Access
The Class 160’s crossflow design gives you quick, direct access to the open distribution basins, plenum and mechanical components for regular inspection and service.
Low Operating Costs
Marley high-efficiency fill and fans, gravity-flow water distribution, and efficient Geareducer® drive work together to offer maximum cooling with minimum power use.
Low Maintenance Costs
Induced-draft propeller fans on Marley rightangle Geareducer units; TEFC, 1.15 service factor motors; and heavy-duty mechanical equipment supports assure long service life with minimal maintenance.
All-Season Reliability
Class 160 towers perform as specified in the heat of summer. They respond well to energy management techniques in the spring and fall. They operate virtually ice-free in the dead of winter. And they offer simple maintenance all year long.
Single Source Parts Availability
SPX designs, manufactures, guarantees, and stocks all major components of the tower except motors and some fan sizes. In fact, we stock many of those parts, too. We’ll have the parts if you ever need them.
