There are several supporting structures for fiberglass cooling towers

2024-7-11

The supporting structure of fiberglass cooling tower is generally divided into two types: concrete frame and steel structure frame.


1. Characteristics of concrete frame support structure for fiberglass cooling tower: high service life, stable structure, and low overall vibration value; Its structure often appears in tower shapes with a circulating water volume of over 2000m ³/h. If special water quality corrodes concrete, anti-corrosion treatment can be applied to the overall framework of the cooling tower.


2. Characteristics of the steel structure frame support structure of the fiberglass cooling tower: The service life can reach more than 10 years, and its structural vibration value is relatively high compared to concrete structures. However, different anti-corrosion processes can be carried out according to the actual water quality, generally including hot-dip galvanizing anti-corrosion, fiberglass lining anti-corrosion, and epoxy coal tar paint anti-corrosion; Under the same tower shape, this structure is relatively more expensive compared to concrete cooling towers (because the construction and supply of concrete are generally the responsibility of the owner), but the overall cost is much lower than that of concrete structures. Therefore, the steel frame support of cooling towers is also more popular among users compared to concrete frame structures.


There is another type of cooling tower support structure called fiberglass support structure. The overall support of the cooling tower adopts fiberglass extruded profiles, which are mainly used in circulating water with special media. However, their structure is very rare, and their structural stability is poor, resulting in high cost. Therefore, our company does not recommend this type of cooling tower structure.


Shandong Shengbao is a large manufacturer of fiberglass cooling towers, specializing in the production of large and medium-sized cooling tower machinery and equipment such as fiberglass cooling towers, diffuser/reflux cooling towers, ring/square fiberglass cooling towers, environmentally friendly and energy-saving cooling towers.
