Drift is water lost from cooling towers as liquid droplets are entrained in the exhaust air. The drift loss is independent of the water lost by evaporation. The drift loss may be expressed in units of lb/hr or percentage of circulating water flow. Drift eliminators are used to control this drift loss from the tower.
DRIFTOR® Drift Eliminators can solve some of the most common problems associated with drift loss:
Corrosion problems on surrounding piping, equipment, and electrical components
Short circuiting resulting in failure of electrical systems
Icing of public roads, parking lots, and fields downwind of the tower
Emission of chemicals to the atmosphere
