The cylinders of the cooling towers are parts that receive the mechanical equipment, formed by the fan and the gear motor, which in turn are supported by the chassis. Maintaining its integrity is essential both to maintain cooling tower performance and to ensure there is no risk of accidents in the field.
Our maintenance case was carried out in our factory, where the client sent all the cylinders of the Ø6 meter diffusers - these were manufactured at the time by another manufacturer -, so that we could carry out the appraisal and maintenance of all of them. The workflow involved our Engineering, Quality, Plant Leadership, PCP and Board of Directors, so that all parties were aligned with the project and development was done in the best possible way. It took approximately 15 days to renew the parts.
All the assembly in the field was also carried out by our specialized team, which took all the precautions so that the work was carried out without delays and without accidents.
Vettor Torres has the immense honor of communicating another of his achievements! At the end of 07/22 we received the #Raízen team in our factory, which audited all our administrative processes, manufacturing processes, quality of raw materials and finished materials in stock and, after all the analyses, granted us the supplier classification. level A, of the highest scale, with more than 91% approval! This result attests, once again, to the quality of our products and services and the technical capacity of our team. We thank everyone for your effort and we also thank Raízen for the visit and the opportunity for us to be able to attest once again to our capacity.
Vettor Torres was the company chosen to supply the Cooling Towers cells for the 60MW turbine that is being implemented in Ingênio Aguaí, in Bolivia. There will be a total of 5,500m³/h of water flow for cooling the turbine, where the towers will operate in uninterrupted work.
According to the turbine manufacturer, “the turbogenerator set will produce and supply energy from biomass for the daily processing of 15 thousand tons of sugarcane, 750 thousand liters of alcohol and 920 thousand kilograms of sugar. The maximum power of the turbine is close to 60 MW, with capacity to supply a city with almost 280 thousand inhabitants. ” (source: reproduction / internet).
The first battery of cooling towers is already scheduled to start on 05/18/2021, with an estimated forecast for the start of the second battery of cells in June/2021.
“Vettor has been experiencing a significant growth over the past 5 years and works continuously to retain its customers not only in Brazil but also abroad, and we are very honored to be able to supply more cooling tower cells to Ingênio Aguaí, who has trusted more once in our work and expertise, ”said Mariane Maure Garcia, Vettor's Business Coordinator.
For a cooling tower budget, it is necessary to collect accurate information about the industrial process in which it will work.
There are several factors that need to be analyzed, for example:
· The operational flow rate (in l/h or m³/h),
· The temperatures of hot water (the one that will come out of your process), of cold water (the one that will return to your process), and also the TBU (wet bulb temperature) of the region where it will be installed,
· What are the characteristics of the water (if it is clean, raw, with residues, etc.), if it is stillage, etc.
Why is it so important to know all the characteristics of the process?
There is no magic formula. The towers need to be dimensioned by their own programs for this, with skilled engineering and high technical knowledge of the product, because a poorly chosen filling, a temperature not considered or a poorly dimensioned component, will impact directly on the operation of the tower and may seriously damage the entire process.
Trust anyone who understands the subject!
Contact the VETTOR experts.
All necessary information will be collected and then an accurate budget will be prepared.

Industrial stoppages are a challenge, and it is not always possible to make them.
In order to facilitate this process, VETTOR has performance tests allied to the technical capacity of its professionals, which in turn, help in the fast identification of problems, through accurate and real diagnosis of equipment conditions.
But how do you know whether to retire or recapacitate?
The reform becomes necessary when the components are damaged, either by lack of preventive maintenance or by changes in the industrial processes that impair the heat exchange, bearing in mind that the cold-water temperature necessary for the process is no longer being reached.
In the case of recapacitating, a study is made that recovers and maximizes the original performance conditions established in the project, and the necessary changes are made to the tower's structure so that it can meet this new process.
Whatever your need is, the team of highly experienced technicians and engineers will visit your plant, elaborating a special study and assessing the best way to serve you.
Don't let your industrial process be disrupted. Schedule a technical visit for evaluations and tests!

Have you ever heard of Water-Cooling Tower?
Cooling towers are equipment’s used for cooling industrial water.
In the great majority of industrial processes, there is a need to cool equipment and machinery that generate a certain amount of heat during operation.
The basic concept of a tower operation is the introduction of water in its upper part, through the input nozzle, distributing to the contact fill by means of nozzles or distribution nozzles.
At the same time, the fan installed on the top or side of the tower sucks or blows the air inside, transporting it to the fill, so that hot air contact with cold water occurs, thus promoting heat transfer.
In towers without a fill, cooling takes place directly through the contact of water with air, so that hot air comes out from the top of the tower and cold water is made available by the outlet nozzle installed in the cold-water basin.
Water cooling tower design requires technical knowledge of basic engineering principles, and requires practical applications of these principles, using materials and techniques suitable for each need, in order to obtain the best desired results. To achieve this, the basic components such as structure, fill, water distribution system, shutters, droplet eliminators, closure, platforms and fan cylinder (or diffuser) need to be properly designed to form an integral unit.
VETTOR tower manufacturing processes are ISO 9001 certified, guaranteeing high quality, and the company is also a member of CTI - Cooling Technology Institute, the U.S. body that regulates international standards for water cooling towers.
