A cooling tower dosing system is used to inject specific chemicals into the water circulating through a cooling tower to maintain water quality, prevent scaling, corrosion, and microbial growth, and improve the system’s efficiency.
Key Functions:
- Chemical Dosing: The system adds chemicals like biocides (to control bacteria and algae), scale inhibitors (to prevent mineral buildup), and corrosion inhibitors (to protect metal surfaces).
- Monitoring & Control: The dosing system is typically automated, with sensors monitoring parameters like pH, conductivity, and chlorine levels. It adjusts chemical doses based on the readings.
- Water Treatment: Helps maintain the cooling tower’s efficiency, reducing maintenance costs and extending the life of the system.
