BAC Baltimore Balticare GmbH

BAC Balticare S1500E cooling tower

S1500E features: cross-flow, axial fan, induced draft principle

Extremely low noise level

  • A choice of low-noise axial fans and  whisper-quiet fans  for minimal ambient noise.
  • BACross filling  guides the water calmly and  without water splashing noises  to the pool.
  • One-sided air intake and a  quieter tower rear  for more noise-sensitive areas.
  • Try our  XES1500E range  with smaller motors for  extremely low noise levels  .
  • Factory engineered, tested and dimensioned  sound attenuation  is available at the air intake to further reduce operating noise.

Unprecedented energy savings

  • Evaporative cooling  for system-wide energy savings at lower operating temperatures.
  • Axial fans  require  half the energy of  similar centrifugal fan units.
  • Save pump kW!  Less pump head for this gravity water distribution system. During periods of reduced load,  weir dams  partially close the hot water  basin, saving pump energy .
  • BACross fill  - factory configured for maximum water/air contact and low airside pressure drop for optimal cooling tower efficiency with limited energy consumption.
  • Highly efficient fan motors
  • Multiple  fan motor system covers independent fan motor and drive assembly per fan. In the event of a fan failure, the other fan(s) will continue to operate.
  • XES1500E series with smaller motors to reduce power consumption with the same cooling capacity.

Low maintenance and hassle free inspection

  • Unprecedented safe and  convenient access. Inspection and maintenance of the tower  while standing  and without crawling.
  • The S1500E has a  spacious service channel  (inside) and offers  easy access for inspection/service .
  • Access via a  large  hinged door. With optional  internal walkway : there is no need to drain a basin to inspect the interior of the unit or the fill pack.
  • Inspection of the  water distribution  (hot water basin and nozzles) outside the unit,  possible during operation  .
  • Optional  water distribution tray covers  prevent debris from accumulating inside the unit.
  • You can easily inspect and clean the core of the  BACross fill sheet by sheet without disassembling.  BACross construction reduces fouling. Optional  telescopic packing supports  for easy blade replacement. 
  • The fill includes integral  drift eliminators tested and certified by Eurovent.
  • Self-cleaning cold water basin and fill above sloping  basin  to flush out dirt and debris.
  • Fans  are easily accessible from inside and outside.
  • Optional cleanout  port  helps remove  silt and sludge from cooling tower basin.
  • Suction  strainer with removable anti-turbulence hood.
  • Optional  sump suction  prevents accumulation of sediment in the cold water basin.
  • Various corrosion  -resistant materials, for example the unique Baltibond hybrid coating , for guaranteed long service life.
  • Optional  engine removal davit  for hassle-free engine replacement.

Excellent hygiene control

  • Proper hygiene inspection  without shutting down the unit .
  • Easy to clean and inspect S1500E towers  to reduce  hygiene risks due to bacteria (Legionella) or biofilm inside.
  • Self-cleaning cold water basin and fill above sloping  basin  to flush out dirt and debris.
  • BACross fill  for reduced fouling and easy cleaning sheet by sheet without disassembly.
  • The fill includes integral  drift eliminators  tested and certified by Eurovent.
  • Combined air intake shields  block sunlight to prevent biological growth inside the tower, filter the air and prevent water from splashing outside.
  • Optional  water distribution tray covers  prevent debris from accumulating inside the unit.
  • Optional cleanout  port  helps remove  silt and sludge from cooling tower basin.
  • Optional  sump suction  prevents accumulation of sediment in the cold water basin. 

Ideal replacement device

  • One-sided air inlet and outlet  fits most installation conditions. 
  • S1500E are  ideal replacement devices . Small fan motors and low spray pressure allow  existing control cabinet to be reused.
  • S1500E cooling towers are factory assembled and shipped in 1 or 2 pieces to reduce the overall size and weight and allow for  easy on-site assembly of the pieces  with a smaller crane.

Reliable operation all year round

  • Optimum device condition thanks to  inspection during operation.
  • Proven winter operation  without freezing .
  • The thermal performance of the S1500E cooling towers is tested and  certified by Eurovent .
  • Multiple  fan motor system covers independent fan motor and drive assembly per fan. In the event of a fan failure, the other fan(s) will continue to operate.
  • Various  corrosion -resistant  materials, for example the unique  Baltibond hybrid coating , for guaranteed long service life.
