Filter Solutions: Critical Facilities

Critical Facilities Solutions: Increased Reliability and Decreased Costs

Critical Facilities never quit.
​Neither do our filter systems.  
Utilities, data centers, health care facilities and financial centers are among the nation’s critical facilities that demand continuous, reliable service – because that’s what’s demanded of them.

Application
Cooling Tower
 
The Problem
Corrosion and bacteria were clogging and eating away at chiller tubes in an Ashburn, VA data center. Despite using side-stream filtration, bacterial growth was a relentless problem that threatened the center’s ability to keep cool air flowing over critical equipment.
 
The Solution
Plain sand filter media was removed from existing side-stream filters and was replaced with Pathex on five 1,200-ton cooling towers. Pathex destroys bacteria on contact, tackling biofilm and its contributions to corrosion and further biofouling – without the need for lengthy maintenance procedures or system downtime.
 
Outcomes
System reliability, cleaner water, and reduced energy and water consumption:
  • Recovered 1.8°F of chiller temperature
  • Reduced run KW from 699 to 590
  • Water clarity (turbidity) improved from >424 NTU to <5 NTU
  • Eliminated 80% of oxidizing chemical treatment
  • Saved 20% in water and 50% maintenance costs
