Marley / NC Class Stainless CoolingTower / 3

NC Class Stainless Steel towers are factory assembled, crossflow cooling towers, designed to serve air conditioning and refrigeration systems as well as light to medium industrial process loads on clean water. They evolve from a factory-assembled concept of towers pioneered by Marley some 50 years ago, and incorporate all of the design advancements that our customers have found valuable. The NC Class has been designed specifically for sound control and tonnage density and represents the current state of the art in this cooling tower category.

This booklet not only relates the language to use in describing an appropriate NC Class cooling tower— but also defines why certain items and features are important enough to specify with the intention of insisting upon compliance by all bidders. The left-hand column of pages 4 thru 22 provides appropriate text for the various specification paragraphs, whereas the right hand column comments on the meaning of the subject matter and explains its value.

Pages 4 thru 10 indicate those paragraphs which will result in the purchase of a basic cooling tower—one that accomplishes the specified thermal performance, but which will lack many operation—and maintenance- enhancing accessories and features that are usually desired by those persons who are responsible for the continued and continuing operation of the system of which the tower is part. It will also incorporate those standard materials which testing and experience has proven to provide acceptable longevity in normal operating conditions.

Pages 11 thru 22 provide paragraphs intended to add those features, components and materials that will customize the tower to meet the user's requirements.

Space does not permit definition and explanation of all of the possible options that can be applied to the NC Class. We realize that you, the purchaser, must be happy with the tower's characteristics, and we are prepared to provide—or provide for—any reasonable enhancement that you are willing to define and purchase. Your needs will become part of the continuing evolution of this Marley product line.
