A.3. TOWER SET-UP
A.3.1. LEVELING AND TOWER SUPPORTS
REYMSA Closed Circuit Fluid Coolers should always be installed on a level surface and adequately
supported. REYMSA recommends supporting Closed Circuit Fluid Coolers on an isolation pad and a
structural base; care must be taken to ensure that the basin sump (the lowest portion of the tower basin)
is completely supported (see Figure A-56). Always make sure the structural base will support the Tower’s
operational weight. Also verify that such support has the proper dimensions; always refer to factory certied
drawings for construction purposes. An example of a recommended base support is shown in “APPENDIX A:
EXAMPLE OF STRUCTURAL BASE FOR A REYMSA CLOSED CIRCUIT FLUID COOLER”; consult your REYMSA
representative for more specics.
Figure A-56: Example of a base support (provided by others)
Tower should be installed on a level surface and adequately supported.
Failure to do so could result in Closed Circuit Fluid Cooler and property damage.
CAUTION
Piping should not be supported by the Closed Circuit Fluid Cooler at any time.
Failure to do so could result in tower and property damage.
CAUTION
A.3.2. PIPING CONNECTIONS
All connections to the Closed Circuit Fluid Cooler module must be eld tted after tower installation to
prevent stress on the tower. All piping should be self-supported and NEVER supported by the Closed Circuit
Fluid Cooler.
