In 2020, CTANDA was contracted to address critical issues with two large NC cooling towers at a pharmaceutical facility. Excessive corrosion and deteriorated materials compromised the towers’ efficiency and brought them out of compliance with current legionella control guidelines.
Contaminated and brittle fill media was removed and replaced with new, high-quality OEM heat transfer material. This significantly improved cooling performance and met legionella prevention standards.
The existing basins were corroded and replaced with new, durable stainless steel units to ensure optimal water distribution and system longevity.
A well-defined shutdown window was established through close collaboration with the client to minimise disruption to their operations.
Recognising potential lead times, CTANDA proactively secured all necessary materials and delivered them to the site in advance, ensuring a smooth project execution.
The refurbishment project was successfully completed within a timeframe of 3-4 weeks.
All internal wetted surfaces were thoroughly shotblasted to remove contaminants and then coated with a high-performance polyurethane coating. This coating provides superior corrosion protection and contributes to legionella control.
Following the refurbishment, the cooling towers returned to operation with enhanced efficiency and demonstrably meet current legionella compliance standards.
Since the refurbishment, the cooling towers have continued to operate reliably with no reported issues or signs of corrosion.
The client has implemented a bi-annual maintenance program to ensure continued optimal performance and equipment longevity.
Through its comprehensive solution encompassing refurbishment, spare parts supply, and installation services, CTANDA has established itself as a trusted and reliable partner for the client’s cooling tower maintenance needs.
This case study emphasises the value of
Regular inspections and timely repairs can prevent extensive damage and ensure compliance with regulations.
Maintaining proper cooling tower conditions is crucial for mitigating the risk of legionella growth.
Effective communication and close collaboration with clients are essential for successful project execution.
A single-source provider offering a wide range of services can streamline maintenance processes and enhance client satisfaction.
By applying these principles, CTANDA remains committed to delivering exceptional cooling tower solutions that promote operational efficiency, regulatory compliance, and long-term equipment reliability for our clients.
I worked with CTANDA on a large-scale cooling tower installation. All the staff were most helpful and the product arrived on time and in good order. I would definitely work with them again.
