The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies performs cooling tower fan balancing to ensure the proper, efficient functionality of industrial fans in a variety of applications.
The Importance of Fan Balancing
As business working across several industries and disciplines rely on cooling tower fans, maintaining fan balance is essential to avoiding device failure or damage, ensuring personnel safety, extending equipment lifespan, sustaining efficient operation, minimizing energy consumption, and avoiding costly repairs, replacements, and unplanned downtime. Our cooling tower fan balancing experts work diligently to identify and address the root cause of imbalance to help your business stay fully operational and current with regulatory requirements.
Cooling Tower Fan Balancing Process
ATS’ fan balancing specialists start the fan balancing process by closely examining the fan and its blades to detect the cause of imbalance. Methods such as visual inspection, diagnostic testing, laser alignment, and vibration analysis are used to assess each individual fan blade. Technicians then make adjustments, typically consisting of adding or removing weight to one or more fan blades.
Once all initial adjustments are made, our fan balancing experts begin the verification process, taking measurements and performing additional testing procedures to confirm vibration levels are within an acceptable range and all issues have been resolved. ATS works with clients to create a maintenance schedule that will help ensure long-lasting equipment functionality and reduced risk of future damage.
