Evaporative Condenser Systems
Our evaporative condenser systems combine the principles of a cooling tower and a refrigerant condenser in a single, highly efficient unit. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial processing, cold storage, and chemical industries, these systems deliver exceptional thermal performance under the most challenging ambient conditions.
By utilizing the latent heat of water evaporation, our evaporative condensers significantly lower condensing temperatures compared to traditional air-cooled or water-cooled alternatives. This results in reduced compressor horsepower requirements, dropping your overall facility energy costs by up to 30%.
Key Benefits of Our Evaporative Condensers:
Energy & Cost Efficiency: Lowers system condensing temperature, reducing compressor power consumption and long-term operational costs.
Heavy-Duty Durability: Constructed with premium galvanized steel or stainless steel coils to ensure maximum corrosion resistance and extended service life.
Water-Saving Technology: Advanced drift eliminators and smart water distribution systems minimize water loss and scaling.
Compact Footprint: Integrates the condenser and cooling tower functions into one package, saving valuable factory floor or roof space.
KEF evaporative condenser is a combined flow evaporative condenser and the PVC fill can cool the industrial process fluid effectively.
Forced Draft evaporative cooling is a mechanically ventilated condenser with a fan installed at the air inlet. Relying on the fan at the lower part of the tower, the cold air outside the tower is forcibly sent into the tower through the air inlet duct. Mainly used in small cooling towers or cooling towers where water is aggressive to fans.
KEJ evaporative condenser is a hybrid type condenser with fin tube unit. It is designed for the water saving and plume abatement. And It can also reduce the evaporation to minimize the tendency of furring on the coil and following problems. It can can operate under dry model while low load.
Product Application Project
Five high-specification industrial air coolers were provided for a petrochemical energy project in a Central Asian country, using 45% ethylene glycol as the cooling medium. The project addressed the extremely cold and water-scarce environment of Central Asia by employing a fully dry air-cooled heat exchange technology, achieving zero water consumption operation and completely eliminating the risk of pipeline freezing and cracking in winter, ensuring the continuous and safe operation of this national-level energy corridor.

FAQ
Find Answers To Common Questions About Cronx Products, Customization, Delivery,
Installation, And Technical Support Services
-
What are the primary water quality requirements for an evaporative condenser?
To prevent heavy scaling and corrosion, water should be regularly treated. Ideal parameters include a pH level between 7.0 and 8.5, total hardness (as CaCO3) under 200 ppm, and chloride levels below 150 ppm for galvanized steel coils (below 250 ppm for stainless steel).
-
How does an evaporative condenser save energy compared to an air-cooled system?
Evaporative condensers utilize the ambient wet-bulb temperature (evaporative cooling) rather than the dry-bulb temperature. This lowers the refrigerant condensing temperature, reducing compressor power consumption by up to 25–30%.
-
Can your evaporative condenser systems operate in freezing winter conditions?
Yes. For freezing climates, we equip systems with winterization packages, including electric basin heaters, variable frequency drive (VFD) fans, and remote sump configurations to prevent water freezing.
-
What is the lifespan of your condensing coils, and what materials are available?
We offer heavy-duty hot-dip galvanized steel coils (15+ years lifespan) and premium stainless steel 304/316L coils (25+ years lifespan) designed for highly corrosive industrial environments.
-
What are the routine maintenance requirements for these systems?
Regular maintenance includes monthly inspection of spray nozzles for clogging, checking water chemical levels, cleaning the basin strainers, and lubricating fan bearings every 3–6 months.
