I'm trying to figure out the amount of gallons of evaporation from our cooling towers (our meter is broken). The conductivity of the water is 1000 to 1200 and the load is 650 tons. We have Marley forced induction cooling towers (4 500 ton cells in use)(don't ask why). I have been told that 100...
Thank you all for your input. The product data sheet ( that we got from our maintanence vendor )says the generator burns 104 gallons per hour. Thanks for the "hot fuel" tip, also.
I have been asked to provide the estimated run time for our 2 megowatt generator with 2000 gallons of fuel. Any one with suggestions on what information I should collect and a formula to plug them into. Many thanks in advance.
I have been asked to provide the estimated run time for our 2 meg generator if it were 75% loaded and had 2,000 gallons of fuel. Any suggestions on how I figure this. What information do I need to figure this? Many thanks.
dale1627 - from one electrician to another - a simple quick way would be to look at the model number - say it's a Carrier 38CKB060600 - look at the numbers after the letters (060), these are your BTU's. Devide them bt 12 and this will give you your tons 60/12 = 5 tons. Good luck.
Thank you absrbrtek - I'm in the Boston area. I'll have to look into any low pressure controls. The problem is that I'm a sub to a sub contractor and the owner makes corporate decisions way up the food chain from me with little in put from anyone around here. I'm just expected to deal with the...
Thanks Kenrad. I should have added that the units range in size from 1.5 ton to 10 tons and that there are some units with variable speed controls on the condenser fans and some with wind guards around the comdensing units to block high winds in the winter. There is no original docs, 4 or 5...
IM new to this site, not HVAC experienced and expected to pick it up. I have 20-30 split DX units with R-22 refrigerant doing computer room year round cooling. I understand they have problems with the units in the winter. Is there anything I can do to prepare? What kinds of problems can I...
