Tower Capacities and Sound Pressure Levels of Cooling Tower Systems

The chart of sound pressure levels on this page provides critical information to help you choose the right cooling tower for your needs. This chart lists cooling towers by model – such as the CT-5, CT-15, CT-40, CT-100, CT-200, CT-350, CT-1000, and others – and displays their respective sound pressure levels (in decibels) at three different distances from the cooling tower. This detailed data allows users to balance performance with environmental considerations, ensuring optimal efficiency and compliance with noise regulations.

Sound Pressure Levels of Cooling Tower Systems

The sound pressure levels in the chart, measured in decibels (dB), reflect the noise produced during operation. For example, a CT-40 might have a lower sound pressure level than a CT-350, making it better suited for areas where noise control is critical, such as near residential neighborhoods. This data helps businesses comply with noise ordinances and create a quieter work environment for employees.

Cooling Capacities for Specific Applications

Each cooling tower model is designed to dissipate heat effectively across various industrial and commercial applications. For instance, the CT-5 has a smaller capacity, making it ideal for compact operations where only a few tons of cooling are required. In contrast, the CT-1000 is a powerhouse suited for large-scale facilities, capable of handling significant heat loads in factories or power plants.

By comparing the cooling tower capacity of particular models with their corresponding sound pressure levels, businesses can select a tower that matches the scale of their cooling needs while avoiding overcapacity or undercapacity, or noise violations, which could lead to unnecessary costs, underperformance, or noncompliance issues.
