PARTS & RETROFITS: COOLING TOWER PARTS
Whether it’s an emergency breakdown or a routine replacement item, Ecodyne can get you the part you need when you need it.
Fluor/Ecodyne has built more than 7,000 cooling towers worldwide which allow us access to an extensive library of engineering drawings. So there’s a good chance we have access to the original design drawings for your tower. That can prove valuable when it comes to parts orders, quick shipments and the right parts to do the job. We stock an extensive inventory of cooling tower parts in our 20,000 square foot warehouse and production facility.
That’s what Ecodyne delivers: knowledgeable service to ensure the parts you order are the right parts for your tower (regardless of who originally built it) and years of industry experience that will save you time and money repairing your cooling tower or when purchasing the necessary parts.
From fan assemblies, couplings, dump valves, eliminators and fill, to nuts & bolts and all parts in between, Ecodyne is your cooling parts supplier.

Cooling Distribution System
SFF Distribution NozzleThe key to thermal performance is how well the water is distributed over the cooling tower’s fill. The more evenly the water covers the fill, the more cooling takes place. Critical to proper water distribution is the design of the nozzles. Ecodyne has designed its own counterflow cooling tower nozzles – each specifically suited to work best with film pack, splash fill or in conversions.
-
MP & WP CF NozzleSince good water distribution is the key to any cooling tower performance, our design includes practical components that will work even in the naturally adverse conditions of a crossflow tower. Distribution pipes, valves, basins, and nozzles are reviewed by engineering to insure reliable coordination with the heat transfer system. Our patented clog-free nozzles provide uniform water flow even when particulates infiltrate the cooling water system.
It’s this attention to detail in cooling tower technology that helps set Ecodyne apart.
Cooling Drift Eliminators
Cooling Drift Eliminator
Ecodyne Cooling supplies PVC/CPVC constructed Drift Eliminators. The cellular design and sinusoidal shaped corrugations of the drift eliminators allow for three direction air flow changes, giving effective removal of entrained moisture with minimum air resistance. Drift eliminators are available in a variety of spans, corrugations and gauges and although the recent generations of DE’s are more efficient, some of the legacy DE’s, such as Hi-V DE’s and their equivalent may still be available. Our Team will be provide you with a detailed quote and pricing for the appropriate drift eliminators required for your application.
Cooling Fill
Cooling Fill
Ecodyne Cooling supplies a variety of manufactures’ Fill Media, in splash or film fill of varying thicknesses and surface area to volume ratios, to meet your specific application need. Whether it is for a new or upgrading an existing counterflow, crossflow or prepackaged tower, our Team can provide you with a detailed quote & pricing indicating the appropriate fill.
Pulp & Paper, Power, Petrochemical, Refining, Steel or Chemical applications, we can offer you the right Fill for your tower needs.
Cooling Tower Fan
Cooling Tower Fans
Ecodyne Cooling supplies both complete assemblies and all parts for high efficiency fans manufactured by Hudson and most fan supply companies for all cooling tower applications. We can supply a fan to meet your unique requirements whether it is low noise, adjustable pitch or energy saving auto-variable pitch hubs.
Cooling Tower Fan Blade
We are also proud to supply the latest member of Hudson’s famous Tuf-Lite lineage, the Tuf-Lite III, the company’s highest efficiency blade to date. Here are just some of the Tuf-Lite III’s special features:
- Developed from the most severe strength testing program.
- One piece FRP construction.
- Leading and trailing edge protection.
- Superior “UV” protection.
- Individually balanced interchangeable blades.
Ecodyne Cooling Tower Couplings
Ecodyne Cooling supplies steel or composite drive shafts for any cooling tower application, regardless of who originally supplied your cooling tower.
Complete replacement units, flex elements (disc packs), or hardware kits are available for your application.
For new or retrofit applications Ecodyne Cooling utilizes Addax Duralite™ and other manufacturer’s composite drive shafts. Addax DuralitetTM drive shafts, introduced in 1987, were the first advanced composite couplings used in the cooling tower industry. Since their introduction, Addax™ drive shafts have been installed in fans, pumps, and marine propulsion systems around the world. Addax™ products are designed, manufactured, and tested by the largest and most experienced coupling manufacturer in the world. Some of the features of Addax Duralite™ drive shafts include:
Addax Couplings
- drop-in design
- specifically designed for cooling tower application
- 100% compliance with CTI specifications
- urethane encapsulation for added corrosion resistance
- overload bushings to protect in over-torque situations
- 316 SS hubs and hardware standard
- patented continuous fiber RTM center section flange
- composite spacer and flex element
- able to span almost twice the distance of a steel spacer without the need for intermediate bearings
- 25% more light-weight than other shafts, increasing your motor and speed reducer bearing life
Ecodyne Bottom Discharge Crossflow Distribution Flow Control Valve
Dump Valve
Ecodyne Limited has acquired the tooling to build the Ecodyne bottom discharge flow control valve.
This unique valve has a 16” outlet located on the bottom centerline of the distribution header with a vertical stem and operating handle exiting the top centerline of the distribution header. The installation
features a low distribution head and the bottom disc ensures an even 360 degree horizontal discharge. The valve is sized by pipe diameter in the following sizes; 18”, 24”, 30”, 36”, 42”, 48”, 54” and 60”. Materials are selected for the tough environment of the cooling tower and features stainless steel hardware and stems, “Ni-Resist” cast iron castings and fiberglass bottom discharge body. Complete valve assemblies and individual parts are available upon request.
Cooling Tower Speed Reducers
Single and double reduction cooling tower gears. Gear replacement parts. Right angle spiral bevel gear reducers, belt drives, and sheaves. Amarillo A Series direct drop-in replacement for Marley speed reducers.

- Ecodyne FH
- Marley
- Westech
- Western
- Fluor Western
- Philadelphia
- Bradfoote
-
