Construction Options
- Standard Construction — Steel panels and structural elements are constructed of G-235 (Z700 metric) hot-dip galvanized steel.
- Optional EVERTOUGH™ Construction — EVERTOUGH™ Construction combines the most corrosion resistant materials to provide the best value in corrosion protection for most water chemistries. EVERTOUGH™ Construction is backed by a comprehensive Louver-to-LouverSM 5-year warranty which covers ALL components from the fan to the cold water basin, from louver-to-louver including the motor.
- Specifically, the following materials are used in EVERTOUGH™ Construction:
- The cold water basin is constructed with the TriArmor® Corrosion Protection System.
- The basin is leak tested at the factory and warranted against leaks and corrosion for 5 years.
- Designated steel components above the cold water basin are constructed of heavy-gauge G-235 galvanized steel and further protected with a thermosetting hybrid polymer.
- The distribution system is non-corrosive Schedule 40 PVC.
- Optional TriArmor® Corrosion Protection System — The cold water basin is constructed of the TriArmor® Corrosion Protection System. The system consists of a heavy-gauge G-235 galvanized steel substrate, fully encapsulated by a thermosetting hybrid polymer and further protected by a polyurethane barrier applied to all submerged surfaces of the cold water basin. The basin is leak tested at the factory and warranted against leaks and corrosion for 5 years.
- Optional Thermosetting Hybrid Polymer — A thermosetting hybrid polymer coating, used to extend equipment life, is applied to select hot-dip galvanized steel components of the evaporative condenser. The thermosetting hybrid polymer has been tested to withstand 6000 hours in a 5% salt spray without blistering, chipping, or loss of adhesion.
- Optional Type 304 Welded Stainless Steel Cold Water Basin — A Type 304 stainless steel cold water basin is available. Seams between panels inside the cold water basin are welded. The basin is leak tested at the factory and welded seams are provided with a 5-year, leak-proof warranty.
- Optional All Type 304 Stainless Steel Construction — Steel panels and structural elements are constructed of Type 304 stainless steel. Seams between panels inside the cold water basin are welded. The basin is leak tested at the factory and welded seams are provided with a 5-year leak-proof warranty.
- Rated in accordance with IBC regulations to meet Seismic and Wind Loadings — Standard and optional constructions with structural bracing are designed to meet seismic and wind requirements of the 2009 International Building Code covering most US seismic applications in addition to withstanding wind loads up to 150 psf.
Coil Configurations
- Standard Serpentine Coil — The standard refrigerant coil is constructed of continuous lengths of all prime surface steel, hot-dip galvanized after fabrication (HDGAF). The galvanizing is on the outside surface of the coil. The coil is designed for low pressure drop with sloping tubes for free drainage of fluid. Each coil is pneumatically tested at 375 psig (2,586 kPa) and is fabricated per ASME B31.5 standards.
- Note: All BAC standard coils are designed to be drainable.

- Serpentine Coil
- Optional Stainless Steel Coil — Coils are available in Type 304 stainless steel for specialized applications. The coil is designed for low pressure drop with sloping tubes for free drainage of fluid. Each coil is pneumatically tested at 375 psig (2,586 kPa) and is fabricated per ASME B31.5 standards.
- Optional ASME “U” Stamp Coil — This coil is manufactured and tested in accordance with the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section VIII, Division 1, and bears the ASME “U” stamp. ASME coils are hot-dip galvanized (outside surface) after fabrication (HDGAF). The coil is designed for low pressure drop with sloping tubes for free drainage of fluid. Each coil is pneumatically tested at 335 psig (2,310 kPa).
- Optional Extended Surface Coil — Coils are available with finning at 5 fins per inch for seasonal wet/dry operation. The coil is hot-dip galvanized after fabrication (HDGAF). The galvanizing is on the outside surface of the coil and fins. The coil is designed for low pressure drop with sloping tubes for free drainage of fluid. Each coil is pneumatically tested at 375 psig (2,586 kPa) and is fabricated per ASME B31.5 standards.
- When required, coils shipping into Canada are supplied with a CRN. Other coil configurations are available for specific applications. Contact your local BAC Representative for details.
Redundant Fan and Pump Operation
The optional redundant drive system is available on all 12′ x 18′ units and its multi-cell units. In addition, all PC2 models are available with optional secondary pump. This pump can be switched easily and maintained while the unit remains in operation.
Extended Lubrication Lines (Standard)
Extended lubrication lines are standard for lubrication of the fan shaft bearings. Grease fittings are located inside the plenum area next to the access door.
