Meridian® Series

EvapTech is proud to introduce the first ever industrial-scale, fiberglass-framed, modular cooling tower—the Meridian® series. Unlike competing products, the Meridian® series maintains the superior thermal performance and longevity of fiberglass while slashing lead time and cost. This innovative design is primarily factory-assembled into modules prior to shipment, reducing the number of parts that need site assembly compared to standard steel towers. The result? Faster installation, greater site safety and far better value over the lifetime of the product.

 

EC Meridian® (ECM)

The base model Meridian® features a pressurized water distribution system, PVC fill, high-efficiency eliminators, water- and sight-tight (WST™) louvers, premium mechanical equipment, basin flexibility, and easy maintenance access. With the ECM, you can customize the fill to your project’s specific thermal and water quality compliance needs. The entire Meridian® series is available in a range of single-cell sizes and fully capable of multi-cell installations to meet most applications.

ES Prime Meridian® (ESPM) — FM Approved

Fortified with FM-approved features, this model eliminates the need for a fire protection system and keeps equipment operational after a fire, hurricane, tornado or seismic event. Many customers experience lower insurance premiums and the peace of mind they have a high-quality product that’s been through the rigors of FM Approvals testing. Modifications for the ESPM are mostly limited to substituting zeroflame spread Franklin Fill™ and special drift eliminators.
