FRP Cooling Tower Fan for Industrial Cooling Tower

An FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) cooling tower fan is widely used in industrial cooling towers because it combines high efficiency, corrosion resistance, and low maintenance, especially in harsh operating environments.

What Is an FRP Cooling Tower Fan for Industrial Cooling Tower?

An FRP Cooling Tower Fan for Industrial Cooling Tower is an axial-flow fan made from glass fiber–reinforced plastic, designed to move large volumes of air through an industrial cooling tower to support heat rejection.

FRP Cooling Tower Fan for Industrial Cooling Tower Typical applications

* Power plants

* Petrochemical plants

* Steel mills

* HVAC & district cooling

* Chemical & fertilizer plants

Key Advantages of FRP Cooling Tower Fan for Industrial Cooling Tower

* Corrosion resistant – ideal for wet, chemical, and coastal environments

* Lightweight – reduces gearbox and motor load

* High efficiency airfoil design – lower power consumption

* Low noise – smoother blade profile

* Long service life – UV- and moisture-resistant resins

Common Types of FRP Cooling Tower Fan for Industrial Cooling Tower

1. Adjustable-Pitch FRP Fan

* Blade angle adjustable on hub

* Easy airflow optimization

* Common in large industrial towers

2. Fixed-Pitch FRP Fan

* Factory-set blade angle

* Lower cost

* Stable operation for constant-load systems

3. Wide-Chord FRP Fan

* Higher airflow at lower RPM

* Reduced noise and vibration

* Preferred for energy-saving upgrades
