For over 100 years, Falk has been trusted to design and manufacture gear drives for the world’s most demanding applications. Our engineers created the CT-Series Cooling Tower Gear Drive to address many common issues in the cooling tower industry. The design helps reduce operating costs and increase uptime, resulting in more efficient operations in the harsh rigors of cooling tower and vertical drive applications.
Falk CT-Series Solves Common Gearbox Problems
When designing the Falk Cooling Tower Gearbox, our engineers focused on optimizing performance and addressing common gearbox issues:
Don’t Take Our Word For It
To experience the benefits of the CT-Series in real-time and in a true environment, a premier chemical processor in the U.S. tested the cooling tower gear box with their applications and performance skyrocketed. This group found that their old gearboxes were underperforming, displaying vibration issues, and experienced leaking seals, resulting in frequent downtime and failure every 6-8 months. As a result, our CT-Series Cooling Tower Gear Drive effectively eliminated these issues, contributing to a 36% improvement in runtime!
