Drift Eliminator Replacement

Satisfy H&SE requirements by replacing damaged or defective drift eliminators

The ACoP & Guidance L8 advises that Cooling Towers and Evaporative condensers are fitted with High Efficiency Drift Eliminators.

The ACoP and Guidance L8: Legionnaires Disease the control of legionella bacteria in water systems
"All cooling towers, whether new or existing, should have effective high efficiency drift eliminators"

"Cooling systems should be designed and constructed to minimise the release of drift, to aid safe operation, cleaning and disinfection.

Modern drift eliminators, usually made of plastic or metal, should be fitted to all towers"
H&SE; Legionnaires’ Disease – A report on the findings of two outbreak investigations and a six month enforcement campaign in the West Midlands
"The importance of drift eliminators as a first tier engineering control under COSHH is not widely appreciated and there are probably large numbers of towers in use with defective or ineffective eliminators"
