Three large cooling towers from a power plant emit white steam against a clear blue sky. The gray towers, adorned with red-and-white patterned tops, stand prominently in the image.

Blade Drift Eliminators

Brentwood's blade drift eliminators allow for longer span capabilities and rugged durability due to their heavy-gauge blades. They are designed for effective droplet capture and provide a cost-effective drift solution. The heavy-gauge blades are held together with end caps to form a module that is lightweight yet strong enough to span up to 10 feet, saving material and labor costs.

Benefits

Available in material meeting Cooling Technology Institute (CTI) Standard 136

Designed for counterflow & crossflow applications

Easy to assemble on site
