Direct Dry Cooling Systems (ACC)

Air Cooled Condenser (ACC)

Directly condenses the steam turbine exhaust flow and returns condensate to 

the boiler without water loss. The steam is directly condensed inside air-cooled 

finned tubes without using an intermediate surface condenser.

ACCs are used in utility, industrial and renewables markets for large and small 

size plants. SPX Dry Cooling designs, manufactures and constructs traditional 

A-Frame ACC as well as our innovative Hexacool® ModuleAir®, and Natural Draft 

Condenser using high efficiency SRC® finned tubes.

A-Frame ACC Features

Traditional A-Frame, with near than 1000 installations in the world, is the stateof-the-art ACC, suitable for small to large power plant in a large variety of site 

condition (low ambient temperature, high wind, high seism, low noise). SPX Dry 

Cooling, A-Frame ACC, with fee-expansion tube bundles supported by an A-Frame 

structure, can be mounted on concrete or steel structure.

Hexacool®

Hexacool is a standardized, modular ACC system for small power plants, from few 

megawatts to several hundred megawatts. Hexacool induced draft ACC is easy to 

construct, has a reduced height, and low wind sensitivity.

ModuleAir® ACC

ModuleAir is a modular SRC air cooled condenser design, featuring factory 

assembled structural components, duct, and modular heat exchanger bundles. 

With construction savings of up to 25% versus the conventional A-Frame ACC 

design, construction time can be reduced by several months for large power 

plants. ModuleAir can also achieve lower steam turbine back pressure and 

increase power production at low ambient air temperatures.

Natural Draft Condenser

Natural Draft Condenser is an air cooled condenser where fans are replaced by 

natural draft tower reducing drastically the electrical power consumption of the 

ACC and rotating parts needed. 

Indirect Dry Cooling Tower (IDCT)

Indirect dry condensing system coupling a dry cooling tower with a steam surface 

or jet condenser and suited for any large capacity condensing units. Thanks to 

tall concrete shell, Hot air recirculation is avoided, the auxiliary is power reduced, 

and only a few rotating part are need. This translates into low maintenance and 

high availability.

Dry Cooling Advantages 

• No need for water availability on site

• Environmental regulations for water saving

• Respect environmental regulations, limiting the temperature increase in rivers, lakes and oceans

• Flexibility in the selection of the power plant site (grid proximity, land cost, fuel source proximity)

• Life expectancy exceeding power plant life

• Reduced operation and maintenance cost

• Shorter lead-time for power plants permits and consequently for start-up
