API Heat Transfer has developed a line of Covrad sand-blast grids that are made to protect your cooling package investment. Sand-blast grids consist of a steel hexagonal inter-locking matrix that mounts between the radiator core and the blower fan, protecting the core from “sand-blast erosion” in harsh environments.
Features.
Robust patented construction with mechanically interlocking tabs
Cost effective solution to extend service life of cooling package
Includes Steel “U-Edging” welded around the perimeter of the grid
Mounting provisions designed to match any radiator
Custom designed to fit any radiator size & configuration
Designed to minimize space required…only 0.50” deep
Can easily be retrofitted into existing installations
Durable EDP coating
Advantages.
Absorbs impact/energy of fan-propelled particles before they contact core
Protects core from erosion resulting from sand abrasion
Very low external static resistance to cooling air flow
Benefits.
Negligible effect on cooling airflow
Eliminates high proportion of “sandblasting” erosion of radiator core in blower fan applications
Extends useful life of radiator compared to unprotected cores
Eliminates costly downtime from replacing radiator cores
Uses.
Specify as “standard” or “optional” value-added component
Specify anytime equipment is used in high sand/dirt/debris site conditions having blower fan arrangement
Standard product consists of 40″ x 40″ and 48″ x 48″ kits, which include u-edging finish trim for perimeter
