ZL-80T 80 Ton Industrial FRP Counter Flow Cooling Tower - CFO Procurement
The ZL-80T FRP counter flow cooling tower delivers 281.29 kW heat rejection at 80 refrigeration tons with 62.6 m3/h water flow rate. The following sections detail engineering specifications, operational considerations, and application-specific integration guidance for the ZL-80T.
The ZL-80T cooling tower represents a 10-year investment with total cost of ownership significantly lower than competing technologies. Initial purchase price is USD 1500. Over a 10-year service life, operating costs include: fan motor electricity (1.5 kW continuous) approximately USD 281 k; water treatment chemicals USD 300-500 annually; routine maintenance USD 200-400 annually; and one-time fan motor replacement at year 7-8 (USD 200-400). Total 10-year cost: approximately USD 28500. The 15-year design service life provides 5 years of free operation beyond the typical 10-year payback horizon.
ZILLION offers tiered bulk discounts on ZL-80T cooling tower procurement: 1 unit at USD 1500; 2-5 units at USD 1470 per unit (2 percent discount); 6-10 units at USD 1425 per unit (5 percent discount); 11-20 units at USD 1380 per unit (8 percent discount); 21+ units available at negotiated rates. The bulk discount structure incentivizes multi-site standardization and enables EPC contractors to lock in pricing for project pipelines.
The ZL-80T is priced EXW Dongguan, meaning the buyer assumes responsibility for inland transportation, export documentation, ocean freight, insurance, and import clearance. For European buyers, total landed cost including sea freight, insurance, customs duty (typically 2-3 percent for cooling towers under HS code 8419), and inland delivery typically adds 25-35 percent to the EXW price. For Middle East buyers, shipping is faster (15-20 days) but logistics costs are higher per unit due to smaller shipment volumes and the tower's larger dimensions.
ZILLION accepts multiple payment methods for international procurement of the ZL-80T cooling tower. Standard terms are 30 percent T/T deposit upon order confirmation with 70 percent balance paid against B/L copy before shipment. L/C at sight is accepted for orders above USD 50,000, with standard banking fees applying. For orders above USD 100,000, irrevocable L/C at sight is recommended for transaction security.
Standard lead time for the ZL-80T cooling tower is 25-35 days from order confirmation to EXW Dongguan loading. The lead time includes 10 days for raw material procurement (FRP resin, PVC fill media, motor, fan), 15-20 days for shell fabrication and assembly, and 5-7 days for quality testing and pre-shipment inspection. For urgent orders, expedited production is available at 20 percent premium with 15-20 day lead time.
ZILLION provides a 1-year warranty on the ZL-80T cooling tower covering manufacturing defects in FRP shell, fan motor, fill media, and water distribution system. Extended warranty (2-3 years) is available at 5 percent of purchase price. After-warranty service is provided through ZILLION's technical support team via email, video call, or on-site visit by regional service partners. Spare parts pricing: fan motor USD 200-400, float valve USD 40-60, fill media sections USD 50-90 per section.
