What does PLANT-11 mean?

Tower leaving water is far above the outdoor wet-bulb with the fans working.

Why does it matter?

Scale, fouled fill or poor water distribution raises chiller lift and kW per ton.

What should you do?

Inspect fill and nozzles, check water treatment and blowdown, verify fan and float operation.
