Legionella Control In Cooling Towers
The most advanced water treatment and monitoring for cooling towers and systems to control Legionella, Pseudomonas and other water borne pathogens.
Cooling systems and towers provide an optimal environment for the growth of bacteria, including Legionella. This bacteria can then spread via aerosols and result in the spread of Legionnaire’s disease among workers. Consequently, by law sites must commit to Legionella control in cooling towers by installing a proven control system.
ProEconomy have Article 95 listing for water treatment in cooling systems. Therefore, our Orca system is authorised to control Legionella in cooling towers across the UK and Europe. This includes treating cooling towers at some of the most prestigious sites in Europe, such as the European Space Agency.
To find out more about Legionella control in cooling towers, read our European Space Agency case study. Alternatively, contact our team for more information on our cooling tower water treatment and management service.

The European Space Agency (ESA) has been using an Orca copper and silver ionisation (CSI) system for treating the water supply to their GN chiller for the control of Legionella since 2004. The summary results from 2013 to 2017 shows that there were no Legionella positives during the period.
