An improvement to an air-water heat exchanger having an exchanger unit and a blower that are located in a housing constructed of a shell surrounded by a hood that is connected to a cabinet wall where the cabinet wall and the floor of the shell include openings and the housing is divided by at least one separating wall into an inlet chamber and an outlet chamber that connect to the openings in the floor of the shell. The improvement involves a blower, having an air outlet, that is located in the inlet chamber of the heat exchanger in such a manner so as to draw air through an air suction opening in the floor of the shell, and then supply that air through an opening in the separating wall to the exchanger unit located in the outlet chamber where the air is cooled and then directed by a drip separator and a baffle plate toward the associated air outlet opening in the floor of the shell.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] In an improved air-water heat exchanger having an exchanger unit and a blower located in a housing constructed of a shell surrounded by a hood that is connected to a cabinet wall where the cabinet wall and the floor of the shell include openings and the housing is divided by at least one separating wall into an inlet chamber having an air inlet and an outlet chamber having an air outlet that connect the openings in the floor of the shell, the improvement comprised of:an opening in the separating wall;the blower having an air outlet, which is located in the inlet chamber in such a way so at to draw the air through the air inlet in the floor of the shell and then supply that air, through the opening in the separating wall, to the heat exchanger unit located completely within the outlet chamber in such a manner that the air is drawn upward through the heat exchanger;a drip separator positioned within the outlet chamber and covering a top portion of the heat exchanger and;a baffle plate attached to the exchanger, reby water carried by the air drawn through the heat exchanger is prevented from flowing through the air outlet in the outlet chamber.
