    Abstract: A modular heat transfer system is provided. The modular heat transfer system includes a frame that supports a cooler, where the cooler is designed to cool a process fluid. The frame also includes a mating cleat. The modular heat transfer system further includes a pad module designed to support a media pad, the pad module including a module cleat. The pad module is selectively couplable to the frame via engagement of the module cleat and the mating cleat.
