Why aftercoolers are essential for your compressed air system

Aftercoolers are essential in compressed air systems, as they lower the temperature of air exiting the compressor, which is typically saturated with water vapour. Without effective cooling, this moisture can condense downstream, leading to equipment damage, higher maintenance costs, and reduced system efficiency. Water-cooled aftercoolers, like the CW range, provide a highly efficient solution by using water to rapidly cool compressed air. The CW aftercoolers reduce air temperatures close to the temperature of the incoming cooling water, significantly decreasing the moisture load on dryers and other downstream components. Incorporating a CW aftercooler helps safeguard equipment, enhance system performance, and reduce the need for additional drying capacity, making it a vital component of any compressed air setup.

Discover the key features of the CW

The CW range of water-cooled aftercoolers is equipped with a variety of features designed to deliver exceptional cooling performance and reliability. The robust shell-and-tube construction ensures durability and long-lasting operation, even in challenging conditions. Stainless steel tubes provide superior corrosion resistance and efficient heat transfer for consistent performance. The counter-current flow design maximises cooling efficiency by minimising the temperature difference between the outgoing compressed air and incoming cooling water. Additionally, the range supports high-pressure applications, offering flexibility for various industrial setups. Compact in size, the CW aftercoolers are easy to integrate into existing systems, making them a versatile and dependable choice for compressed air installations.
