Heat Exhcnager/ After Cooler


I am looking for a aftercooler for my air compressor.

Air to air aftercooler with threaded ends.

Does anyone know where i could find these?

Ingersoll Rand makes them, I know that much. If you have electric available, a refrigerated air dryer will work too. Might be more compact, depending on the # of CFM's you're talking about. What's the delta T you're looking for?

210 CFM 100 PSI

I didnt know IR made them, im guessing they cost a ton though. Any links on their units?

VanAir Systems sells them also, but requires 115v, i only have 12V from the compressor.

Those pics i posted are from companies who include a 12v fan on their units. But the asking prices are ridiculous for those units. $900 and $2100 for the double.


If i get the aftercooler, i can plumb it, and add a regular 12v radiator fan for alot less.

What's the inlet pipe size for 210 CFM at 100 psi?

Re: Heat Exhcnager/ After Cooler


This is what I'm thinking about, but I'm not sure what the PSI rating is:

HA, ha hahaha.... same deal. You're flowing air through instead of water. Same diff. It's just a big freaking radiator. You just need to get one with the right pipe sized in and out and the PSI rating to take 100 psi.

Ha, i didnt know it was the same thing.
Thanks for the link, i e-mail them.


Im not sure though, it looks more for a residential home use type of thing.

maybe something like this without the motor

I would suggest contacting SMC http://www.smcusa.com/default.asp or BEKO http://www.beko.de/1.0.html?no_cache=1&L=9

Dude, If you can't find it there give up. SMC is the largest pneumatic co. in the world.

You also have some serious design problems. 200+ CFM through 3/4" pipe is causing some serious stresses and causing much of your condensate problems.

Consider that the last system that I designed was based on 150 CFM max for 70K sq. ft. of manufacturing space. There were 3 compressors (one reserved) feeding a manifold into an impact seperator +++ we went 2" black iron from there. You still need condensation drops and filters @ POU.

Teetor, this is for a mobile diesel compressor. The stock valves come with 3/4 connections.
