Air-Cooled Compressor Intercoolers
In multi-stage compressors, intercoolers cool air between compression stages, reducing temperature and moisture to improve efficiency and protect components. Available through AirCooledAftercoolers.com, our air-cooled intercoolers are engineered for industries like petrochemical, automotive, and manufacturing, offering reliable cooling without the need for water-based systems.[](https://www.atlascopco.com/en-ae/compressors/air-compressor-blog/air-compressor-intercooler-and-aftercooler)
Why Use Air-Cooled Intercoolers
Air-cooled intercoolers enhance compressor efficiency by cooling air to within 20-30°F of ambient temperature, increasing air density for better compression in later stages. They condense moisture, reducing corrosion risks, and are built with durable materials like aluminum or stainless steel to handle pressures up to 250 PSI. Their fan-driven design eliminates water requirements, lowering maintenance and operational costs compared to water-cooled models, making them ideal for environments without water resources.[](https://www.about-air-compressors.com/intercooler/)
