Compressor oil cooling is essential for maintaining optimal operating temperatures in air compressors, reducing wear, and extending equipment life. Our air-cooled oil coolers, available through AirCooledAftercoolers.com, are designed for industries such as construction, manufacturing, and automotive, providing efficient heat dissipation without water-based systems.
Compressor oil cooling is critical for maintaining the performance and longevity of air compressors, particularly in rotary screw and piston models. By cooling the lubricating oil, air-cooled oil coolers prevent overheating, reduce wear, and ensure efficient operation in applications ranging from construction equipment to manufacturing processes.
Air-cooled oil coolers dissipate heat from compressor oil using high-efficiency fans, maintaining optimal viscosity and reducing friction in high-duty systems. Constructed with durable aluminum or stainless steel, they handle oil flow rates from 5 to 500 GPM and pressures up to 300 PSI. Their water-free design eliminates the need for water treatment, lowering maintenance costs and making them ideal for mobile or water-scarce environments. These coolers ensure consistent performance and protect compressor components from thermal stress.
These oil coolers serve compressors in automotive repair, small workshops, heavy machinery, and industrial manufacturing. Key features include compact heat exchanger designs, low-pressure drop configurations, and customizable options like AC or DC power, NPT or SAE connections, and ASME-compliant construction. Optional accessories, such as oil filters and temperature gauges, enhance performance for critical applications, ensuring reliability and compliance with industry standards.
